Buzzards in High Springs

We are having a convention of Buzzards in town.

Each day they meet at 6:45PM to talk about the days work.

Then and Now

Do you believe this?  That is Stevie when he was three years old and that is his daughter , Samantha at almost three years old.  Look at the eyes and the smile.  Stay tuned for more blasts from the past!!!!!

This might be a sign........

We were driving home the other day and this was in front of our car.  That gives a whole new meaning to Bar-B-Que to go.  See the fork hanging on the right.  The wood is stacked neatly on the trunk. I bet they have the sauce inside the car.  OOOOHHHH I can't wait for the food to be done.

Then I looked out the back window.  Yikes we are being stalked by a van held together with rubber bands.

Painting with Sparklers

Celebrating July 4th

I have learned how to set the camera to "bulb" which allows me to capture sparkler painting.
Michael painted Katelyn's car.

See the snowman.  Look at the bottom of the photo.  There are three Katelyns........

This was the masterpiece.  It took three volunteers...Michael, Katelyn and Franna Nanna.  Each sparkler was tied to a string.  The idea was to make a tunnel.
In case you want to know the mosquito's were just awful.

This is a secret message.
Can you tell what it says.  
Only  Katelyn knows.

Card class with Jessica Sprague: Hybrid / Digital

Just a few of the cards I made this week.

This card used watercolor paper. 

I first did the watercolor and let it dry and then printed the flowers with the ink jet printer.

Wow, look I found matching envelopes for this card.

This is a picture of the clouds off Clearwater Beach.

Fairy Godmother of Etiquette

Once upon a time there was a Fairy Godmother of Etiquette.

She taught the children to say please and thank you.

See the fairy dust.

Say the magic words and smiles will be all around you.

Oh what a tiny horse. Now this is magic!!!!!

When I moved from south Florida I was sure I had left all the Fairy Godmothers there shopping at Bloomies. But NO!!!

Here they are in High Springs.....waving the Queen's wave.

(Hello Helen)

Sometimes the Fairy Godmother of Etiquette goes overboard.

Join me in the Congo line anyone?

Many of the children came to me and said "I love you Fairy Godmother!"

Oh my what a fun day, nothing like a crown and a wand to create magic.

Fairy Princess Tea Party

This is my magic wand. Owned by the Fairy Godmother of Etiquette.

Samantha came for the day to be a Fairy Princess.

Every child received a crown.



The real hit at the party were the tiny little horses.

The photographer came as the Photo Fairy and really got into costume.

Many of the children came in fairy princess dresses.

Snow White made an appearance.

Oh I wish you could have seen this darling dress. It was so beautiful.

Love the hat.

Everyone was given a magic wand and there sure was magic in the air.

Are those just the cutest wings you have ever seen?

Shari the Fairy Godmother of Make-up. She put little stars on all the children's faces and made them up so beautiful. The children loved the makeup fairy.

Fairy Godmother Arlene is to be thanked for her vision to have this tea party.

This is Merri the Tooth Fairy. She made little molar and pink toothbrush cookies. Many of the children thanked her for the money they found under their pillows.

Fairy Godmother of Feathers, Allison, has a peacock that lives in her yard. Oh I hope she did not pull those feather out of that bird. Allison is a former elementary school teacher and taught us to talk in quite voices and march around the room to "It's a Small World." Next thing we knew we were doing the Congo line, so much for decorum.

Ayurveda Yoga School
