summer vacation

Summer has just begun, and yet I know we will be caught up in happy busy days. So... this blog will be taking a summer vacation; no writing, but I will post pictures from time to time. Wishing everyone I love a very happy summer.

The Three Billy Goats Gruff and a crazy looking troll for Jonas' third birthday. This was a really fun set to make for him, and was inspired by the wee finger puppet mice on the front of this sweet book:

a trip to Mexico

Eoghan's dance performance in early May. Our local dance studio puts together a yearly end of year performance, and this year's theme was "A Trip Around the World". Eoghan's destination was Mexico. It is always great to see all the dancers in costume and having a great time. E's class was the second youngest; J.'s class was the youngest and their destination was Antarctica (they were penguins). Jonas did not perform however as I thought it would be to overwhelming for him to be up on stage (he was the youngest in the class). I hope you have fun watching the video.
