    WOW!!! You’ve been sewing up a storm. No wonder you’ve been so quiet. That must be taking up a lot of your time. I’m loving those owls. They are great.
    Our Monday challenge was from the weekend…again.

    The puppet show looks fun. How nice to do some sewing outside. Anything done outside feels refreshing.

    We did our outdoor Monday on Sunday. We went for a walk in the city with lions (not real). http://www.timetocraft.co.uk/?p=2422

    I blogged our Outdoor Monday. It’s all about the Agave succulent we’ve been fascinated with.

    I love the energy of each member of the family being absorbed by what they are doing and yet you are all together sharing space at the same time. That is a special kind of family harmony.

    Here’s what we were up to today.

    The little hootenannies are too cute!

    I love the puppets. They have so much character. Isn’t it amazing what a child can do with sticks and stones. I love to just watch that process of creating worlds and friends from their imaginations. Enjoy your week.

    I love puppets, and those are so cute. We usually reuse / recycle our old socks, but now I got an idea for some felted puppets. We spent day visiting Amicalola Falls. It was great day!

    I have decided to come out and play. ;)
