wishing you a very merry



 There's something distinctly peaceful and beautiful about Christmas...

I hope this festive feeling surrounds you and that you can savor to spirit of the season.

I always want to put aside the crush of "to dos" and slow it all down...
and this year -- somehow -- I have just a bit...
I love that ee gift and play Santa to show our appreciation for those we love...
...Christmas reminds me in its festiveness just how much there is in my world treasure and celebrate ...
 Most of all my family...
 ...and my wonderful friends.

I hope the Christmas season brings you joy and the peace to enjoy it...
 ...from my home to yours... Merry Christmas

#14 on the 13th...peek at the week


...linking up with Life Rearranged to share a peek at my week in cell phone imagery...
Hope you all enjoyed a wonderful Easter...

...took a few days and brought the kids to Colonial Williamsburg for a dose of history and a change of scenery during our Easter break...

This fella is a military history expert, and re-enactor...
Strolling the streets with a parasol...ahhh
I wanted to shop in this dress shop!

I loved every minute of the Easter celebrations we hosted, so great to be with family...here are a few peeks at the table...


Ohhhh, Joee and Dylan are up to new tricks and wonderful new creations have arrived from their Cart Before the Horse studio in Oregon...I collected their works personally before we started to sell them here at Earth Angels, and I remain smitten....
...just look at this bathing beauty...

...my Eagle Scout of a hubby is back in a troop...awwww...love that he is getting into this with our 11 year old son...

Did you get yours???? We did our massive mailing for the upcoming Spring Fling at the renown and oh so gorgeous Schuyler Pond Home & Garden in Saratoga Springs, NY...sure hope you can join us....
...it was crazy hair day at school, the local Odyssey of the Mind team is raising money to build a greenhouse for the local farms that were devastated by the hurricane last fall...bring a buck and wear your hair any way you want...we had one blue haired kid, one silver and one with a Mohawk...
It was time to do inventory on the various pottery we have here, including Earth Girl...
...and Thistle Hill...sad to say Kim is no longer creating so we will be saying goodbye to the last of her creations through a big sale...I need to get cracking on some more email newsletters with her offerings! I adore her antique linen dollies with stoneware faces...so funky folk art...

Spring is in bloom everywhere and I love the Forsythia....we had it at our first home in Queens and I loved seeing it through the dining room windows...need to plant some if it...
Hope you enjoyed your week...how did you celebrate? What says it's Spring to you?

xxoo Jen
