It all started with these adorable red heads. The boy is mine and that grinning girl is Julie's. They had preschool together, you know the one where the moms take turns teaching. We both had the same ideals for children; read, play, cook and build. In fact these two spent hours in the sandbox building the eighth world wonder.
Then we started running together really early in the morning. Creating ideas in our heads and getting fit. Here we have just finished a half -marathon.
Here we are making Christmas Stockings at another cabin for our friends and neighbors. This was around 1999. Julie had an old wool green coat. We picked it apart and made stockings out of it. We have had many endeavors since then. Our newest endeavor the art nest. This came from an idea to nuture the artist soul as well as making art.
So for now ...............we are Feathering the Nest getting ready for wonderful artists to come and share these few days with us.
