Boys, Baseballs, Boxes, Books and Bubbles

We have been TOTALLY enjoying this great spring weather! Climbing trees, playing baseball, golfing in the backyard with bouncy balls, you name it. We even caught a spider, which did not change either of my boys into Spider-man (much to their dismay). It also amazes me at just how entertaining blowing bubbles can be...I really do think they are wonderful, and so does Eli. Gee I wonder where he gets THAT from? Also, I am happy yo report that I received all three books that I ordered from Amazon, Lotta Jansdotter "Prints" (which is FABULOUS), "The Creative Family" by Amanda Soule and (drumroll) Martha Stewart's "Cookies" (which is double FABULOUS)! Bonus time...I also received my mother's day gift "The Splendid Table's How to Eat Supper" early! I guess I was not suppose to open that one yet, but seriously it did not say that on the box :) That one is on my night stand and will require cover to cover reading. It is a beautifully designed book (then again so are all four of them)...I had to look through it once to satisfy the lust for eye candy that every graphic designer has and then read it for content :) All in all, life is good over here, not just because of the books but because I am getting to do what I love to do, take care of my family and make art. By the way I let Ammon decide which cookie to make first from the Cookie book. His pick, the soft and chewy chocolate chip cookie. Classic. Dependable. Delicious! I am off to go see where my Eli went...it is too quiet right now. Nathan (that's my wonderful hubby who bought me "How to Eat Supper") and Ammon are having a boy weekend, so Eli and I are hanging out together. I'll have to get some pictures up later once the little one is asleep. See you later!
