Photos from around the house

--I have always thought that a cool photo project would be a bunch of black and white photos that were         of things that we associate strongly with certain colors (those flowers are really yellow). 

--The porch is real nice this time of year. 

--These days I cannot drink enough coffee. 

--Big week for shows. Unfortunately Bird Man was canceled, but First Aid Kit rocked the house. 

--I got that plaid skirt. It's from Pendleton. I love it. That skirt is vintage, but I found one like it here. 

--It's amazing how lighting candles changes the mood so much. 

--I love keeping flowers in the house. 

--Handmade Napkins. 

--So happy about something.

When it comes to wood working skills my father has them. While I was at home he was busying himself with the making of wooden creations for his four grandchildren. Our own home is filled with forgotten wooden trucks and hand shaped rolling pins, relics of our childhood, made by dad years ago.

I went to the wood working shop to spend time with him. He told me over and over again that I was making him nervous. When he finished the truck he was less than satisfied with the product. I didn't know what to say, because I thought that it was beautiful.
