I promise this is not turning into a dog blog...I just have to share the adorable news - Flip won the cutest pet contest at my son's school : )
Back to regular crafting updates later this week, I'm making some progress on one of my WIP's (works in progress) that I can't wait to share!
Begonias, so far, are the only flower I can seem to keep alive. Thankfully I think they are beautiful. They remind me of this Botanica fabric by Alexander Henry:
which also reminds me of Frida Kahlo and her inspirational style:

and this book that I must get my hands on:
(Self Portrait in a Velvet Dress - Frida's Wardrobe - Fashion from the Museo Frida Kahlo - Amazon.com)
We had it all planned out, Mom and I. We were going to go on a lovely Mother's Day hike down a trail we had never ventured. Until. Until we realized that the hike was oh-so-near a very large antique barn. Change of plans! The boys let us have our way without a peep or complaint.
So now Mom and I have decided that "Let's go for a hike" really means "Let's go antiquing". What a wonderful memory and what a wonderful Mother I have!
