A historic moment.

M had her first game of Monopoly today.

Soapstone Carving!

Above is E's soapstone-carved fish necklace. Cool, eh? She also did a person, but it broke. )o:


...and M's carvings! Two fishes, and a shape.

What a cool experience for them. E is eager to get some soapstone to work with now. (o:

Little Artists

Tomorrow will be fun, fun, fun at school!

The kids have ongoing workshops with an artist who is exploring drawing techniques with them, plus tomorrow there is a one-day workshop with soapstone carver Michael ManyEagles. These workshops are for everyone, k-8, so both kids will get the opportunity to work with him!

Can't wait to see what they make! Will post results after.

Cool Kid

Cool rocker chick(ette) by evening, still a regular kid by day! Having a spot of fun before going to a concert to hear Uncle Rick (shown here unexplainably sideways)!

Mmmm...floor pie

Mmmmm. Floor pie.

(Simpsons anyone?)

Trying Hard to be a Good Listener

There's M, trying to be a good little listener, sporting her new flame swimsuit!

MOOSt Exciting Drive

Sadly, my camera was at home - but the other morning, on the way back from school, I saw a MOOSE! It was contemplating the highway (thankfully decided against), then turned & was loitering in someone's yard. (In the country, but just a front yard like any other). That'd be a strange sight - look out in the morning to find a moose staring back at you. (Would you want to give him a muffin?)
