Can We Play On Your Bed?

08 Jun 2011

I think these would have come out better if I had a better camera, but I think they’re still fun.
Who cares about a little grain when you’re crashing a Bed Party?
Tigery had lots of fun.

Also, you can see our new headboard! (barely – Oscar piled on all the pillows.)
And lest the antique headboard seem too “granny”, I hung modern art above.

(Rainy) Weekend in Sebastopol

05 Jun 2011


(thanks anthropologie)

The rain did not stop us. It was so cozy with the fire going. Mark and I got to take a nap on the sofa! (At. the. same. time. :) ) We read books (started Treasure Island), played games (Oscar beat us all at Chinese checkers), and made spaetzle.

And, the cherries were ripe! This year the birds didn’t get them before we could. During breaks in the rain, we walked around, and breathed in all the fresh air. Oscar climbed a big fallen tree. We chased wild turkeys away from the vegetable patch. Booker didn’t even see them. The sun was out for a decent amount of time. We got these fun shots:

Thanks Omi for such a fun time! Opi, best steaks ever! xo
