BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND
Last time I taught Telling Stories Deeply, many of the students wanted me to teach it again. I was 9-months pregnant with Nathaniel. I had no idea if BPS would allow me to teach it again and when I would be able to. I am delighted to tell you that they have offered to rerun it and you can register here.
The number one feedback was that we make the class longer so I asked them to insert two break weeks in between so you'd have more time to digest the information, ask questions, etc. Fair warning, the material is exactly the same, including the audio, journaling spots, etc. So please don't get mad if you register again and realize that it's the same class. It's the SAME CLASS. I am hoping to put together a long list of resources and some more inspirational stuff this time around, depending on how much free time Nathaniel gives me. If you have any questions about the class, feel free to ask away. I hope to see you there!  52 QUESTIONS AND TECHNIQUES - TAG 22
 Trying to catch up. This week's question was: "Which direction am I going?" I am choosing to go in the direction of joy. I want to be happy and I am working on feeling more peaceful and helping myself bloom and be more joyful. I think happiness is intentional and can be self-taught. I used dabbers paint and masking to do the butterfly and then just another simple stamp and Thickers and I am done.  I am combining Emily Falconbridge's art journal questions with trying a new technique each week. You can see the full list: here. DAILY PHOTOS - JULY 2 2009
 Look at that boy. I keep thinking his eyes are turning brown but then I see the photos and they still look blue to me...Today was a great day. I got a ton done and I feel great about it. Our house is finally starting to look like a house and not a box collection. The garage still sucks but one day at a time. Here's another Nathaniel, sucking on his hand. 
And here's David in his full Buzz Lightyear costume.  And it's been a while since I had a tulip. :) 
I also ordered our first CSA basket today. We're scheduled to receive Broccoli, zucchini, squash medley, green beans, Valencia oranges, pluots, strawberries, and nectarines. Let's see how yummy they are. CATALYST 68 - SO MUCH BETTER
 Catalyst sixty-eight is: Did your life turn out how you imagined? my words: Even in my wildest dreams and biggest hopes, I could never have predicted such an amazing life. Such incredible children. Such a loving husband. So much success. So much luck. I am so so so thankful and so blessed. This week we also have the honor of being featured by scrapstreet.com magazine. Make sure to check it out and big thanks to Stacey. A MILLION MEMORIES - JULY KIT
 Here's the beautiful July kit designed by the wonderful Mia! Don't you love it? DAILY PHOTOS - JULY 1 2009
 Rabbit Rabbit. Happy July Everyone. I need to work on figuring out how to take good photos in this house. I haven't sorted it out yet. No energy. I did open all the book boxes today and I'm doing something fun with the books and I will post ab out it as soon as I am done. Nathaniel is really whining right now so I guess this will be it for today. Oh and I did make some art! yey for art! DAILY PHOTOS - JUNE 30 2009
 He looks smiley but he's been fussy almost all day and went on a full-out wailing spree when we were in Safeway today. Despite that, I got to run some errands and unpacked 12 more boxes. The end is still not in sight but I am feeling more hopeful. No art today. Maybe tomorrow...  And here's one of David. He's been wearing the Buzz Lightyear costume daily lately. I didn't think he was into dressing up but obviously I was wrong. He's so cute in it.  DAILY PHOTOS - JUNE 29 2009
 My friend Nicholas and Ty came over today and David immediately took Ty hostage and Ty was generous enough to play with him and read to him. He's the best. So is Nicholas who helped me! Nathaniel had his 2-month appointment today which meant shots which meant a fever of 101. Poor boy.   DAILY PHOTOS - JUNE 28 2009
 Quiet day today. I decided not to do any unpacking today. Just some rest time. Family time and a small project for Big Picture Scrapbooking.   David and Daddy playing. Can you see his joy?  DAILY PHOTOS - JUNE 27 2009
 David has never ever been in water. Ever. Not one time since he was born. For the first four years, his pediatrician recommended otherwise so we never took swimming classes. But this summer, I wanted to register him for classes and see how he does in the water. I was a bit nervous but never said anything to him. Well, it turns out he was a superstar! From the first moment, he jumped, he put his head under water, he made bubbles. It was like he's always been in water. I can tell this will be a fun class!  Jake's parents have been in town and before they left, I wanted to make sure to capture some photos of them and Nathaniel. In this photo aboce he definitely looks just like me.

 The Hulk David! He's been having so much fun with this costume. And here's one of the baby.  And just in case you think I don't have one from yesterday for Nathaniel, here it is. David kissing him while his grandmother holds him. Much loved.  DAILY PHOTOS - JUNE 25 2009
 Love this boy and this very handsome man.  DAILY PHOTOS - JUNE 24 2009
 Look at that look! And, of course, here's the sweet boy.  DAILY PHOTOS - JUNE 23 2009

 Those stunning eyes. I wonder if Nathaniel will have them, too.
