Mama and Baby

We stopped by the Henningsen's old farmhouse on our way to Easter dinner. It was empty as they were transitioning between renters and was the perfect place to waltz around in and take pictures. 

Easter in Iowa

For Easter this year, we traveled to DeWitt, Iowa to celebrate with Piercen's extended family. Luther's Easter morning basket contained magnet toys and bunny ears from Nana and Ollie (P's parents), stuffed animals from Scout and Joe (my parents), and books from us. His favorite gift though was the quality time he spent with Bailey, the family dauschhund.  Many thanks to the Henningsen and Oliver families for putting us up and for feeding us so well. I'm still having glorious flashbacks to that banana meringue pie.

Recent listings in the shop. I've put in a lot of work the past two weeks and am excited to have 50 items available. My goal is to have 100 by October 1st. A rather lofty goal, but attainable I think, if I put in the time.

We're headed out this weekend to celebrate the Easter holiday with Piercen's extended family in Iowa. I'm very much looking forward to it, but I still miss spending Holy Week and Easter Sunday with the members of St. John's Windish Lutheran back in Bethlehem. The Windish do it right.

Wishing you a lovely weekend and a holiday full of peace and reflection.

Block Mountains

Playing with Luther's blocks. Some of these shapes remind me of the North Carolina mountain ranges where my grandparents lived during their later years. I miss visiting them. 

Julianne and Luther

A sampling of the pictures from Julianne's visit. Luther got a whole week of unadulterated, goof-ball-laden, Aunt-Dewey-attention, and he loved every minute of it. Miss you already Deweyanne.

Also, it's my mom's birthday--Happy Birthday Mom!!
