Sunglasses

This is a scrapbook layout of my 2 year old Grandson having some fun with some sunglasses. The title says, "Get yourself some cheap sunglasses." The title is from the ZZ Top song, Cheap Sunglasses.

The sunglasses in my layout where from Cher from a mingle we did in our art group. It was my very first mingle in our art group, AAWA (An Affair with Art).

Summer Sun - Think Monday - Think ATC

This is my ATC which is a paint-over for Think Monday - Think ATC where the theme is Summer Sun. This made me think of the Beatles song, Here Comes the Sun. Here are the lyrics:

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun, and I say it's all right Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here Here comes the sun, here comes the sun and I say it's all right Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here Here comes the sun, here comes the sun and I say it's all right Sun, sun, sun, here it comes... Sun, sun, sun, here it comes... Sun, sun, sun, here it comes... Sun, sun, sun, here it comes... Sun, sun, sun, here it comes... Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting Little darling, it seems like years since it's been clear Here comes the sun, here comes the sun, and I say it's all right It's all right

Puff the Magic Dragon ATC

This ATC is a mingle with my online art group - An Affair with Art - AAWA. The theme was Puff the magic dragon.

Here are the words to the song:

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the seaAnd frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee,Little jackie paper loved that rascal puff,And brought him strings and sealing wax and other fancy stuff.

OhPuff, the magic dragon lived by the seaAnd frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee,

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea and frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee.

Together they would travel on a boat with billowed sail Jackie kept a lookout perched on puffs gigantic tail,Noble kings and princes would bow wheneer they came,Pirate ships would lower their flag when puff roared out his name. oh!Puff, the magic dragon lived by the seaAnd frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee,

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the seaAnd frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee.

A dragon lives forever but not so little boys Painted wings and giant rings make way for other toys.One grey night it happened, jackie paper came no more And puff that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless roar.

His head was bent in sorrow, green scales fell like rain,Puff no longer went to play along the cherry lane.Without his life-long friend, puff could not be brave,So puff that mighty dragon sadly slipped into his cave.

oh!Puff, the magic dragon lived by the seaAnd frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee,Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee.

Fairy - Think Monday - Think ATC

This is my little fairy discovering a bird nest for Think Monday - Think ATC.

shelves are up!

My DH and I got my new shelves up today! I am very excited about them!

I'm working on organizing what is in the baskets and labeling them. Wahoo!

Now I'll bet that it takes me a while to remember where everything is.

All the shelves and canvas baskets are from Lowes.

Update on the birds

There is at least one baby bird in the barn swallow's nest. The adults fuss at me and dive at me every time I go down to the barn but I am so happy to see them again this year. The eat insects so they are always a welcome site here.

June 4 update:
I saw a little bird sitting in the barn today and it flew just as I started to walk into the barn. I think it was one of the baby barn swallows.
