They’re so good...I love them with all my being and they deserve the world
They say friends come in all shapes and sizes... Jotto the baby elephant was just 1-month-old when he fell in the well and separated from his herd. David Shelldrick Wildlife Trust (DSWT) took him to an elephant orphanage in Kenya where he could heal until he was ready to go back to the wild. Little did the rescuers know that even though there were plenty of elephants at the shelter, Jotto will become BFF with… an ostrich named Pea!
Our cats confound us and we are often confused by their actions. Click to see some hilarious photos that will explain exactly what I mean!
I am sitting down to a small after dinner decaf coffee in the bunny mug my daughter gave me for Christmas. It's on the small size and I love...
During my study of felting artists, I've come across a few who are especially inspiring! I love looking at the animals of Robin Joy Andreae - they are amazingly life like. Robin adds polymer clay and real props to her sculptures adding to the illusion of their being alive. Be sure to look at her site - these two photos are only a little taste of the beautiful work she does! Alaskan artist Kay Petal creates needle felted dolls - the celebrity dolls will definitely bring a few chuckles to your Friday! Her site shows wonderful recreations of everyone from Willie Nelson to Sarah Palin. If you scroll down to Conan O'Brien, Kay has a stop action animation Lil Conan vs. The Bear. If you're thinking "I want to make art like this!" Washington artist Laurie Sharp has a video showing her putting together a needle felted bunny. Her site has great photographs of her creations in naturalistic settings and a tutorial on how to make a woolly bear caterpillar.
Hundreds of pictures of birds edited to have human arms are flying around social networking sites, message boards and - where else - Twitter.
The other day, in my ongoing quest for art that makes my heart sing, I stumbled upon the work of UK-based artist Vanessa Cooper. Can you see why I instantly fell in love? Why shouldn’t doggie…

LITTLE YELLOW BUTTERFLIES FLUTTERING AROUND MY YARD & A CUTE BABY ELEPHANT (NOT IN MY YARD :) It was really cold for several days. Now, it's been in the 60's and very comfortable. A friend in Wisconsin sent me a picture of their first snowfall. I can't imagine living in that kind of weather for months at a time. Because of our warmer weather, we have lots of little yellow butterflies. Two different shades of yellow are fluttering all around my yard. I'm glad I still have lots of flowers that haven't frozen back, yet. Yesterday, I got some pansies for my flower pots. I always put them around my front door because they're so fragrant. And, the butterflies love them, too. Isn't this the cutest little elephant, climbing all over it's sibling!! LOVE the baby elephant!
Currently life.... I am back friends! It's been a while since I've done a life update so I thought this might be the perfect time. Let's jump in! Currently celebrated Easter and this year I was able to have my mom and dad with us, as well as my aunt and uncle. Being with family is always a gift and although our province continues to struggle and race against the VOC (variant of COVID), I am happy to report that all of our parents have received their first shots!!!! Also, one can never get too old for the Easter bunny to visit and the girls enjoy receiving his gifts and doing all the egg dying just as they did before, although they aren't into taking pictures like they did before. Currently feeling. Well my friends I am coming out of a week of sadness to be honest. Our beloved pup of 12 years, Tanner, took a turn for the worst the week leading up to Easter and we had to make the difficult decision to put him down. Although we knew that this would happen due to his prognosis in August, its never easy to let our furry loved ones go. Our home and hearts have an empty feeling, but we do know how much joy, love and laughter he brought into our home over the years. I have also been reflecting a great deal on how this signals an end to a a chapter of our lives. Tanner was there through my second pregnancy, baby Anya coming home, toddlers, first days of school, my masters program, camping adventures, buying our cabin and spending the last 4 summers at our lake, pandemic life, and so on. The girls are now both tween/teens, 14 & 11, their lives changing and becoming more independent, and Tanner was that last piece of my life as a mom of "little people". He was always one of my little kids, tagging along on our puddle jumping adventures, splash park fun, trick or treating at Halloween, et. He will be deeply missed but I am thankful for all the years he gave us and that we were all able to cuddle him and be with him right to the end. He went peacefully and with love surrounding him. Currently reading. The Book of Lost Names by Kristin Harmel. Get it. Read it. You will NOT regret it. It's a beautiful story of a young French woman and man, who work tirelessly to save Jewish children during WWII, while also preserving their identities so that they will not be lost forever. Incredible story that will fill your heart with hope in humanity. Currently watching. Logan and I don't watch a ton of TV but we usually sit down for 30 minutes before bed. We LOVE Modern Family! It makes us laugh each and every night. If you have watched it we are definitely Clair and Phil. Currently listening. I listen to a variety of podcasts in the mornings when I am getting ready for work but recently I listened to Abby Wombach on Dare to Lead by Brene Brown and was completely enthralled and her book Wolfpack is already purchased and on it's way to me! Currently dreaming of a trip to visit my sister and family in Victoria, BC at the end of June. Fingers crossed it happens, as it'll be almost 2 years since we've seen them. We hope to be vaccinated by then and safely enjoy some outings with our combined families. We hope to enjoy hiking, surfing, biking, cooking, and just each others company. We also have a plan to go and explore Tofino, BC which will be a first for our family and I am hoping to check an item off of my bucket list, SURFING. Full disclosure I tried it in Mexico when I was 22 but I only did it a few times, and this will be an opportunity to actually take lessons and give it a try. To be honest, I am very worried that I wont be able to do it, but I am not going to let that feeling stop me from trying. Photograph Currently wearing. Since spring decided to arrive early for Saskatchewan, I've been happily sporting bare legs when it's not freezing cold, my new schaket when I don't still need my parka, and overall enjoying wearing less layers!!!! What a gift this early spring has been for all of our mental health. A bright, warm, sunny, spring day is good for the soul. What have you been up to lately?
