Working and Playing

Just wanted to share some glimpses of our lives over the last couple of days.
~Sarah and Abraham playing with the sawdust from Mike drilling out the birch branch pencil holders~ (We are planning to build a workshop this spring so this will not have to be in our home soon.)

~Abraham helping Mike apply the natural beeswax/oil finish to the bottom of our walking blocks.

~So much fun can be had with a simple paper bag... Abraham growling away, pretending to be a scary monster.~
Warm wishes, Tonya

  13. Oh my goodness, I just noticed that Abraham has wet pants in the picture of him with the bag over his head - we are working on potty training. Oh, well, a snapshot of reality from our life. Warm wishes, Tonya
