scenes from a life

there was a time when this scene would have horrified the baron.  those days are long past.

a red lip

the baron, having recently taken to carrying a purse, is also (kind of considering) embracing la maquillage.   womanhood, quelle surprise!

study in potty training

yes, that is a potty training seat, minus the insert, so that the smallest member of the baron's family may pee directly onto the lawn while comfortably seated.  the solitary pink flip-flop really makes the scene, right?

bouncing for spring

french toast kind of morning

hexagon quilt

the baron has been working on this quilt for over a year, which, now you mention it, does seem like too long a time.  but the end is near!  soon, perhaps within the week, she'll be done with the quilting and can move on to the binding.  a baron can hope, anyway.

in the yard

fly a kite

why yes, the baron did use square lashing and a clove hitch, as well as a trash bag and washi tape to make this kite!  what a keen eye you have, reader!

also: no, it did not fly.  but much fun was had anyway.

playground days

such good days
