New Dress

Finished making my dress yesterday. The girls like it but Roy doesn't. What do you think?

Only in Chicago.....

No colour changes have been made.... it's REALLY
THAT green......OMG.
Check out the tourists.... but they looked quite normal.
Nice 'Spring' Chicago weather...
Had to steal the hat to keep 'dry'
Even the police were impressed with my kids....
They dye EVERYTHING !
If he kisses you - you get good luck for a year.....so he says.
(hasn't worked yet!)
Have no idea what relevance the 'blues brothers' have
with St.Patrick's Day - but they ARE from Chicago...

Sunday movie

We all went to see this today. Roy and the girls loved it. I don't know why but it really didn't do anything for me. It was too much and too little at the same time. Maybe I'm just an old grumpy sourpuss ;) Have you seen it yet?

We made pizzas tonight :)

Late Summer skies...

It's that beautiful time of the evening when the clouds are gathering and moving over towards the west, birdsong fills the air, soft light makes this faded city look more intensely vibrant and the river breeze moves the curtains...
I've discovered a photographer on Flickr - Careenin - whose work I love. Some of her shots are very moving and some are quite quirky and fun. Did I ever give you the link to my Flickr photostream? It's not as interesting as this one I'm afraid and I'm very bad at keeping it up to date. I often find messages from people weeks later... Anyway, you can find it here.

Wish I had something to tell you...

It's raining again ... been raining all week so I should be really happy ...
... love this photo taken in London over the holidays ...
... found some arty photos to share with you ... I like the bubbles ...
... I like the shadows ...
... not arty, but just thankful for these two.

Aud cleans up at swimming end of season party.

Most 'decorated' ........Audrey with some of her swimming ribbons
that had not been presented to her. This stash was 12 - to add to the other 38 she
already has on the back of her door. She was very popular.
