100 degrees? Hit the beach!

So much cooler in the ocean and under the shade of a beach umbrella. Feel like a lizard on a hot rock... :)

Gone gardening

More at www.childrensrainbowgarden.blogspot.com. (Sorry to keep posting this way but wanted any visitors to know I'm still here!). :)  I'm inspired by a new love of rainbows and magic per Childhood Magic (a lovely blog I found soon after we named our garden (rainbows for the diversity, health and joy we hope to share there)).  As a child of late 70's the only rainbows I ever had in my life were those nerdy rainbow suspenders I wore during the roller skating parties we had in elementary school gym.  So happy to be having more fun with them these days.  ;)

Taking a little break in the shade

 More resting (maybe more resting than gardening but that's ok!) ;)

Been gardening!

For anyone who might stop here, so sorry I haven't posted in awhile. I've still taken many neat pictures but haven't gotten them to here! :) We've been spending some time in our community garden and I've promised to try to keep that site updated once every week or two. Please stop back here but you can also go to our garden blog site if you are interested. That would be wonderful. You can check it out at www.childrensrainbowgarden.blogspot.com. Have a wonderful day! ~Marykaye

Fairy Festival!

Way too many pics but so much fun! These are from a wonderful local event called The Fairy Festival, which took place on May Day, 2010 at Spoutwood Farm near Glen Rock, Pa. My favorite part was seeing big fairies (parents) carrying all of the tired little fairies (adorable little ones in full fairy attire) out of the woods by the end of the day! We had wonderful food (banana nutella crepes, fairy punch and grilled corn), saw wonderful wares and enjoyed fairy mazes, little fairy homes throughout the forest paths and a great drum circle at the end. We even toured a neat cottage and met a moss man! :)

Wish you were here

Happy Wednedsay!
