Amazing Creating

So, Bethy and I have nicknamed this the 'summer of creating'! We've had so much fun getting together and "creating" while our kids are napping! There is something about 4 sleeping children and one working man upstairs that enhances the creative processes! Of course having 4 sleeping at once is nothing short of a minor miracle, so we try to take advantage of that time.

Here is the latest project. We are transforming the front room into an enchanted forest! (As long as we can call one beautiful and enchanting tree a forest!)

Our once barren and naked wall is now a welcome oasis!

ahhhhhhh. I can feel myself relaxing every time I look at it! I feel refreshed in much the same way as when I look at freshly washed, sparkly clean windows (and w/ three little kids, that is a luxury I don't get to enjoy much these days).

And what does Alexander think of his new tree?!? Check it out!
