Overheard in the car on the way home from daycare.
Roxanne to Thomas Elliot: ” Dontcha know that dinosaurs are extinct!”
Thomas Elliot’s reply: “Some dinosaurs stink and some dinosaurs smell good!”
I laughed so hard at these two. Love them to pieces.
Kitty cats show up in our back yard and since Bruce and I are big softies, we get them spayed/neutered and give them names. Which pretty much means they are new additions to the family.
This is Ivy. She showed up about four years ago. Well, I ran over her paw while she was sleeping under my car about a week ago. I feel so bad but hopefully every thing will heal correctly and she will not lose her leg. She has a purple cast right now and Rox has been practicing her Veterinarian skills.
Here she is singing to Ivy. “Cause that’s what veterinarians do to make kitties feel better.”

I would love to be able to decorate the whole house all at one time with an unlimited budget but alas I do not have that luxury. I do a little at a time and day dream a lot.
Here is the dining room. The table was the same color as the floor. Was not crazy about it so I had it painted today with high gloss black paint.
And I ordered the Geneva rug from Ballard Designs. It will not be in till April. Can’t wait.
The suede parson style chairs are from West Elm.
The picture was a Valentine’s day present from an old boyfriend. It is a Picasso poster from his blue period. This year, I will get it a proper frame for it. And Bruce is ok with the picture because he knows how much I love the image. Thanks babe.

The Geneva rug. I selected the natural one. Image from Ballard’s

Steph’s birthday present that I have not sent her yet. I promise you will get it soon.
The shelf is from Miss Mandy’s. Love that store.

And I made a trip to the nursery and purchased a Debutante camellia. The buds have not bloomed yet so I grabbed the following image from a google image search to show you how beautiful she is.
She looks like a peony! Yes, it was a great day.
