Yeah, So we've been a little busy lately and the priority of the blog has fallen down on the totem pole.  So here's the Reader's Digest version of our last few weeks:

Linnea staging a store in her bedroom. 

 She repositioned the bookshelf and strategically staged the items for sale.

                                                      

Our new home... we had to move... the story is not really worth telling unless we're talking in person.

We call this the "Secret Garden".  It's a great little pathway through a xeriscape garden at school between pre-school and the elementary school.  It's not necessarily hidden, but it's "secret" because no one uses it.  In it we find lantana, peanut grass, succulents and enough winged flying-things to keep a bug zapper happy for an evening.  It's also a nice place to walk before school to avoid the speeding Range Rovers and Prados that are exiting the school after drop-off.   This picture was taken on our way to Family Day.

Our new view from our new home...  it's even more spectacular at night.
