we got a smaller tree this year
and with a little help from a stool, she got to put the star on top all on her own for the first time
happy monday friends
hope you all enjoyed your weekend
ARTsy wednesday
the big crafty is this saturday and sunday and Lilian will be participating again like she did last year
she will be selling her original blockprints, prints of original paintings/watercolors and stickers based on original drawings (like the one above)
she did so well last year
hope she does even better this year

she had her closest four friends come over early saturday afternoon for a sleepover into sunday afternoon
before the madness began, i asked her to step into the light
and the camera
happy monday friends!

Lilian
on the morning of her tenth birthday
ten
she is ten and she has had the most wonderful time celebrating this double digit birthday
happy monday friends!
and then she turned ten
yesterday she was nine and today she is ten
i am trying to grasp how we got here so quickly
too quickly
ten seemed like such a far away number and here we are today
a whole decade
two full hands
double digits
too quickly
yesterday afternoon i dusted off my nikon and documented this girl on her last day of being nine
may she continue to shine brighter with every year as she grows
ARTsy wednesday
with both Lilian and i creating so much art lately i decided to start documenting it here again with these ARTsy wednesday posts
here are some of her recent works
happy ARTsy wednesday!

Lilian
on halloween dressed up as Mal from the descendants with some of her besties before heading out to go trick or treating
when i first began this 52 project in twenty thirteen (here), i wanted it to be all about Lily (of course) but i also wanted it to be about photography
i made it a point to only post pictures taken with my nikon or canon
Lily was so small then
she wasn’t in school and we would spend the days together going on adventures or just playing at home and in the yard
there was time for photography with the nikon then
at the end of every week i would have so many pictures of Lily to try to choose from (it was always so hard)
throughout the years, as she has grown and has started school and after school activities full time, it has been more challenging to keep this project going with the same photography quality
there are weeks when i go through my phone (shameful) looking for a picture of Lily for this project
like this past week
there were none
life is busy
Lilian is busy
so here she is this week with a group of friends
and this is who she is these days
a busy almost ten year old who is fun, creative, loving, honest, active and who enjoys spending time with her friends
it’s a hard transition for this mama heart but this is who she is and who she will be more and more as time goes on
this is her last week as a nine year old (she turns ten on thursday) and i am trying to figure out how the past decade went as fast as it did
happy monday friends
