day 347 : holiday sweetness

Day 347: One of my favorite things about holidays (since being together with Ben that is) is that no matter what holiday it is we can be assured that a delicious box of sweetness will arrive at our doorstep. Lately it’s been my absolute favorite chocolates, shipped here from his hometown of Kansas City… these delicious Christopher Elbow candies are almost too pretty to eat, but then again it’d be a shame to waste them so we always do. This time I preserved with a picture before we dove in. Yuuuummmm valentines chocolate!

day 346 : he luuuuuuvs you

day 346: Sometimes it can seem like Herbie is being a pain… like when you’re trying to take a nap on the couch and he attacks you with licks. But really you can’t stay mad at a sweet face like his… especially because he only does it because he love you. Oh Herbie. Just hide your face if you want to nap, otherwise this will be your fate!

day 344 : the herbie destruction begins

Day 344: Herbie is still a good dog for the most part… but he’s doesn’t seem to know the difference between household objects (pillows, shoes, wiimotes) and his toys. The latest victim to Herbie chewing was the zipper on this couch cushion cover. It’s completely gone, and I can only assume that he not only pulled it off in his chewing, but ate it as well. Let’s just hope it agrees with him…

day 341 : my masterpiece!


Day 341: Ok I know this has been a lot of more than one photo in a row days (I’m indecisive what can I say?) but today I have an excuse because I finally finished my newest model! This thing’s a beast, 3feet by 3feet, but it’s quite lovely (if I do say so myself). Here’s the overall shot (below) and a little detail (above) And yes, I did score brick pattern into the basswood. I’m crazy like that 🙂
