Creative Friday

This week we had Creative Friday on Thursday because Jill will be otherwise occupied tomorrow afternoon (helping with Whitney's Valentine party at school). As usual (or possibly more than usual), I reeeaallly needed Creative Friday this week, so I was happy and grateful that Jill suggested rescheduling so as not to have to wait until next Friday... I need my sanity saver.

Eva came right over and squeezed into our self-portrait!

Jill even brought lunch this week, a real treat after the week(s) I've had.

We spent the whole time creating our homekeeping boxes that we learned about in our organizing class last night. We were so excited about it that we took a field trip to Walmart after class to buy supplies!

We thought we would do other projects after completing our boxes, but they took longer than we had planned. No matter. The combination of striped index cards, colorful tabs, and impending organization and freedom was nearly intoxicating.

I think this was a great project to do together, because we could help each other figure it out and share ideas. And by that I mean that Jill helped me figure it out and gave me ideas, as usual. {Photo by Jill}

Jill's box. This is so pleasing, right?

As is this.

Jill took this photo of Eva drawing a dinosaur. I love its red eyes. She also gave us quite a roaring demonstration and asked me to video the display. Maybe next time.

Do her "movie star teeth" remind anyone else of a certain fish?? (Don't worry, Eva, you wear them well.)

Again, Jill takes the best angles. I love this photo of our C.F. table and work in progress. It makes me happy.
