Walking in the Rain


Autumn Stillleben



princesses and other role models

 
I got this tiara from a friend that is moving to Mexico. It was meant for the playgroup I help with once a week. I decided to steal it for my self. I haven´ t had a tiara in years. I am secretly wearing it around the house. It is silly. The tiara reminds me of me as a young somebody beautiful and carefree. I went to see Georgia O´Keeffe exhibition. The card in the background is of her. She is my idol, what I want to be and how I want to look when I grow up.

Kew Garden in the Fall

 Kew Garden is beautiful in the Fall. 
I went there with my husband, mother-in-law and my son. 
The shades of red and yellow colour are amazing. 
We were lucky with weather. It was sunny and dry.
We had bought Kew Kids leaflet the previous time we visited Kew Garden. 
We just took it with us and it was still good and interesting.
 My son enjoyed reading the Tree Top Walks information bords. 
There are so many different trees in this living tree library.
We took the little train. 
Kew Garden is too big for walking. 
A wonderful thing in growded London is,
 that everywhere in Kew Garden there was space and not too many people. 
The inside spaces were remarkable.
By that time we also started to be little cold. It was lovely to come in a warm greenhouse.

Birthday Mania is why I never get anything done in October.

Last month was my son´s birthday. Every year I tell myself that this year I will not make it big. Then I spend a month planning and another one getting over the party. This year it was two parties. First one was a Minecraft party. I made a map and we made together some swords. The cake was my sons head in Minecraft design.
The second partys theme was Olympics. We had funny sports and a lego olympic cake. It was great fun planning the parties.  My son was helping all the way and making decisions. He decided that the party bags should have apples and pears in them. He chose from his lego figures a toy for each child. As you can see in the pictures, it was a real homemade look I was going for.
