Zen and the art of flower arrangement.

My daughter goes to a after school program called "Art 4 Life" And with all my complaints of the laxness the staff have with me.. (aka they don't seem to have much fear of me. Because most of them are about my age, and "I'm cool and all")
in any case today's project was Ikebana.
Here's her piece, she's so very proud.

Captain Bogg & Salty show last summer

I took Morgynnchan to see "The ghosts of treasure island" It was fantastic !
The setting on the stage was amazing and she was really impressed by how they did set changes, by rolling various pieces on and off the stage.
The band played as the ghosts themselves, it was a take on treasure island itself , but was rather endearing.


Tonight we shall be relaxing and finishing up homework. *sigh*

And now for something completely different.

Hmm.. beginnings are always trying but here's some background on me and my little family.

There's me. Gretchen

Single mom, geek chic (so I'd like to think) ,photography lover and exhibitor, singer, tattooed, crafty lady,vegetarian, Buddhist and etc....

My daughter. Morgynn otherwise known as "morgynnchan" , "morgynnhead", "Morgynnputthatdown", "morgynnquitit"(which I'm sure she thought was her real name from ages 3-5) and morgynngirl.

She's my rock star, costume maker, Pokemon lover, littlest pet shop collector, Japanese immersion student (go-er?),artist extraordinaire and my one and only baby.

Our two kitties

Hana the sycophantic devon rex (or the Japanese word for flower "haan nuh")

Bengal the ("only cute when he's fat!"- as per Morgynn) Orange tabby.

So there we are !
