colorado winter {part two}

It is like a dream here, right now.

Everywhere the edges are blurred and the landscape is saturated in white.

So not tired of this winter, yet.

These are my daily views.

And I love it.

up the mountain

We just had a whirlwind of a visit with Norbert's brother, and his girlfriend, who came in from Finland.

They arrived on Friday and Norbert is just heading back now, from the airport.

Their visit was short, but super sweet and fun.

It had been a few years since we had last seen them!

We went all over, but I actually remembered to bring my camera when we took them to ski in Vail.

I captured a few photographs....

but really, I just spent most of that time laughing. 

And talking. 

A lot :)

And there were a few football games in there, too!

You know - I've mentioned my love of public art and sculpture.....

And then heading out: a reminder of summertime.

I'm trying really hard not to give you an exact date for our upcoming shop update because I always underestimate how long it takes (which totally leads to stress because I HATE being late).

BUT, I'm nearing the end. I will say that! 

You see, I just get super excited and over eager to get my new work out there :)

I'll of course let you know here and on Facebook first. 

So keep an eye on those two spots for when I finally get these new designs posted.

Golden Days....

Life has definitely been moving at a fast pace.

We have really, really been enjoying vanaema's (Estonian grandma) visit and we are trying to show her as much of our area as possible.

This past weekend we headed to Golden for their Buffalo Bill Days parade and fair.

We were treated to dancing ponies, mariachis, a shoot-out, Native American dancing and the coolest gun-swinging chick I've ever seen! ;) She threw around a couple of 2 1/2 pound guns like they were feathers. There was som whip action too.......

She is still with us for another 8 days and we are also expecting some of my family this weekend for my oldest monkey's 5th birthday. We are going to be busting at the seams in our house.....but I'm anxious for the chaos to get here :)

I've actually been working a lot more than usual this past month and I will be so relieved to finally get a shop update up this week. It has been a loooooong time.

My goal is to start this Wednesday and finish on Thursday.

So, Norbert and I also decided to start a weekly sale where we will have one piece of jewelry at a reduced price in our shops for one week.

This week the 'What Sarah Said' earrings are on sale.

You can find it on our website and Etsy shops.

In the future, I will announce here and on the Facebook page which design it will be.

 

Okay, off to give two dirty monkeys a bath.......

(we just can't seem to get our little boys to bed earlier than 9:30 this summer! We're too busy enjoying the long warm days :)

 

 

Goodnight!
