summer weather, Easter, clean gardens

It's going to be another wonderful day today. Deezel and I will do our walk, before it gets too warm. I'll do some more garden cleaning - getting rid of last year's stalks. Then after I vacuum, I have some art time.
Yesterday we had 15 people for Easter lunch. Nieces, Kelly & Jennifer, nephews Tristan & Tyler and Tyler's wife, Heather, were here.Friends Ila and Becky were here also. Niece Haley and nephew Adam were too far away. She's in Spain "studying " for the semester; he's stationed in San Diego. My three brothers and wives were here. Sisters Anne & Elizabeth were absent. Our new kitty, Zeek hid from all the activity. Buck Wheat tried all day to get out.
It was a perfect day for sitting outside. The backyard is firm. Heather and Tristan wore Deezel out playing with him.

more guests,the star being the puppy of course.

This abstract collage is with pages from a craft advertisement, puppy feet tissue and tracing paper.

This entry marks another of the first days with the puppy. Several friends visited to see him so the tissue paper with paw prints dominates the entry. My initials made with a stamp, are highly visible.

Third grade was on a field trip. I made note of hearing the peepers for the first time on Thursday night. Since it says "11:30 last night", I must have been out with the puppy.
This entry consists of a stampbooking paper (with the dots) and two pieces of Japanese paper. The date is highly visible and an important part of the page.
Peepers late at night
singing full and sweetly to
announce the season

The colors and themes of the papers feel like spring.
