22 days of gratitude and giveaways- day four and five

Bonjour mes amis!

Just a small post today as it is the weekend

and I am in France with mi amor after all

for the first time....

plus I actually wrote this whole blog last night and

POOF!! It vanished...just like that!

Oh well, what can we do??

I want you to know that I am writing this post with a French accent in my head

so you must read it that way too d'accord? :)

Grateful for

these little heart rocks collected in Wales. The beaches there have the most I've ever seen!

 

THIS view from the window of our budget hotel the first night here~ the beautiful Chateau de Carcassonne!! 

THIS view from our VERY BUDGET "chalet" our last night in Wales...we actually worried it might fall down the hill from the obvious termite damage AND its the first place we've ever stayed where the shower head was missing! But the views...oh my!!

THIS perfect vista through an ancient window at the ruins of Tintagel Castle in Devon to the wild waters outside Merlin's Cave. Some serious magic there!

INSPIRATION from our travels to work in new ways, smaller by necessity, with different tools. This piece is the from an upcoming tutorial in my regular Cloth Paper Scissors column :)

AND MOSTLY GRATEFUL FOR the technology ( that works most of the time!) to be in contact with these two gorgeous girls whenever we like!

SOOOOOOOOO excited for all of us (including Santanas lovely amor Jacob) to be together for my birthday in San Sebastian Spain for a couple of weeks :)))))))
