    Posted on Tuesday November 24th, 2009 at 15:47 in kids, costumes, family dynamics

    David donned his Harry Potter costume and set out to cast spells around the yard. Alone. Because he often likes to do imaginary play alone. I understand. I was the same way. I had secret, little scenarios in my head that I didn't want anyone else to ...

    As I begin to sadden at the thought that fall is over, just as most trees shed their majestic cloaks of color, a stunning grand finale takes place. The maples are the last to turn, and when maples turn it is absolutely stunning. They are the most bea...

  • Ride With the Moon In the Dead of Night

    Posted on Friday October 9th, 2009 at 15:32 in halloween, sleepy hollow, artistic friends

    The title to this post is a line taken from the song This is Halloween from the film A Nightmare Before Christmas. I love the imagery of that line. It evokes images of the classic, cackling witch riding on a broom, passing by a full, autumn moon. Ahh...
