Paper Craft…. Quilling
Check this out
This paper craft is called Quilling. You need quilling paper- 1/8″, a quilling needle tool & slotted tool, circle template board, straight pins, tweezers, scissors and craft glue. The concept is that you use a small tool and curl and glue paper to create cool shapes. Very time consuming but very cool…. Sort of a lost art!
As always thanks for reading!

Elysium Touch Massage
My hips have been killing me lately so I finally gave into, my friend Mariah Neesons, suggestion of a massage. GLAD I DID!! I have had many massage therapist friends over the years and still never listen to the advice and get massaged regularly. First I must say if you hope to just leave feeling “relaxed” tell Mariah before you start. When she askes “is anything troubling you?” She means, “I am really going to work that free for you, breath deap!”
My hips feel great, and I am reminded to take care of myself. My day was changed…. I even forgot about an appointment. OH NO… 
Thankfully they did not appear to mind, and they shopped while I scurried downtown. Heh heh….
Massage = Good
Busy Crazy Life = Bad
Of course I am kidding, I really do wish how ever that I would be smart and visit Mariah much more often. Take care of yourself, life is short!
Oh yeah and make sure to Watch “Slumdog Millionaire” by Danny Boyle

The Art House
A few weeks back we delivered a paper tree to a client in Pullman Washington. They had recently bought a chunk of land and on it held a WSU senior project. An art house. This house was three stories high and made out of all recycled stuff. They had invited us to bring the boys and OH did they LOVE it. Imagine the tree houses they have built in their heads!

Death three days ago
I did not open the office today until very late. Saturdays I try to only be “available,” I checked facebook, which I love and check daily to see how everyone is. My friend lost her husband 3 days ago. He was a fit man, early 30s, with a healthy lifestyle. He lived a fervent life filled with passion and joy. His existence changed lives of many people. He died instantly and the reason is unknown.
This subject is fresh on my mind because I am reading Team of Rivals, by Doris Kearns Goodwin, which is an account of Abraham Lincoln and Civil War. Life in the 1850s was different than we can imagine, yet oh so similar. Still worldwide people live in cold winters with no electricity and children die. People are left with out food and multitudes die. In 1850 it was commonly believed that fruits and vegetables where not needed, death resulted. Strange medical practices such as thinking depression came from digestive problems where treatment was severe. What will they say of our diseases that kill the masses in 150 years?
Death is something I have already had to face….I no longer fear it, I face the fear associated with, and many times weep. I weep more for the unwarranted death, the multitudes of unwarranted dead. Many who buy into the “Great Global Warming Swindle” are hard from lies telling them there are too many people anyways. This lie is of course coming from the same people who, no doubt, in 1850 would have had slaves…… in many ways they still do.
Lesson: Live life to its fullest! Really it is that simple…. Love

Movie for my Kids
Well I have to admit, I feel there is a direct relation to how my kids are acting and what movies they watch. Certain movie we all may love, Mom doesn’t like the games/behavor that follow. The Sponge Bob Movie creates silly nonsence that leads to tears. The Mupet Treasure Island keeps the piriate theme alive and well in our house. A bit of pirate is fun but the message we are teaching is to “love each other”
So when I come across “helper fixer guy” movies I love them.
1. Meet the Robinsons- My midwife kept telling us to watch this and FINALLY we did. Here is a movie we will buy. Brilliant story of “Keep Moving Forward” The movie is set around an orphan boy inventor. The first time we watched it Nate and I laughed so hard and loud when the “bowler hat guys” controls the frog and dinarsaur that James got mad at us because he could not hear!!!
2. Robots- I loved this. It was brilliant. The underlining theme of the Fathers love towards his son, and “See a Need, Fill a Need” is exactly what we are teaching our kids. The movie was clever and filled with wit, music, and imagination. One thing I was glad to see was how they showed the family side of the “bad guys”
