"In our life there is a single color, as on an artist's palette,

which provides the meaning of life and art.

It is the color of love.”

~ Marc Chagall

Mother's Day Weekend

It was a busy - and fun - Mother's Day Weekend. Saturday, we took the ferry from Portsmouth to Norfolk where we enjoyed the hot and sunny, though windy day. Everyone kept asking us if we were going to the Wine Festival. There is something very unappealing to me about drinking wine outside on a hot day, so no, we did not go to the Festival.

At 3:55 pm, a bit tired and very thirsty, we were standing on a narrow street, waiting for one of our favorite restaurants to open. A gentleman from the restaurant's kitchen was taking a break near the alley. While standing there waiting, suddenly a very comical thing happened... A soda can and a take-out plastic container came flying down the street, as if in a race with each other. The three of us started cheering them on and then began cheering for the soda can to "win"! The can would get ahead, and then the plastic container, and this continued down the street, as we three continued to laugh and cheer. Coming to the stop sign, the can suddenly burst ahead - and we all cheered - the can won! (lol) To add more humor to the situation, both the can and the plastic container (even with it still being windy) both stopped. (I still laugh when I think about the three of us - 'grownups' - getting a kick out of such a silly thing!)  

I also got some time to work on my dolls. Here are a few mini's from the weekend:
