Off to Neverland for a Jolly Holiday!

Hello All! Sorry I've been a bit M.I.A. My blogging always falls by the way side when people are in town (and rightly so, I need to entertain and do fun things with my visitors!)

About a week ago, Dan got back from his two week business trip to Idaho. While he was gone I kept myself quite busy with all kinds of crafts and projects. The only problem was, he took the camera charger and cord with him and I was left with a dead camera. So now it's gonna be a long series of catch-up posts of all the things I've made and done.

So, here's the first thing I did! I was feeling artistic so I pulled out my watercolors and pencils and drew this little picture. I have always loved Peter Pan -- the story is so charming. As with most of my pictures, they're way better in real life (I really need to invest in a better camera)


I was so taken with this piece that I decided to make a second one, this time with the characters from Mary Poppins. Jolly Holiday style.


While researching what they wore, I found these little beauties -- Aren't they cute?! I don't exactly remember where I found the picture online, but I know what I want for my Christmas tree!
