Blueberry Tea Day Musings

Good morning!

It's Tea on Tuesday again!

I want to invite all of you

to visit Kimmie at

Art in Red Wagons.

Just go to her sidebar for a list of

tea bloggers.

Hope you join us!

It's been a busy holiday season so far.

But I did take time out to go fishing

with my family. 

My 2 year old grandson caught his first fish!

My grandson called the fishing pier a

"suspension bridge".

Now remember he is only 2 yrs. old.

He learned those words from

Thomas the tank engine.

Thomas has been around for over 65 years,

and was started by a Reverend who made up stories

for his little boy.

I learned a lot about Thomas this Thanksgiving holiday.

This is my DH and I on the pier.

When the sun came out bright that morning

the sun stars were dancing on the water

all across the bay.

I wish my camera could have caught how

beautiful that was!

Today I get back into my routine of sorts.

I'm having my blueberry STASH tea,

and just enjoying the morning.

Having tea is always a good way to relax

and it helps me slow down.

My watercolor class starts up again tomorrow.

This watercolor is by

C. Beard a local artist from Big Bend.

The piece it titled

"The Window".

This is looking out of the basin

where the park headquarters is located.

You are up in the Chisos Mtns.

looking down into the

Terlingua area.

I have also been working on the 2nd doll

in the 2010 Coolab art doll project.

This is Lady Sebastian.

She began in California with her creator Talitha.

Lady S. then traveled to Amy in central Tx.

where she got some great additions.

Now she is with me

in South Texas.

I have added a few things to her,

and now will work on her journal.

Next she will go to Gail in North Carolina.

To see and read about the work on all the dolls in this project,

and to follow their progression over the next year,

please visit

Art Doll Coolab 2010.

I will be posting all about Lady S. here

and on the project blog soon.

Christmas is just around the corner.

I'm busy this week

finishing up on Christmas presents

for an early family get together on the 5th.

Everyone is making home made gifts

this year, and we're all having so much fun!

Not much money spent,

and thought, creativity and love

put into each present.

The whole month of December is filled

with fun, food, friends and family.

We never forget the reason for celebrating.

Always a lot going on during the holidays.

But I always take time out,

no matter how busy or behind I am,

to just , enjoy things and...

Savor the Day!
