Born In A Barn!

I often ask the inhabitants of my humble home, "Were you born in a barn?"...then I answer the question myself and tell them that I was present at their births and I distinctly recall that it WAS NOT A BARN!! My mother-in-law says she did not have her son in a barn either so how come my house often resembles one? This appears to be one of life's great mysteries which, brings me to my story. The other day I bought Ethan some window crayons just for fun...


...this was the result...


... seriously...


...I get no respect...


 ...but he did send some Tumbled Trinkets love...

P.S. You may have noticed that my car windows are really dirty...and I have noticed that I really don't care!

The Spatacular Weekend

My girlfriend and I decided we needed a trip to Meadow Creek Spa in Stanley, ID. Yes,  I know, needed is a rather subjective term but we really didn't care...we ran screaming into the night (actually it was 10:00 am but who's checking)...


...We optimistically wore sandals and capri's but it was so chilly that we had to put on winter coats......so we poked around town with our freezing feet...


...this was us before...


...this is me after... in dorky blissfulness...


...this is the view from the spa...


...it was a grand weekend...


...and River 1 bought Tumbled Trinkets to put in their store...I love business trips!

The Farmer's Market

Salmon, ID has a charming little Farmer's Market and like a lunatic I decided to do it the weekend after the Farm Chicks Show...I hear rest is WAY over rated but just to test that theory I'm headed to the Spa with my girlfriend next weekend!!


...most guys don't stay very long in our booth unless they have some serious fence mending to do and I don't mean actually mending a real fence...


...in the corner of this picture Cheyenne has her "Help Me Go To College Jar," with her delicious chocolate covered rhubarb...

...it has to be white chocolate and you have to eat the whole piece at once. It sounds weird but we are weird and I dare you to try it ...just tell everyone Tumbled Trinkets dared you to take a walk on the culinary wild side ...


...speaking of culinary delights, Miss Emily was delivering delicious food to Market Goer's throughout the day...


... glass wind-chimes and upcycled window wild flowers from our booth...


...paper gift bags made from an old atlas...


...rag ribbon made from sheets...


...a friendly reminder to repurpose...

 ...and RELAX...we're off to the Spa!!
