Marshmallow Icebergs in

Welcome to
SATURDAY'S CRITTERS



"What? We have to stay home tonight?"

Sorry pups, next time, maybe.


Friday night's weather could be described as,
Marshmallow icebergs in steaming cocoa!
Must stay warm.
Hoodies and blankets!


The cold didn't stop
our birthday boy, Danny 
he ran his sweet heart
and feet 
(for heat to compete)
like always!


That made dinner late.....



But so worth it.




Happy 9th birthday Danny!


Little brother had to try the happy face too!


Meanwhile, back at their home front



Life was oh so good with these two buds.



"We know what we are but, 
 not what we may be."
William Shakespeare


Every now and then it feels good to be king!

Even if you're just a stuffed critter!

Thinking of nothing in particular, except those critters around me



Building fire pits and patios.


Hanging out at the bus stop.


"Write this down:
 My life is full of unlimited possibilities.
Pablo
and everyone with a free will!


Fearlessly,
they share chairs at Wild Rumpus Book Store with us.





We paint our critters.



Have no fear your dear bear is here.

You're a big lovable Teddy Bear.
Michael Grant

Fearless!
No, no, no, so not getting the point of fear.
Because fear wasn't about what made sense.
Fear was about possibilities.
Not things that happened.
Things that might.
Michael Grant




We wear them.

"Never underestimate the determination of a kid
 who is time rich and cash poor."
Cory Doctorow



We build critter puzzles.


"We're all pieces of the big puzzle.
Just be the piece you are 
so you're doing your part.
to complete the picture."


Spend your days wishing and pursuing 
and keep your passion alive.
Take good care of YOU!

A book store with a live chicken inside? All the other animals and kids are cute... I don't think I'd handle well a chicken living inside.
