this past weekend, i took a whole lotta sidewalk chalk + all of my kids outside to our driveway. we spent all afternoon out there, and not only created some chalk masterpieces, but created some fun memories.
to see more pictures from our activity {more sidewalk chalk art!}, and to read my thoughts on “the art of… family” head over to the twig creative blog. and then, buy one of their wooden treasures, because they are the absolute cutest toys ever! true statement.

dear friends, thank you dearly for all your texts, emails, fb/twitter/instagram messages yesterday and this morning in wake of the boston explosions. our family went to the red sox game at fenway in lieu of the marathon yesterday and we were back home in the suburbs before any danger took place. it is a hostile world that our children are inheriting. yet, there is tremendous good in the world too, lets keep that in mind as we all pray for better days.
in passing of yesterdays events, my friend katie shares her thoughts about beantown. her words are very touching, a coincidence that our family is planning a picnic on a boston lawn this afternoon.
xo.
Oh gosh Jane, that is a very kind mention. I’m sure glad all you peeps were safe : )
Love your post over at Twig! You’re a great mum and a beautiful person. And that chalk art is fantastic!
I’m so glad to hear you guys are safe. I am thinking of you and your family and praying for peace/safety soon.
Thought of you guys all day this day. I was so glad to hear that you decided to go to the Sox game instead of the marathon but my heart breaks for all those affected in the bombings. Another senseless act of violence.
