Zona Rosa Art Festival

I meant to post this last weekend, but better late than never.  We had nice weather for this art fair last weekend.  Below people were relaxing by this fountain waiting for a young girls dance event.

Many people were drawn to the bright colors of this booth.

Jim Aden from Salem, Oregon  had beautiful unique glass work at his booth.  I wanted one of these vases he displayed.  The bright colors really drew people in.

Having been a silversmith in a younger life, I still play with jewelry and am always drawn in by someone with unique work.  Char Hunt crochet's her jewelry, her use of beads blend beautifully to create the below one of a kind pieces.  She has an absolutely beautiful turquoise piece on her web page.

Some of you may know I have knitted Christmas trees with silver wire and beads and I can attest to the beauty of Char's pieces.  Double click photo to see the detail.  

Reduce Reuse Recycle  I loved these Record Purses. They also had great license plate bracelets (including ones of my home state New Mexico)   The 3 Sisters Design Co. motto is 

Recycle-Reuse-Reclaim-Reinvent

 The below Graffiti Art was also a favorite.  I loved the tribute to John Lennon.  I looked but did not find a business card in booth???

The Plaza Art Fair is this weekend.  I sure wish I were an Artist.  But thankfully there are lots of talented folks creating art for all of us to enjoy.

Dippin Dogs

Sadie and her best friend Mattie (below) loved this end of summer tradition

Above Mattie waits for her toy to be thrown into the water.  Mattie loves to swim in the deep water, she could spends all day at that pool.  Sadie has a funny dog paddle and prefers to have her back feet on the floor of the pool and is not fond of the deep end of the pool.  Below Sadie keeps lookout as Mattie retrieves her toy.  It was beautiful weather and great fun with the girls.

Elliot's First Birthday

E's First Birthday Party was held in a park, the splash pool was a hit with E and all his friends.  The weather was beautiful and it was shared with wonderful people.  E was styling in his shirt and tie and had his hair done for the special occasion.

E knew this looked good and he wanted to eat it

E figured out how to taste it.

More fun at the Party

Opening presents

Happy Birthday E  Love you!!!!
