vampire weekend.
i must admit it makes me feel old and a little and silly – but boy does that white sky song have something special to it. also, have a new respect after seeing them on an hbo special performing it live. wow, that high pitch yodel is no joke.

i really just like to think about them in this area. we've read records that said there were many indians around when our house was built - along with many black bear. here's hoping the family that built this house were friends with both –



paul simon.
especially those lyrics: losing love is like a window in your heart.
everybody sees you're blown apart. everybody sees the wind blow.
any many others. special thanks to christin kelley –

happy friday people!

also, i wanted to include some great inspiration from the weekend...
saturday we bummed around shopping for parts for the john deer and stopped in at a little antique shop. first, i found this crazy awesome needle point that exemplifies all my stitching dreams.


i love how it's half realistic and half folk style.


then i found some great books illustrated by walter seaton.
love, love, love, his style!



and lastly i really like the idea of these...

half wood carving, half painting. so nice!

afterwards we went down to the bowers supply shop and had 50 cent hot dogs. what a saturday, right!? ahhhhh berks county, i love you.
happy wednesday everyone!
