Valentines treats I made for the kids to take to school - I made about 85/86. Actually, these are quite easy to make - and very yummy! :)

more pic's of Bella at the dog park and pic's of the boys at the Blue and Gold banquet at Burk's Methodist, Hixson, TN

Another pic of Bella at the dog park and Tyler with Pebbles. The way she sits kills me - feet in the air and spread - too funny. But, she sure does love Tyler!

Just an interesting note: If you click on the pic of the butterfly on the purple flower - it opens up into a really large pic. Center it so you have a very good view of the butterfly - it kind of looks like he/she/it is sucking up the pollen (for lack of a better expression). I think it's really cool.
Below: Turtle from the Chattanooga Aquarium, My cats: Pebbles in the tree and Ascher on the ledge, Justin showing off his pins - he's going to be crossing over at the end of the month to become a Boy Scout! Then, there are 3 aquarium pic's: Joshua and Sky feeding shrimp to the sting ray's, Joshua with the butterflies, and a pretty pic of a butterfly on a leaf.

Three pic's of the boys creating their own masterpieces at the High. One of Johua in a mask of a terracotta soldier - a treat since he couldn't go.







Scenes from the High






Piece by Vik Muniz. It's an elaborate arrangement of junk and trash from Rio De Janiero. The objects were put in place on the floor of an aircraft hanger creating this giant, multi-dimensional sculpture. It was photographed in bird's eye view from a crane.


Justin & Tyler in front of a piece by Anselm Kiefer called Dragon, 2001. The seashore & night sky are connected by lines that form the Draco Constellation (or, Dragon). Most likely referring to the German Myth of Siegfried adn Brumhilde. In this story the evil dragon can only be slain by the pure off heart.


I took the big boys to the High Museum of Art to see China's First Emperor: the Terracotta Army




Ascher has taken to spending time in Bella's cage - in Bella's bed. Wierd. other pic: Bella and her puppy dog.
