Visiting my cousin, I notice lots of things in his place that used to be in my aunt and uncle's house growing up. It's fun to revisit them here, brings back memories. Both rugs in the above photos were woven by my mom, the brown and red one from way back in the 70's, one of her first, I think. The bright red and blue one is later, she must have given it to my cousin and his wife as a wedding present. It's fun to see her work incorporated here too. And I don't know where the bedding came from, but everytime I visit, I want to take it home with me. Same with the Tintin picture.

hi alicia and esti! thanks for dropping by. yes, we love tintin in our house too. have to admit i am tired of reading them out loud to the kids...too hard to make all those funny sound effects of the characters crashing around and bumping their heads :) but great when the kids read them on their own!
