Day Trip

To celebrate a birthday we chose to take a day trip to a near by destination. After a short car ride and a much anticipated ferry boat ride we headed out on a new adventure to explore the jetties. We had arrived during low tide which allowed us to peek at the marsh periwinkles and oyster beds. The photo above reminded me of natures amazing ability to make man made things her own.

Puppy Love!

My eight year old daughter captured this image of our sweet pup Cooper. Looking through these photos it has just now dawned on me that our 2 pups, litter mates Lola and Cooper have been a part of our family for a whole year now. Before we adopted them, it had been 14 years since we brought a puppy home. We did not remember the paper training weeks and months that were in-store for us or the destruction that comes with the territory as baby teeth fall out and pups are aching for anything to chew on. These two have been Talia's favorite photography subjects and dress up play mates and many hours have been spent in their loving warm puppy dog company. We love you two!

My Fathers Hands Wooden Toys

The little seed has been planted and as Spring approaches it begins to sprout. First strong roots heading down to the ground for nourishment ~ our mission: To create natural, unfinished, hand crafted wooden toys. Toys that allow our children freedom of imagination filled creative play. Peace of mind for parents knowing the toys are toxin free. Joy watching and hearing our children play. Pride knowing that we will replenish natures gifts by planting a tree for each toy sold.

Next for our seedling comes the growth upwards toward the sky. Reaching up and then out with leaves of green: Our web site has launched for all to see. Now we wait for Spring to arrive bringing warm weather, some rain and lots of sunshine: spreading the word "...my father's hands made these toys."
