Mamma Mia

It is my mom's birthday this month and I wanted to blog about what a sweet aquarian queen she is and what a completely remarkable mother and sweet moon she is to me.  She truly is a bright shiny, white moon goddess protecting me and guiding me.  Always making me feel safe is this big world.

My mom and dad before I was just a twinkle in their eyes as my dad sometimes says, when talking about before me and my brother were born.  It's so weird for my to think they existed without us.  Oh and did I mention how beautiful my mom is?  She has the prettiest, big and round brown eyes.  And luckily, I inherited her pretty hair genes :)

So sweet and young.

Just 22 and pregnant with me!  The back of this picture says the month I was born, so she was just about due.  The more I learn about childbirth and parenting, and more perspective on what a mother is it has truly shown me not only how great my mom is, but how perfect a combo I have had.  My mom and dad are a perfect mix.  But my mom is so soft and warm and comforting.  And more and more I realize she is my best friend.

A Kmart family picture!

I also had to put a picture of my mom's mom, my grandma Peggy.  Such was a feisty, free spirit, that taught me so many life lessons as well as to always have something tasty cookin'!  I miss her meals and her phone calls everyday.  I am so lucky to be apart of a long line of beautiful and strong women.  I also have an amazing aunt Jeri from my grandma. 

Thanks for everything mom!  And HAPPY BIRTHDAY :)  I thank the Universe for you.  I am truly blessed.

Fairy Caves

I spent today doing a little etsy shoot.  I decided to use some unexplored areas of the acreage in Northern California that I live on.  There is this one spot that back during the gold rush, had been used as a camping spot by miners.  They moved all the rocks to one side, either for camping reasons or in the prospect of gold mining.  It's really bizarre.  It looks like a prairie of rocks.

There's lots of little crevices and spaces... places for animals to make tunnels and underground kingdoms.  Fairy caves.  Deer and bigger animals don't even try to scale the rocks.  Why when there is grassy flatland surrounding?

The sun was doing magical things to my photos.

Each rock is so different.  Some mossy.  Like sacred geometry, a map to something super natural.

And then I followed around my chick chicks, calling there names and feeding them leftover brown rice.

I was alone except for my pets and my haunted rocks most of the day.

Earl Grey with Honey & Milk

Oh man, its been too long.  I feel like I'm sitting down for a cup of tea with a friend I desperately need to catch up with!

Well update on kittens: They all found perfect sweet homes except for sweet little Olive!  My roommate and I decided to keep her and she has become besties with Galaxy.

I cannot get over how big she is already!  And such a beauty.  She's feisty and mischeivious and I never know where she is!  She's not hiding, she's sneaky!  

And she plays coy with those fox ears and big eyes!

I can't believe how fast they grow!  Galaxy brings so much fun to my etsy shoots.  Running around curious, climbing trees and meowing at me.  Following me every where.  I have to show her climbing and tree hugging abilities off :)  I'm such a proud mama.

For Christmas we went to Washington state to visit my boyfriend's parents.  They got me some really neat gifts including these gorgeous boots!

And Jordan and I spent about 100 photo booth pictures goofing off with Dodger their sweet pooch.

Basically, the holidays were good.  I missed spending them with my family and wish everyone lived closer.  A big New Year's resolution of mine is to spend more time making contact with my family.  Even if it's just through facebook or texts... I really want them to know I think about them all the time and love them dearly!  Family is so important, and I think I have really just recently understood how important.  I always have made my friends a priority and I feel in the past, haven't put the deserved energy into my fam.  Anyways, I'm already doing better!

Ha, my posts are always about cats... sheesh.

Kittens Coming out My EARS!

Ok, not really. But... remember Barnaby?  He was really a she.  We still call her Barnaby though.  She had 4 baby kittens several weeks ago in a little canyon on the side of our property. What to do with these little babes?  Well, we were able to catch and bottle feed two of these wild babies and are currently looking for homes for them.

Then I caught, the sweetest of all sweets,  a 3rd the other evening.  A little girl, who I named Olive.

 Much more scared because she is older than the others and even though it's only been a few weeks her brother and sister who we caught earlier seem to have forgotten her.  I am still trying to get that last one, the fourth kitten.  I haven't seen it, so I don't know if it's still around our property.  So, I think they are about 7 weeks now.  And they need good, sweet, perfect homes.  They are all amazingly dear.  Fat Man, which is what I call the boy, is HUGE already.  He eats everything and he is so affectionate.  The first little girl, is GORGEOUS and has a black and silver body with a white diamond of fur on her neck.  Olive, is just the coolest.  She's still warming up to her new everything but she is a purrer!
With these little kittens around I have done NOTHING (I have been working my day job too!)!  Except take care of them and cuddle them and today, I finally started to update my etsy shop.  Which I am sorta re-doing.  I was hating my pictures and wanted to make it look better.  Anyways, hope you have little balls of fluff and love in your life!  And if you live close and want  one of the best kittens ever, let me know!

Fair of the State

I went to the California state fair last Sunday, as a staff trip.  I got to see cows!  Which I love, but I love them better roaming in wide pastures eating wild grass as far as the eye can see.

I only had my cellphone, so the pictures are hipstamic!

I got to see fireworks since it was the last night!

On a different note, I lost the little plate for my tripod that connects the camera.  So my etsy pictures aren't of me modeling for my latest shoot.  I'm kinda bummed and e-mailed the company that my tripod is from.  I'm hoping I can get this part asap!

Anyhow, life is hot around here and I'm planning a few days away!
