abbie

One of the best parts of this vacation is spending time with our kiddos. Abbie, who is 27 and lives in New Orleans, is here, along with her husband, Sam, and of course, our sonny boy, Max rounds out the group.


This is Abbie, who, when small, loved to collect shells from the beach, arrange and carefully sort them.


I found this little study in shells on the dining room table this afternoon. Most certainly it was made by Abs and goes along quite well with the following photo and description of such that I found on Sam’s blog:


“And here we have an Abbie project, more or less complete. Abbie works in mysterious ways. I'm pretty sure she arranged these dropped petals while she was talking on the phone, probably unconsciously. It's nice to live with someone who beautifies things as she goes along.”
