A quick bookish note first. Today I’m guest posting on the Middle Grade Minded blog about the cover for PIRATE ISLAND. It’s a fun inside look at the process that went into creating it.
Okay, now for the spring part. I’m inclined to say it’s been a weird spring, given that we had snow early on in the season and 90 degree weather last week. But when I think about it, that’s pretty typical for New England.
Some highlights of spring have included The Boy having a his artwork in the citywide show (a fire truck drawing of course!), riding on Thomas the Tank Engine, lots of park time, the New England SCBWI conference (I’ll be blogging some highlights soon), and moving into a room together and getting bunk beds (in preparation for The Gentleman’s arrival).
What have you all been up to this spring?
Great pics! I love th bunk bed.
Thanks! The boys are loving the bunk beds, too…maybe a little too much with all the chit chat coming from there every night. 🙂
What fun pictures. I know what you’re saying about the weird weather. Ours has been up and down too. Have a great week.
It’s not unusual to have a 30 degree swing from one day to the next this time of year. Makes it hard to figure out how to get everyone dressed in the morning. Have a great week, too!
Looks like it’s been a fun spring! xo
Fun with all the other stuff in between. Trying to sneak in as many fun moments with the two boys before #3 comes along! xo
The firetruck drawing should be a PB cover! Congratulations to the budding artist and his brother.
The Boy loves writing and illustrating his own stories (wonder where he gets that from?). He’s working on mastering the fire truck…we have so many of them! And now The Prince has started drawing them too.
