Charles Schulz

In the late 60's, Charles Schulz came to Santa Rosa and opened his first studio. There is a museum here and parts of his legacy drizzled all over Santa Rosa! We took an afternoon and scurried around the town to find these figures and snapped some shots:)

Each is unique from the other...and this Woodstock was my favorite. Up close, it is peices of glass and under the glass are comic strips....way cool stuff! It was pastels, and shimmery and just amazing what people can make :)

Poor Lucy fell victim to vandalism:( and lost some of that great hair....but, she was beautiful, made of blue gems!

This one looked like it was made from squares of colored electrical tape!

There is still more to get and we will, so stay tuned....

SIX!

July 3, 2004, my baby girl was born--9lbs 5oz!!! Oh, how I remember that day:) And, now, here she is~ a big girl, all grown up!

...chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast!

...the usual batter tasting and cake making :)

We held a princess ball/party....plenty of girls came and had make up put on, finger nail stickers, and tattoos:)

...then they headed to a photo shoot where each girl had their moment in the spotlight!!!

...we had mostly princesses but a lady bug showed up too!

Here are all of the girls

....a new dress and shoes that light up:)

...and the cherry cake with chocolate icing and chocolate covered cherries!!!!!!!

lots of fun

and a new bike---without training wheels. We took her out that evening and she did great for the first time without them---not a single wreck:)

...then we put it up and called it a day!

What a great day! HAPPY BIRTHDAY FAITH!!!!!

Love Mom
