April Foolishness

I love a good weekend with great friends, don't you?

There's a crew I hang with known as the Forest Folk. They're an extremely passionate-about-life group that hang out nearly once per month for a weekend sleepover or camping trip. They are creative, outdoorsy, and imaginative types that do potlucks with gusto and accept pets and rubber skeletons as esteemed guests.



This past weekend we had our usual craft table where I painted journal pages. Others repurposed altoid tins into mini-shrines and painted journals to commemorate good times. My friend Nici (who took these pictures) collaged pages to showcase the poetry of a relative who had passed on. Another friend, Sarah, knitted the cutest bunny as her friend's baby shower gift.

There was ham, potato au gratin, purple potato salad, and steamed broccoli for Saturday's dinner. Homemade cupcakes with homemade strawberry frosting was one of the many desserts. Everyone brings a
little something to share with the group.

There was poker, movies, and Just Dance for added entertainment.





Our next big shindig is a camping weekend in May where there will be drumming and dancing. I love our little community!
