I am a spoiled girl....the heavens can attest....I wanted to go to Art Hop for my birthday and Mr. R got me a ticket....then upgraded me to first class!.....I felt like a queen, actually more like a princess, I think queen's are used to this royal treatment...a princess isn't quite EXPECTING all this loveliness!
I spent 2 days with the be dream play family...an eb type portrait with Boone's bunny on my head....come along, share my fun!!
I was met at the airport by sweet Saul in his sporty Jag and a lovely bouquet of flowers....much nicer than carrying an 'I'm looking for you' sign I think.
I was showered with gifts....
More than I can count....
.....eb's beautiful, brightly colored jewelry hanging off my wrist.
Yummy carrot cake.....
flowers and wine....
Me...taking a picture of eb...taking a picture of me on Mt. Philo.
This be dreamy play world is filled with nanna's and
legions of drummers.....
and bright colored ART everywhere....notice the leaves on the wall....
We tested the waters with Luna....such a sweet girl!
I saw loop de loops.....
spirit-ful houses and even some rodrigvitz style spirit houses!
Thank you be dream play family! for sharing your fun filled Art Hop world with me!!!
and thank you sweet Mr. R!! next time....you come along too!!



























That is so great! Your photographs are wonderful. So you know eb. huh.

Hello Stephanie! this is my first visit to your blog--I wanted to see it after meeting you on Friday. It was great to meet you and great to relive your weekend with E from your viewpoint after seeing it from hers! :)
I am glad you came to visit and had a good time. The weather on Sunday was yucky--so you got the best of the weekend although it was very hot and humid.
Interesting that your stream of comments has a similar "feel" to Elizabeths...you two are definitely compatibles and your site is really really nice!
enjoyed meeting you...and your site!

I'd say that was a birthday to savor for years to come....the joy of hopping to pink sky land to spend time with its occupants - what a gift! And for them to have such a Princess/Queen in their midst something for them to savor as well. All the way around a glorious fest of friendship, art and being....dreaming...and playing!! thank you so for sharing some moments from your wonderful "hop"!
XOXO
