An urge that I believe may be genetic in our family. We Love to collect rocks! In fact, that is one thing Riley may be getting for Christmas is her very own little rock show case divided into sections with plexiglass over the whole thing, or a large jewelry box with drawers so she can take them out to look at. Until then I love the idea of decorating the box. Right now it is just an old orange Nike box. Thanks for the idea! Ahh yes, collecting. An urge that I believe may be genetic in our family.

I'm constantly finding sticks and rocks in the oddest places and have nowhere to store these "treasures". Sounds like a good project for the weekend. I love that idea.

I let Abby decorate the house and dinner table with her stuff when we have people over. By the way I didn't know if you still wanted to post about the Nature Day I am doing up here, the code fo the button is on my site Ok now I feel like a copy cat I just wrote a post about our “wonder bowl” it is the bowl my mother in law made in her pottery class that we use to collect our stuff.

The kids like to put them out on a black placemat and look at them and play awhile before they put them back. We have rocks,etc in bowls and clear vases all around the house.

"Nature" seems to appear everywhere in our home. I'm gonna round it up and have the kids put 'em in a pretty nature box.
