BAM! WOW! ZAP! ZOOOOOM!!! Our New SuperHero!

Out of the shadows -
Maybe a phone booth-
one artist stepped forward;
and when he did, we realized
Clark Kent had nothing on this guy......



One nameless wonder transformed part of his fantastic etsy shop just for lil' ol' us!
By donating the 100% of the proceeds of his White Ninja Guy comic to building the House of Imagination!

Check the White Ninja Guy comic book here.

Awesome, huh?

The Act of Juggling Time.

We don't sleep in this house. We nap.
Finally Anastasia's getting her 8 hour winks.

After 4 1/2 months of happily waking up 8 times,
then 6 times,
then 4 times,
then three times,
now only once a night only must I utter the two sleep depriving words.

"Babe. Bottle."

Breastfeeding or not, our girl can always empty the bottle. :)

One House of Imagination supporter emailed me yesterday:

"Now again, this is a project that is MASSIVE!
I honestly think that you may end up burning yourselves out if you try to do this all at once, and I hope that you guys recognize this, but you will keep going with this dream, but be smart and do it a piece at a time. But for some reason, I do believe you guys will do it."

It's odd.
Because I know we'll do it.
I have this unexplainable confidence and fearlessness.
As if I've already done it before.
Déjà vu?

The mental being is gluttonous!
We want to learn everything---do everything--reach, strive, know, achieve!
But it becomes physically tiresome, all of the learning and reaching and stuff.
*YAAAAWWWWWN*

It's equivalent to riding a unicycle and balancing a stack of your best china while scaling the Grand Canyon.

Ok. I'm over-exaggerating.
*YAAAAAWWWNNNNNNN*

Our romance may be fleeting.
Our house may be disheveled.
And we may not be seeing our honeymoon cruise for--------never.

But our life is poetry in constant motion. It's exciting.
Capivating. And as fulfilling as we want it to be.

And we make time for the REALLY important things---like snuggles,
walks and midnight refrigerator raids.

And that apparently is all the time we need.

G'night

Awesome Contributing Artist: Jupiter Moon

Gabi and I had the pleasure of meeting this colorful artist yesterday afternoon.

After contacting us though an ad we ran off of a local craigslist

Even under unique circumstances Jupiter Moon was quite pleasurable.

This down-to-earth artist has been painting for about 30 years.

“Wow that’s longer than I’ve been around. I just turned 21.” I blurt out, wide-eyed.

I forget, my only goes back so far.

“Yeah, I’m more than twice your age” Jupiter coolly says.

So yeah you know he's good.

And has alot of material.

One of my favorite pieces done by Jupiter Moon. Mixed media done on a sheet of metal

From the windows of Jupiter Moons kitchen to the walls of his washroom is cover in paintings.

I really thought Gabi was over exaggerating when he exclaimed that there was literally no wall space.

Of course, being the natural born skeptic that I am, think
"When does a traditional artist ever have wall space ?"

Until he sent me a video from his iPhone.

Check out this video of our friend Jupiters place:

5 ACEOs down and ------499,995 to go!

Two have been bought so far in our shop.
They took about 2hrs
The first one on top is older.
Going to need the help of a lot more artist. Lol.

We are in business!

Our spiffy new logo!

This business card was made in a rush yesterday,
when we were trying to hand a few out to the artist
at the Ashland Midsummers Dream Fest.

Where we meet a vibrant, and wonderful musician named Cornflower.
Who's music that was so powerful, we drifted 3 blocks from our car and right to his stage.
In my opinion, it was a beautiful mix soulful folkjazzybluesness.
It's something my ears are foreign to.
I love it.




Our business check and acknowledgment letter form the Secretary of state.
I had to send in the articles FOUR TIMES!


And my favorite! TA-DA! The bank card! With the House of Imagination name!
It's all so real now. As of right now we have collected $46.37 and its only been a week!
Now, how great is that?
