Welcome to the super-cool very first Nice to Meet You link up, in which all participants are answering the question, What do you like to do at home? In 6 pictures on their blog, or if they are blogless, they can answer in another format, i.e. Pinterest, Facebook, the comments here, etc.
I’m so excited to be a part of this with a new group of incredibly talented, creative women I met while taking an online blogging class through the ALT channel. If you didn’t see my announcement post for this link up, check it out for the full details.
Here we go!
Knit. Mostly I make hats, but this little heart was fun to make. I basically have no patience, so I can only knit quick projects.
Throwing the ball for Farmer. She’s slowing down a bit, but it’s still her favorite thing in the world.
Capturing kid moments unbeknownst to the kids. They’re so used to me pointing a camera at them that they ignore me and I get some good shots. Knuckleheads.
Doing art projects with the kids. They get messy, I get to take pics. Sometimes I even jump in and mess stuff up even more.
Baking cookies. Relaxing and delicious. Always Tollhouse. Sometimes I try to expand my repertoire, but this recipe is as close to perfection as you can get in a cookie.
Taking pics of the kids’ toys when I find them in weird little private parties. Kids do hilarious things with their toys- these guys were simply begging to be photographed.
Here’s a short recap if you are coming here today to link up:
- 6 pictures of what you like to do at home

Hey, fellow creative kid-lovers. Why don't you join me on Facebook?
Some links on this site are affiliate links. I will always disclose if I am compensated for a post, but I only write about stuff I love.
I love your idea for the kids toy parties, would make a great idea for a link up sometime. I was just taking pictures of the sharks on my bathroom floor last week, I mean who has sharks in their shower!

Hi Jeanette, Love your ARTCHOO blog—and I love ALT classes too! I noticed we both like baking sweet things and crafts. I thought I would join the linky party too. Thanks for hosting the event. You can find the blog I edit over at MomathonBlog.com. xo Chris

Oh my gosh, I love #6. I’ve taken pictures of my own kids toys when I find them in interesting circumstances – I’m glad I’m not the only one who gets a kick out of it

That would be a fun link up! I’d be all over that idea.

Our floor is never without forts and blankets. I can’t believe I haven’t broken my limbs yet.

I’m slightly obsessed with it- it’s fun to capture the secret lives of the toys….

This is hilarious, kids have such weird imaginations. Nice to meet you
BreAnna Paulson recently posted…Nice to Meet You Link Up: What do you like to do at home?
i love the idea of capturing kids toys in their funny little environments. i don’t have kids but do have a collection of tokidoki characters (okay, they’re really toys, you got me) but i love to set them up sometimes and snap away. it’s a fun exercise in seeing things differently

Once you find that perfect recipe it’s addicting. Your home sounds like a fun place to be. It’s nice to meet you.
It looks like there is never a dull moment at your house. So precious.
Dani recently posted…It’s Nice to Meet You!
It is fun to do that- you start to look at your house and all its contents completely differently. What could I photograph next….?

Hi Jen! Thanks for stopping by. That’s my problem, though- I probably should branch out a little and try new recipes.
Jeanette Nyberg recently posted…Lands’ End Kids’ Art Contest for Christmas Catalog
Thanks! Nice to meet you as well. Definitely never a dull moment, although I would kill for some dull moments sometimes.

This is very fun to blog hop with a whole new slew of bloggers. Hope you link up some day!

I love making cookies! I would love to learn how to knit. That’s such a cute heart. I’m sure you give a lot of homemade gifts!
Nice to meet you!
