When the House is Quiet

In a house with two loud and energetic little boys and one extremely noisy, hyper lab puppy, there is usually a lot of noise. When the house becomes quiet it either means the boys are at school and the dog is outside, OR . . . someone is up to no good. ;-)
Yesterday, I was very busy trying to catch up on some portrait commission paintings and realized how quiet it had gotten in the family room. I went to check on Zelda and she had managed to shred one of her favorite toys into a million pieces. How guilty does she look?!
I have had to take a break from painting my little pendants for a while so I can get caught up on other things, but did want to share this photo since I've been playing around with my new camera.
