Here's a slide show of Ethan and some pics from his bday party. We had it at McDonald's because it was free and we could use the play area. I made a cookie cake and decorated it myself...a first for me since I don't bake. I think it ended up pretty good considering the hell I went through to get it done in the first place.
The Prompt:
Still Hurting
The Song:
Not Ready to Make Nice by the Dixie Chicks
The Product/Technique:
Pins/Sewing Needles
Here's my take on it. I'm so glad for this prompt. It helped me work outside my comfort zone and made me scrap a subject that I haven't wanted to do before.
Not me...but my daughter!!!!
There was a contest for all the 4th graders in the school district. The Mary C. O'Keefe Cultural Center picked 12 students to have their drawing on the Mary C. Christmas cards and Lauren won first place!!! The cards were also available for sale. We are sooooooooooooooooo PROUD of her. She's got an amazing talent that will only get better.
The card...signed by the artist:
Proud mama and the artist with the framed original:
...to ME!!!!
This is what my wonderful hubby got me for my birthday!!!!! And he totally surprised me with it too! This is the man who goes to Walmart the day (or night) before, and manages to pick up something. I am so happy!! I can't wait to play with it!
