Fun art day

Thanks everyone for coming and letting tell you what to do....hahaha
I was so impressed with all the great work. It makes me really excited about the class...We will see what Teesha thinks. So I won't post your work right now and please send me some pictures if you get to a new point....



Here is some work in progress....

More Madison .....

Earl got her a car. It is battery operated but she did not like the noise. She just likes to get in it and pretend she is going to the beach or to see Mom etc. Then she says " I'm back" and gets out ...seconds later she is back in. The first day she did this all day! She has her hat on because the girl in the picture on the box wore a hat....

I may be a little partial here....but I would be surprised if she does not follow her mom into art.

Happy Mother's day

Jill and I did some journaling at the Corner Coffee House....then had cupcakes. Fun day for both of us. We were missing LE though....

ME

...as in Mary Engelbreit Home Companion Workshop in St Louis, MO....What an amazing event that was. I signed up because I was super excited to get a chance to meet someone I admired so much, Mary Engelbreit, but it ended up that I just loved everything! The Chase Park Plaza was amazing. So beautiful, comfortable and friendly. I felt like Elouise at the Plaza in NY. We got to tour Mary's studio and look at all the things I had seen in the magazines up close. There was a wonderful luncheon with chuck full goodie bags. The classes I took were perfect....Kaari Meng from French General, my buddy Charlotte Lyons, Wendy Addison and Kathy Curotto. The seminars were really great too..Sheila Meehan and Margo Tantau. I learned so much and it all really made me ask myself some questions and it turned on a few lights that were getting dim... Sukey was a delight to travel with and we even had a tornado warning...sirens and all!
