Happy Mother's Day

My big boy Blair

Alan & I
We went to La Hacienda Ranch restaurant for lunch today. My favorite food, Mexican! This bear was in the entryway so I had to get a picture with him. He was really big! His sign said "welcome to the ranch". Had a great Mother's Day! Got flowers and a new purse!

May Mouse Card

This is the final card I will be doing for House Mouse. Hobby Lobby has cancelled the Stamp of the Month program for House Mouse. Sorry to see this program go but all things change at some point. I have enjoyed my experience with Crafts Etc (Hobby Lobby). They are a great bunch of people to work for. Very professional and generous. I have enjoyed these past several years immensely.

Arty Wooden Birds







I actually had some time this past weekend to make a few birthday gifts for some friends. Two people in one of my art groups had shown the birds they had made and I just loved them! So off to Michael's I went to buy raw wooden birds. I already had enough jewels to add to the birds, it was just hard to decide what to use. But in the end I didn't think they needed a lot of embellishment. They were fun to create!

Wedding Of Heather & Josh

In February one of my good friend's daughter was married. I helped out with the wedding as much as I could. Making some of the corsages, helping with setting up the alter, as well as getting everyone down the isle on the big evening and making sure everything went off without a hitch at the reception. There were a few hiccups but the bride and groom never knew a thing and all was well in the end. Below are a few pictures a wonderful friend of the bride's family took. Enjoy!

New Job and No Art

I have been real busy trying to keep up since I started a new job several weeks ago. I apologize for not posting more often. I have not had time or felt like doing any art lately. I have not worked 40 hours a week in so long I forgot how much time it takes out of the day to get anything done. By the time I get home, walk the dog, and cook dinner it is time for bed.  I do have some pictures to post of a wedding I helped put together back in February. I hope to get them up later this week or weekend. Hope everyone has a great day and thanks for stopping by.
