Nuh visits

We have had my aunt here visting this week & it's been great. Her time always goes too fast & the kids try to eat up every second they can with her. It reminds me of those important relationships we make as children with our family. I'm so glad she's a part of their lives...we'll be missing her next week.

Hooting PJ"s

Tonight was my PJ class. Alot easier than I expected! My first choice of flannel was a 1/2 yd short, so I had to get more flannel this week. Check em out@@!. Now let's see if I can replicate for xmas presents:)

Kid's Art

I love looking at kid's artwork. It's always so true to the moment..."revealing," I guess would be a good adjective. This week Jack brought home a self portrait he worked on in art class at school. Look closely & you'll see a cat, soccer ball & crayon in hand...pretty revealing of his personality:) ignore the big flash...need to retake w.o flash during daylight.

Maddie's always drawing or coloring. She's very proud of her creations & this one I'm guessing is her imaginary birthday party. The one she's planning...5 months in advance.

Super Sunday

The WexArts Center on OSU's campus had a great event yesterday..free for all to try oil painting & tour Luc Tuyman's exhibit. Tuyman's art is on display through Jan. 2010. Amazing... It was a fun afternoon. While we were there painting, a reporter with the Columbus Dispatch came over & started chatting...& interestingly enough we were featured in today's paper.
