Paint a Pot

A few weeks ago we spent a few hours with Grammy and Poppy at the local Paint a Pot shop.
Hannah painted a lovely unicorn, Kent a dish to keep his keys, and I painted a little jewelry box.
We had lots of fun, and so far everything turned out really nice… although my creation has still [...]
Blogging

Me and my blog…. its become more of a love/hate relationship as of late. Love it because it is my journal, my therapy, my scrapbook, my memory jogger.

Hannah was jumping around the house excited about the Jaffa [...]

What could be more perfect than 70 degree weather, sunshine on our backs, and painting with Daddy?
Hannah loves to draw, color, and paint and is becoming quite an artist. She takes after Kent thankfully, because I was not gifted with much artistic ability!
It’s DONE!

Kent has submitted his thesis!
The final manuscript was emailed to his friend Kyle on Thursday who lovingly printed two copies, had them bound, and turned them over to the University (Thanks again Kyle!)
His Viva (defense) is now the only thing yet for him to check off the list before receiving his doctorate. I am sure [...]
