In Memory....

Happy Memorial Day to all the brave men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.

Is there anything better....

...then lazily sitting by the pool on a hot Memorial Day weekend with good friends, trashy magazines and one "honkin' huge" ice coffee....I think not!!

A Snake in the Grass....

Today we had a few unexpected guests join us for opening day at our pool...a trio of harmless little snakes that just wanted to sit in the sun along with us...the lifeguard was a little freaked out by them, but not moi...I just wished they would stay still so I could snap them longer!

Not exactly Polar Bear Weather..

The temperature shot up to almost 90 degrees today...and while I do appreciate a summer day....I would have liked to at least had a few spring days before we shot into a heat wave....not polar bear weather, indeed! (This cranky polar bear was done by a 4th grader at CIS Art show I went to).

Jim Dine Project

Working on next project ...thinking of doing some Jim Dine Hearts...can you feel the love?

Now That's an Art Show!!

Lauren and I joined Leah tonight at the Opening for her school (Canton Intermediate) art show...we were blown away by the talent we saw, and the art teacher did an amazing job in setting up the gallery...now that's how it's done!!

Good Enough to Eat!

Today's "Monday with Monet" Class worked on delicious watercolors inspired by the Pop Artist, Wayne Thiebaud's colorful dessert paintings...the results were good enough to eat!!
