A 6th thing......

6. I still check noggin to see the show lineup ..... how I miss watching Max & Ruby, Little Bill, and Franklin!

5 things......

1. I eat tomato soup almost everyday with crunched up tortilla chips.
2. It is not a good day unless I have my good coffee creamer ( French vanilla )
3. I love getting up before everyone else in the house
4. I still am afraid of my own shadow
5. Every Christmas morning I still look for my gifts from Santa

I am trying....

These are new in the shop. I am really trying to do some small , inexpensive originals. I should have some more small things by the end of the weekend. Oh no! I just made a promise so I guess I better keep it. I think I am going to make something for a give away...... hmmmm. I will keep you posted. I will have it for view on Sunday.

Talk to you soon,

New items

Well , I have finished two new pieces and they are in my etsy shop. I always get a big burst of energy when I have finished a piece.... ready to move on to something new. I am going to do some ornaments to put in "The Muse" here in Frederick. I am not sure if I will do a Christmas theme or just carry over my work as is.

Today , really this week is packed. I have a magic show to attend tonight after much homework with the boys ( alot for 2nd grade and I can not grasp this new math!! ). Do not forget that Charlie Brown is on tonight. I just love Charlie Brown . I always say to my guys " Your a good man Charlie Brown", and they look at me like I am crazy! My youngest always says.... Mommy my name is Reese like I have forgotten. We are doing our Halloween dinner complete with spiders , brains and mummies for dessert. The boys really love this and we have our neighbor , grandparents and friends over. I think this year being on a Friday it will be alot of fun.

The above was sold at my little art show my sister in law hosted. I just love it and really struggled to let it go. I think I will have to do another similar just for me. It has been a busy week. I am working on a few things...... I am doing some small originals that are on paper. I really like working small. My brother just let me know that our childhood neighbor and mother to our childhood playmates has passed away. She had pancreatic cancer and my thoughts and prayers are with the family.

The leaves are starting to change....

Well , we have decided as a family to do weekend hikes. This is a thrifty family fun time and it gets everyone out in the fresh air . We did a hike up to Cunningham falls and did some rock climbing. The boys loved it . We hit the apple orchard on the way home and have bowls of fresh apples, apple butter and cider. Now we just have to wait for the leaves to be in full color.

Enjoy your fall days! Talk to you soon,

Courtney
