Here is a great pic of my Hannah Grace

We have a 2:00 appointment today with the neurologist because of a seizure Hannah had Christmas night. Its been 8 years since she had her last one, so this one took us by surprise, I suppose as they always have.

Here is my update on this weekends flower

The chalk swirl at the top right I plan on removing

Have a great Monday

Lisa

I hope your holidays have been good.

We have had my sister in from Texas, which is always fun for us : )

This painting is done on a small block of wood,

maybe 3X3

It's that Mother wanting to protect her daughter in me

The painting below I started last night

3ft x 2ft

At this point I'm trying to decided what to put in the center of these flowers and if I want a branch up in the top right hand corner...hmmmm

Have a great weekend

Lisa

My pups enjoying the cold : )

I wanted to check in with you all

The art sale thing went well

I came home with less then I brought so that was a good thing.

Of course we have been busy getting ready for Christmas

which will be here in like just a few days!

Tomorrow Hannah Grace will be in the church Christmas pagent, then bake home to finish baking and wrapping.

I hope you all are keeping warm

Austin's Tree

Wrapped canvas

Austin's Tree

Our friend Austin was diagnosed with Medulloblastoma

A malignant brain tumor

We met Austin 8 years ago when my daughter started kindergarten and have been heart sick over this diagnoses of our dear friend.

Last night was a benefit to raise money for him & his family

They had a turn out of almost 200 people!

My daughter & I created this painting for their silent auction

and once again it came back home with us. I have this problem of letting paintings go sometimes.

If the bid doesn't go high enough for me...I just become the highest bidder.

Next Sunday is the sale that I'm in once a year, so this week will be busy trying to figure out what I'm taking and what still needs finishing.

Hope your weekend was a good one.
