Art Every Day Month

Day 9 of Art Every Day Month!!

Don't forget, you can see more wonderful art HERE.

Yesterday, I had the best day ever in my art room. 

Here is what came out of it:

Lots of paint, pattern paper,

De Arche crayons, stencils,

a Tim Holtz stamp,

and the thoughts of when we are standing together, we are always stronger.

(Plus a shot from my fun new phone app:)

Who will you stand with today?

Art Every Day Month

What a difference a couple of hours in my art room can make in a day! I was able to finish the next page in my sketchbook project. Today I'm back in my favorite spot in the house...

And I'm happier than happy,

as I feel I'm doing exactly what I'm supposed to be doing today.

I found a cool new photo app for my IPhone from Kris over at Cherishdesigns-check it out!

I'm plugging in my favorite music today and working away to 

Lady Antebellum and my new fav:

Nickelback, When We Stand Together. Click the song title to hear it. 

LOVE.

Fun stuff with the new phone app...

I'm excited to be able to continue this sketchbook project. I've got it on my calendar to go see ALL of them, including mine (!!!!!!!!!) May 25th-26th in Los Angeles.

Have a happy creating day!!

Art Every Day Month

Today's entry for AEDM is pretty special to our family.

It's photos from HOMECOMING!!

Ready?

Getting ready with the girls.

Brenn's teacher, who we love!

Sophomore prince.

Proud papa!

Walking out to the field.

Love this.

Pretty darn cold for us Souther Californians-45 degrees and rainy. The rain stopped right at half time, so we did not have to postpone the festivities.

The court, and someone rescued Brenna with a jacket!

The BEST fan club, EVER.

Well, with the exception of her sister.

Umm...and her mom.

Queen for the night.

Senior girls.

Love that they all wore boots!

Brenna is all excited for the big dance tonight.

I held it together pretty well during half time. The only time I lost it was when my sweet husband turned to me and said, "Well, did you every think seventeen years ago in the hospital room that we would be here, experiencing this?"

Such a blessed life.

Art Every Day Month

I'l continue the Art Every Day Month (AEDM) by showing you the next pages of my Hope sketchbook.

It's kind of a crazy project, in that I fight feelings of wondering what people will think, should they pick it up to look through it.  I imagine there will be thousands to look through, but what if someone picks mine up? Will it encourage them? Will they wonder what my thoughts were as I did each page? Will they put it down to look for something better? Does one EVER get past the negative thoughts when they put their artwork out for the world to see?

"Blackbird" is one of my all time favorite Beatle's songs.

Today is the day to get Her Royal Highness ready for Homecoming court!!! Pray for the nervous, excited, giddy parents!

Art Everyday Month

Hi, all! Thank you so much for all your kind words and encouragement over our newly crowned princess. I read each and every comment to her and she had a lot of fun hearing all the encouragement. Lots of love and hugs were given!
This month, I'm participating in two venues. One is Art Every Day Month over at Leah's at www.creativeeveryday.com
The other is the sketchbook project, which you can find out more by going to
www.arthousecoop.com/projects/sketchbookproject.
I'm a bit behind on the art every day, but my first post will be my sketchbook. I chose the topic of HOPE.
(Hope) you will continue to stop by and see what transpires!!!

Royalty In The House

This is the last post for the 31 for 21 series, and as promised, it's a keeper.
This week is spirit week at school. Today was pop culture day, so Brenna dressed as Justin Bieber. Big surprise, right? Actually the big surprise came at the end of chapel, when the Homecoming court was announced. Take a wild guess at who was voted by her class for Sophomore Princess?
Brenna.
Holy cow. She is beyond thrilled and has the.biggest.smile.ever.
And roses.
Best if all? Brenna has the love, friendship and support of her class behind her.
