Here it is only 2 weeks until Christmas, I don't have my shopping done, haven't wrapped a thing, the house isn't decorated, we still have to have the carpet cleaned, we don't have a tree yet, I still want to bake a couple batches of cookies and I just sent out invitations to 18 families to join me to paint ornaments at the ceramics shop on Friday evening. Am I out of my mind? .......... Well, worse than usual that is! I have wanted to invite a group to paint for a while and this was the only time I could see that I could do it, so I took the plunge and arranged to have a get together.


Actually it won't be a ton of work for me, I just have to go to the shop and paint on Friday evening and people will come and join me. I did say I would have a little snack there and people could bring something if they wanted to. So some cookies and maybe chocolate will do.


Everyone will be choosing and paying for their own pieces from ornaments to bowls or platters, they can paint whatever they want in whatever price range they want to pay. There are drinks there so I don't need to worry about that either, just need to check with Mark, the owner, and be sure he is stocked up on drinks.


I think we will have a lot of fun, hopefully we will have a good sized group. If everyone comes there will be almost 50 people there. I highly doubt that though. And it is like an open house thing, ya know, come any time between 5:00 and 11:00. I think it will be a lot of fun. I invited all my family and friends.


Too bad none of you live in my area, y'all could come too.

Don't know why he would want to travel and be a photographer than be an accountant huh? I'm glad he does what he does, although it is tough having him away so much doing the shows.


Keep an eye on his schedule, he is in Chantilly or near that area a few times a year.

Great website and photos, Kristie! I even found a photo of a place where my mother used to live and that I visited with her a couple of times. I got all misty-eyed!
