Today is the last day I will have three of my children living full-time in the house.
Today is the last day that Corinne will be "under-thumb".
Beginning tomorrow-she will live at Miami in the dorms.
Exciting-yes. Bittersweet-absolutely.
Today Shelly started the tenth grade at LU.
She is the last of my kids to attend the High school full time.
Ian will be going to the career center beginning Monday.
Wow- have things changed.
I better get ready.

Happy first day of school.

Back to School
It's hard to believe that it's already that time again !
Summer has passed SO quickly--seems like it just started-
and here we go again--BACK TO SCHOOL !
This year, a little different for me-
instead of 5 in school- down to three.
Corinne heads off to Miami U. in Oxford- moving into the dorm
Aug 20th for her freshman year-- GO CORI !!
Ian will be heading to Eastland Career Center for his Junior year
in the Electrical Technology Program- I think this will be a great fit
for him and he seems excited to get started on a new path.
And Shelly will be starting her Sophomore year at LU-- the youngest of
the kids and the last at the HS.
hard to believe.
The clothes have been purchased.
The supplies in the bag.
Dorm Room crammed full.
The house seems quiet.
Missing my older kids.
Missing when they were all excited to start their first day of school- new lunchboxes in tow- the coolest "light-up velcro" Disney character shoes (had to have those),taking the 1st day of school photos....
wow-
time sure passes quickly-
enjoy while it's here.
have a safe "back-to-school"-
ENJOY !

Long time- No blog....
So summer is passing so quickly---
where has the time gone ?
Classes at the studio are full of fun and frolick-
lots of cool stuff going on.
we now have lots of new ceramic pieces in the studio to
add your own artistic touch to-
then we will fire them for you to pick up !!
Great afternoon activity with the kids.
More classes coming for the rest of July and into August for kids, teens and Adults
in all mediums-if there was a class that you missed because of vacation (or camp...whatever) and you don't see it offered- be sure to call---we will see what we can do- or if we have something close that would be a good substitute.
Thanks to Bev Kenney and her 4-Hr's for coming into the studio to work on their fair project--we made a beautiful FUSED GLASS PENDANT - this is alot of fun.
you can try this too at our walk in on the 25th of July between (11am-3pm) $20-create a pendant.
we have welcomed several new artists into the gallery as well-
Welcome Kathleen Leppert- she has a very nice display of primitive oils and also has delivered beautiful new jewelry pcs designed with precious stones.
stop in soon--
