We love Oregon...

Rachel and I took another painting class at Vine Gogh.  This time it was at the Sellwood location.  Definitely like Tigard best!  This one has not so great acoustics and when it gets semi-rowdy, which the group of 12 women near the front were, it was hard to hear, let alone think.  We still had a great time and love our paintings!  

Creative stuff from 2014...

When I looked back on all that I made last year, I didn't realize just how MUCH I really did.  Cool stuff.  Some on-time only and other's, way more times than I'd like to count!!  Glad I love to crochet as much as I do!

Vine Gogh...

Bev and I  had a blast tonight at Vine Gogh in Tigard.  Fowl Night...so much fun!  

 

Christmas Eve...

Victor and Charlotte made cookies for Santa tonight....

Charlotte worked on one of the two owls Eldin left for her to paint herself...

Yoda, Yoda, Yoda...

No more pictures!

I was trying to get photos of her painting her new bird house...she wasn't really into the photo taking, until I did a little bargaining....so those that think she's always picture perfect, she's NOT!

But when she wants to smile, there is nothing better in the world!

Monet al la Charlotte...

Fun times tonight at the house...Charlotte got to paint on a new canvas and I got a really cool painting when I got home tonight! Victor took photos of the masterpiece in the making!

I really do think it looks kinda "Monet-ish"...

Post #1000..."Welcome Home...Love, Eldin"...

THANK YOU MARIA!!! Why I smiled today...Coming home and finding a few expected and unexpected surprises!!!

Outside the house looks great. We have a brand spankin' newly painted outside and Tricorn black door (love it--great suggestion Maria)...

Inside we have a newly painted staircase and upstairs hallway--it looks GREAT, (I just can't remember the color name--must get that from Maria)...we also had two VERY COOL SURPRISES!!!!

These 3 very cute little pumpkins with our initials and a "Welcome HOME. Love Eldin" fishy note! ;-)




Before we went upstairs, we were trying to eat our fast food lunch, Charlotte went upstairs and kept saying "can't open my door, help peez"....We finally went upstairs and I just started to seriously laugh & SMILE!!! Charlotte's door was shut, but hanging on the door knob was her very own little Home Depot kid sized apron with her name on it, along with her very own paint brush!!!

Thanks Eldin...WE love it!!!
