Up and coming Artist

Almost two weeks ago Amira had a three day weekend from school, so we were going to take a little road trip and get out of town for a couple of days but due to the terrible weather we ended up staying home. I was a bit disappointed because we haven't gone anywhere in quite some time and was really looking forward to the change of scenery if just for a couple of days. However, be that as it may, we were cooped up indoors for a couple of days and on the third day I had had it-----terrible weather or not we were going out and doing something.

So pondering over the things we could do on the budget we had and the dreary rainy weather we were facing, we decided to check out this place called Petroglyph Ceramic Lounge. We had such a wonderful time. It was the perfect way to spend a number of hours out of the stormy weather and not starring at your own same four walls. :-)

Here are our creations.

I love that place!! Angela paints a picture frame there every year for her school picture. I have one for every picture since Kindergarten!! So funny, I was going to ask you last weekend if you wanted to go there, then I ran out of money!! :)

Oh Ibeebarbie, this is always a hit idea. And of course I love the colours that Amira used :P
Pearl loves this too as this is the time she is allowed to 'dirty' her hands!!

OOoookay...I have no idea why I've been taking all worng... You're Amira's mom? How did I get the sense that you were her sis? Sure beats me! lol
Nevertheless, you seem to be working things out well, and I'm glad you're the type who would go to extremes to get of the monotonous flow of life.

Keep it up sis ;)
