Just completed these 2 birthday banners to be sent to Houston tomorrow!
I painted this canvas for little Carter's bathroom. It is patterned after a shower curtain from Target. Love the squirrel!
Thanks to Robin, one of my methods students from Sam, for getting some orders from her friends!
Last month, Todd had a mechanical class near Nashville for a week. The girls and I flew up there and spent some time in the Country Music Hall of Fame and a tour of RCA Studio B. What a Thrill to sit at the piano Elvis played at Studio B!
I think I got the biggest kick out of standing in front of the Hee Haw cornfield next to clothes worn by Grandpa Jones, Archie Campbell, Stringbean, and LuLu Roman!!!
Yes, Nashville was covered in snow! It was a balmy 21 degrees when we got there!
Who could not go to Nashville and not see the Grand Ole Opry? We were in luck because Charley Pride was performing!
The last month or so has not just been all play. I have been able to squeeze in some painting too.
This is my latest painting. I created one of these to put above my fireplace over the Christmas holidays and I love it! This one is for Todd's secretary, Amanda.
Even though it had begun to melt in this picture, our yard and pasture was a winter wonderland Friday morning when we woke up! So sNOw SCHOOL!(Lindsey had been out of school 3 days prior to this in Stephenville!) She did manage to come home Friday. Ashley came home too, Todd cook steaks, and we played Just Dance 2! It was a great end to a day off!
I know this is a little late, but here are some pictures from our Christmas Eve at home. We went to the Christmas Eve service at church, ate some good food, then opened presents. We snapped the picture below of Todd checking his facebook! He is just as bad as we are with Facebook!
OOOOOOHHH! Viva La Juicy!
Ashley is really happy with her 31 bag!
Putting together a vacuum can be hard work!
Ashley got her Aggie ring this past Friday along with 2000 other excited Aggies! It was a great day.
Todd presented her with her ring!
These ornaments are 4" wooden disks (no glass breaking!) and painted on both sides. They can be personalized, mongrammed, dated, or have a message put on front and back! $7 each. I have 4" square ones I am currently working on. Pictures to come!
Just finished this wooden chest for Mrs. Park. It will be in the court house for letters to soldiers, I believe.
I have been "oooohing" and "ahhhhhing" at all the subway art on the web lately, so I decided to paint one. I used an old cabinet door I had. With the use of the overhead projector, I had this done in a couple of evenings.
These dish towels were "web inspired" as well. I found them on "Just a Girl" blog a few weeks ago. After a trip to Walmart to get a few supplies, I had Halloween dishtowels for about $5!
Here is the before picture of the bookcase and nightstand. And the after................
The pillow and box shown is what the bedding looks like. The little girl's room is lime green, and the brown will look good against the walls. I was able to work outside in the garage this weekend because my fantastic husband bought me a portable air conditioner for my birthday! Who needs diamonds when you can have a cool garage to work in???
Finished Lesa's girls' table and chair set this weekend. These girls like pinks, purples, flowers, and hearts. Mom likes western, so I added a bandana print on the side.
The above and below signs were ordered by one of my former student teachers. She is teaching in Victoria this year. Hope you have a great year Jessica!
The Cat in the Hat says, "Come on in let's learn and do alot. We can't go outside since it is so very hot!"
This is Courtney's backsplash for her BUNKO party.
Lindsey's dorm accessories! She is going leopard, red, and black.
School is about to start and I still have SOOOO much to do! I am doing my classroom in Dr. Seuss theme this year. This sign will be outside on my bulletin board or maybe in my room! I can't decide.
My fabulous mother-in-law found this chair at a garage sale and just in time too. Heather wanted a chair for her classroom. I will deliver it to her tomorrow!
Heather likes giraffe print, flowers, and red is her favorite color. Me, too, Heather!
These teacher name signs are web inspired! I saw this cute pencil on Laurie Cole's website and knew I had to have one. Mine aren't exactly like hers, but she has some really cute ones. Oh, and Mrs. Stanton gets one too!
This is Jake's desk to match his room and bedding. I put chalkboard paint on the top so that he could write ON the desk too! Hope he and Jenna are enjoying their new rooms in their new home. 
Eleven TALENTED ladies came for the last paint party of the summer. (Alex and Ashley are not in this picture!) They had so many ideas I never would have thought of. The creativity was definitely flowing. Missed you girls that couldn't make it!
