Crazy computer problems

Sorry guys, no pictures this time. Our computer is on the outs and the nerd herd is working on the problem. I am hoping to be back on line in the next week or so. At the moment I am at Sloan's old school, my old job and I have access to a computer so I thought that I would take advantage of the situation. It has been nice to see all the kid's and the teachers. I still love being at home with my little ones, and wouldn't give it up for any amount of money. Hopefully when I am able to write again I can add pictures of the painting I am starting. Until then take care!

Last art show at Never Ender

This was a nice show. Ahren's stuff was really great as usual. Jen, his wife did a lovely job on her show in the other side of the gallery. Her soft sculpture animals were very whimsical. My favorite sculpture was the bird who ate the worm, and the worm started eating the bird. The inside of the bird was very interesting. I am sad that Never Ender is closing its doors. Amber the owner, is however going to keep Never Ender going as an online store. She will continue to sell unique clothing, hand crafted item's from local crafter's, and will host art shows at different locations. Amber is always very supportive of local artist's and crafter's. The art scene here in Reno is slim to Nil, not due to the lack of talent, just the lack of support for up and coming artists. It is nice to know that people like Amber are still trying to show support for the struggling artist. I have included Ahren's, and Never Ender's website on my link list. I have also included other sites of interest under my link list. Some are artist site's, crafter site's, or just kind of fun blogs or web site's to check out. Have fun taking a look around and be sure to show support for your local artists and crafter's.

This was a super special birthday. It was so fun to have family and friends come by and join in the celebration. How blessed we truly are!

Happy Halloween

I wanted to post this on Halloween night, however we have had a nasty virus hit our computer. It has made pretty much everything Internet related impossible to use. The crazy thing is Dean and I are really careful about where we go on the net and what we open. It just goes to show you can be hit by these nasty bugs when you least expect it. Thankfully Dean's dad was kind enough to work on our computer on his visit to Reno this weekend. Thanks David! Its almost back to normal now. We just have a few more kinks to iron out.

Sweet Sloan

Today little Sloan painted while I worked on paperwork and set up Dr. appointments for her. Isn't she a cutie with her new glasses? I love this little girl more than all the stars in the sky. Tonight we went as a family to the mall to exchange a few items. Then we went to get Sloan's new ballet and tap shoes. She told me that the tap shoes we bought tonight are, of coarse, the best.
