I am a farm girl, married to my high school sweetheart. We grew up on farms 9 miles apart and went through 12 years of school together. I liked him in grade school, but it took until we were Juniors in high school to get him interested in me as more than a friend. I have never lived more than 10 miles from home, except in college, but have travelled as far as France, Germany and Switzerland. We live on our own farm and have raised three of our six kids. The last three are growing up fast.
For art this semester, I have subscribed to a monthly art box from Let's Make Art. I was caught by their unique, appealing projects, and the sensible membership requirements. We have painted three of the four projects from the first month and are thrilled with this option. All projects are watercolor, and there is also a lettering subscription which we have not tried (yet!)
Our talented D-I-L competed in her store's cake decorating contest again this year. We all look forward to seeing what she produces. She us super talented and artistic.
In August, I took a day trip to Wessington Springs, SD, with my friend, Lori and her neighbor. We stopped in town for lunch and a little shopping, then toured the Shakespeare Garden and Ann Hathaway House.
