Holiday Heaven

How was your 4th? We had a great day. The girls all made it in safe and sound to sister Evie's house. FAR Studios personnel are all together for one whole week!

Lena brought a beautiful ribbon wreath to go in the shop. It's bright and yellow and very cheerful. Everyone fell in love with Evie's newest papier mache creations.

Evie's test projects for outdoors have done very well. The new finish seems to be handling heat and rain just fine. We wonder if her new stool can be finished in a way to allow it to be used in a garden. Wouldn't that be grand!

We had half the neighborhood over for food, fun and fireworks yesterday. The girls pulled up just in time for the start of the festivities so we were able to introduce them to most of our friends. What a wonderful time!

Lena wants to take mom's owl painting home so mom will have to do a new one for the shop. She'll do another owl and she wants to try a kitty portrait. We asked "Moonie" if she would pose for it but she hasn't gotten back to us (meow).

We all missed Ray and are praying the time goes fast til we are together once more.

Audrey was bothered a little in church today by the Baptist belief in "the elect". We explained the verses and the reason the concept should not frighten her. It's a tough one to swallow when first encountered. Ray's blog might help. Have a look at it some day.

Well, gotta go. Have a wonderful week and remember God in it.
