An Athena owl I made of air-dry clay...one of the last hands-on projects we did while studying the Greeks. The kids all made them and I just couldn't keep my hands off so I made one too!
A Dragon-Worthy Hoard...my children collect jewelry and other shiny things -- to pile in their Dragon Hoard. This picture is dated, the hoard now takes up two shelves.
My 7yo son Tullius under the bridge -- the Natural Bridge, the world's largest naturally occurring travertine bridge, located north of Payson, AZ in Tonto National Forest. A wonderful place, especially when Grandpa leads the expedition and ever-cautious Mom & Grandma stay at the top!
Momo's 11th birthday pizza cakes -- thanks to the inspiring pictures and instructions from Smooth Stones Academy!
Gingerbread Nativity -- cute and oh, so crunchy!
2007 is coming to an end...I've been thinking about participating in a reading challenge called 888 . I've been thinking about playing World of Warcraft with my Harley Honey (two level 70 characters) and my 3 older kids (who all have characters in the low 60s). I've been thinking about how to *really* do school daily with my 2 younger kids.
And I've been thinking about being thankful. That is going to be my word for the year 2008: Gratitude. And I'm starting now, I'm grateful that you stopped by!!

I can't tell you how thrilled I am to see these new posts. I have missed you a great deal. Your presence makes a difference! I hope all is well.
Gratitude is a good one to choose. I need to work on so many things, I just don't know where to start! It makes my head spin.

PS: can you paint on the air dry clay? I need clay for art class and don't want mess with taking it to the school district, etc. Do you think something like this would work for making clay animals and painting them?
I know this post is old..but...I just love those pizza cakes!! I'm always looking for new, nifty b-day cake ideas. You've given me another to add to my 'list'. How neat (and simple) is THAT?
