artsy fartsy & grandpa phil

grandpa phil was in town this week & brought ben what every grandson wants for his birthday - hotwheels! we had a fun time visiting & trying to put the thing together. once it is together - watch out.
as beano says,"it's super cool!"

it was open house at the mitchell art academy this weekend. the turnout was great! we had a wonderful time there visiting with darbs & jl & making masterpieces.
i love how hard at work everyone is on their pieces.

if you have the chance, i highly rec commend going. miss laura is so sweet & it's great family time. we're starting to be regulars there!
