New Choir Robes!


Brand new choir robes for Christmas! Aren't they pretty?
This is quite a feat, since we haven't had new robes since....since....well...hm.
This is the first time we have EVER had new choir robes!
Our church is almost 200 years old and, to my knowledge, this is a first.
They are made of peachskin fabric, which is WAY soft and comfy. We bought new stoles from the 'seconds' bins and only paid $4.50 each for them! Two reversable sets equals 4 colors to choose from each week.
We wore purple and white for the Christmas services. We can also choose red or gold.
We love sportin' our new robes!

Painting Fun

Painting fun with Liz, Jessica and Hannah. Liz likes Marilyn Monroe, so that was the subject. We talked about taking it too far....
and working it to death.


We talked about changing the colors to your own liking.


We talked about negative space and the absence of lines.....



We talked about Heath Ledger and the Joker, the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Albert Einstein.

We had fun. Merry Christmas.
