…so I’m sure you’ve noticed all of the new changes. What do ya think? I totally love it!
I’d like to give a big THANK YOU to Shaina for helping me make my blog look so fun and lively. She designed my lovely new header and all the cute new buttons on the sidebar. If you ever decide that you need a “makeover” for your blog, make sure to contact her. She’ll make sure it fits who you are and what you like, and I promise you’ll be thrilled with the result.
As for an update on my life, let’s just say that life has been life. It’s absolutely wonderful some days, and it has its twist and turns every now and then. This year, however, has taught me to just let go and enjoy life. Here’s a quote from Regina Brett: “If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else’s, we’d grab ours back.”
Yesterday, we went to Petroglyph. It’s a place where you get to express your creativity by painting on ceramic. We’ve been a few times before, but we felt an urge to take a trip. Here are some pictures to share:
I decided to paint a big platter!
Here I go... (I suck at painting!)
It's too bright to see the plate, but I'll take a picture when I pick it up.
Pick one and paint it!
After we finished our projects, we walked around Willow Glen. While exploring, we found this really cute candy shop called Powell’s Sweet Shoppe. I swear it had every type of candy, and it even had vintage candy too! We had a ton of fun exploring around the store, and sampling different kinds of candy of course!
Gloria found some of her favorites.
M&M's in every color.
Check out all of the vintage gum!
The dogs wanted to wish everyone a fabulous weekend. *High paws*
"I love the weekends! Time to party! Woof!"
"It's the weekend; do I get more treats?!"
Okay, now it’s getting too late for me handle, so I’m gonna end it there.
Hugs,
sarah.

Bryn & I just went to a pottery painting place a couple days ago, too! I forgot to bring my camera & only had my Blackberry phone. Doubt I’ll be able to use those photos for a LO though…
♥ the new look of the blog!

Love your blog…we used to have a place here where you can paint ceramics, but they closed. Wish they would open another one.
