It's A Party!

Happy Birthday Kristen!

Kristen and her mom, Debbie and her sister Lauren have painted with me several times in the past.

This is Kristen in her lovely home, she and her husband have built.

That stone with hydrangeas in the background is one of the things she's painted with me and when her husband was installing the back splash, he wanted her stone in there. 

How fun is that.

Her sweet hero husband Jim,

planned out a surprise birthday party for her.

She knew nothing about the party until I showed up.

It was so much fun seeing her reaction.

Kristen and 11 friends and family members

all gathered around her huge dining room table

and painted fall pumpkins.

There were parents, a sister, work friends and church friends painting.

We even had 3 men, which doesn't happen very often.

They were a hoot.

I had up the demo painting and they had their paint and brushes,

so the three of them forged ahead.

Heck, they didn't need instructions.

And they didn't.

I also loved hearing them as they ragged on each other about their paintings.

It was a beautiful fall day,

and when we finished, we all went out on Kristen and Jim's porch

and were "Blinded by the Light".

Are you humming along to that tune.

I know you can't see everyone's face, but

isn't their art work great.
