Fleur de Aleta

I love my job :)  Everyone at the office is great and each day I work there is a confirmation that it's a blessing to be there. Recently the law firm participated in a cook off to support the pro bono cases.  Greg and I painted the huge canvas for the booth.  We started the painting in February and the cook off was in March. The canvas started at the front door, went around the corner, the entire dining room wall and around the corner into the hallway. By the front door. Painting the sky Joy, who heads up the booth work, came by the see how the progress was coming along.  She liked it. Time for clouds Water is in and the outline of the shrimp boat is blocked out. As a joke, Greg put Al Derbes picture in the boat window.  Joy and I loved the idea, so it came to be. Shrimp boat coming to life. Boat water reflection complete, background land complete and working on the nets. I painted the birds :)  Do you see th

The above picture is the "cover picture" I just posted on Facebook.  Couldn't resist that saying - perfect for Gregory.  They say a picture "is worth a thousand words..."  I have a few thousand coming your way!! At Mike Miley he climbed the way to the top of the rock climbing wall! When Gregory saw another child at the end of the tunnel, he screamed and held up his hand! Not big on the tricycle yet See what he is holding?  Gregory is a hoarder!  He carries as many toys as he can and won't share. But he loves to help out around the house and yard! OK, next picture is cute and sad.  Gregory is learning the spider monkey cling.  But when Daddy flipped Gregory over, Gregory didn't want to let go of his toys and at the bottom of the flip, his head made contact with the tile floors.  No bleeding, bruise yes, tears yes, but he is fine.  The background picture will be explained in a different blog post :)
