Stephie the Artist

These past few weeks have been CRAZY to say the least!  Evan and I started out by flying to Ohio to visit with my Mom, Dad, and Steph.  We were planning on spending close to two weeks with them.  However, we ended up making an impromptu trip to New York for the funeral of my amazing grandfather Big John.  It was a very nice ceremony.  Big John was in the Navy, so it was a military service.  Jimmy was able to make the trip and wore his Dress Blue Uniform in honor of Big John.  I hated the reason why we had to make the trip but it was so nice to see my family and have everyone meet Evan.  I was able to spend time with aunts, uncles, and cousins that I hadn't seen in a while.  It was a wonderful relief from the mounting stress my family was experiencing at the time!  I have some pictures from our time with the family that I will post soon.  I would post them today, however I left my camera at my Aunt Rosemary's house and she will be mailing it too me soon!

I do however, have some pictures of a field trip Evan and I took to Stephanie's art school.  We were able to see her studio, print shop, office, and some of her pieces of art.  I was thrilled to be able to go!  We met some more of her amazing and talented classmates.  So much fun!  These pictures were taken with my phone, so they aren't the best quality!!

A print of Steph's that will be in her Senior Art Show.  My Mom has already claimed ownership after the show!

She also received a scholarship for her amazing artwork.  As a result, she was recently asked to participate in a news cast to help raise funds for the Wright State University Arts Program.  Click on the link below to watch :)

Steph the Super Star

 I am so proud of my amazingly talented little sister!  She has more creativity in her little finger than I do in my whole body!  I cannot wait for her graduation in June.  She has worked so hard for this and I know she is going to move on and do creative and inspiring work.  Love you Steph!

Our next stop is Aunt Katie's science class room in Alabama!!
