Rest?
Whew! So many things to write about so I'll try to recap quickly! For those family members reading, Eden's birthday list is at the bottom of this post.
Art of Dining was Friday night and I found out kinda last minute that it was this past weekend. To last minute to find another babysitter, and since Joel had a ten page paper to write and Ari has done so much for me I took Ari! It was very applicable for her since she is in school studying AIDS research, and she loves art! It was so fun, but I feel I have forgotten how to socialize. I was in a blur, like "what do I do in this scenario?" Plenty of my classmates were there, and after Ari had to leave I hung out with Lauren and we were sorely disappointed that the live auction was not more exciting and heated. My little plate sold for $80 in the silent auction!! So cool. It got 3 bids. My other classmates had some excellent entries. Especially Alissa, Josh, Lauren and Brea.
Lauren is starting a gallery in Canton and heck fire I'm gonna have work there!
Ari and Tim came over to play our new game on Saturday night. It was fun actually getting to talk with Ari and not just shout over little kid noise. Josiah does not share attention or toys very often. It was hilarious as Tim and I dodged controversy and Joel and Ari went for each others throat. Let's just say we have different opinions on public education. But it's nice to have some gameing/art/drinking buddies now that the Perkins are headed for potato country.
Gideon turned 3 this past week and we had a great ruckus at his house with the cousins and neighborhood kids. Happy Birthday Gid! We'll miss all those boys so much. I tried to soak up some Isaac and Phineas time too.
Sunday I did what I usually do, and I tried to work on paintings. But where did I put my staple gun! Argh! I have been battling with Celebrate Beauty all semester and I had this crazy idea to crop it. I brought empty stretchers to class and told Robert and class that I'd like to crop it and they thought that was an excellent idea. I'm kinda bummed that I couldn't pull off the whole photo, I kinda feel like I failed Brent who actually took the photo. I still have dellusions that I might fulfill the whole composition on seperate canvases.
The Weigers have commited to purchase "Be Still" and Skip has been harassed by his wife to buy a couple pods. Get 'em while their hot folks!
I have found some hot opps on craigslist atlanta. I have an appointment for this restaurant by Candler Park next week. I can't wait to show there! Sounds great!
Here's a site I have only begun to scratch the surface of: www.callingmarcel.com
KSU Student show has it's opening this thursday. Be Still, Metro 3 and Lioness are entered, we'll see what gets in.

Yay, yay, yay!!!! My constant begging since before Christmas has finally paid off! Can't WAIT to find a new home for them on one of our oh-so-many bare and boring walls around here.
