It's been a long time

Gee it feel like forever since I have been here. I really miss blogging so decided to take some time today to update everyone. We have been busy with schooling and 4H and horse competitions and I just can't wait to share all of it with you all.

First of all I want to share pictures from a beautiful Garden I went to. We took the children so that they can draw the flowers that were in bloom and then learn to watercolor them and photograph them. We are going to display their art at the local library next weekend. Here are the photo's I took and I will share the children's work later next week.

I just love the way Joe and Ruth have this garden set up. There are different sections for everything. I wish I could remember the names of all the flowers they are so beautiful. I am going to take my printed pictures back to Ruth and ask her to tell me what they are and then I am going to write the names on the back so that when I put them in my art journal I will remember what they are.

It was a wonderful day at the Gardens, we took a small tour and then sat to eat our lunch, then the children set out to draw their favorite flowers. When everyone was done, I helped them with the colors and the paint strokes to get the look they wanted. It was good for me as well as the children. I am really trying to get the hang of mingeling my colors and making the object look as realistic as possible.

Aren't the flowers just beautiful!

Stop back by soon, I will have the pictures from the horse competition up in no time.

* Share a Blessing!
