I am having a lush birthday weekend with loads going on and lots of generosity.
I attended a whole day painting workshop and painted a portrait. It's not fab by any means but as the artist said - numerous times - the aim wasn't to paint a masterpiece but rather to learn techniques we could use at a later date on our own. That was good as I certainly didn't pain a masterpiece. I may post it when I have finished ... I may not. The important thing was I had a fabulous day and then we went to a great party which was lots of fun. It means wine - I don't really drink much these days so that was a change - and laughs and a late night so today has been QUIET!
I have been spoilt with lovely gifts including a totally unexpected gift from our good friend in Florida which is awesome and some lovely fun things from Nigel as well as some super gifts. He knows me so well and every gift made me smile.
I have a new page to share made with our photos from Tuesday when we worked so hard (for twenty minutes!) It was a fun page to complete and was also for Shimelle's scrapbook challenge of a repeated title.
Today I am thankful for
- friends and family
- so many good wishes
- wonderful gifts
- a very lazy day
HAPPY BIRTHDAY KAREN!!! I'm glad you had a fun time.
