St. Martha Catholic School Artists

I will be participating again this year in Via Colori 2010 benefiting the Center for Hearing and Speech. If you are looking for something to do this weekend - come on down to Sam Houston Park to see 250 artists drawing on the streets of downtown Houston! Its a great festival! Hope to see you all there! http://www.houstonviacolori.com/

....The kids will love making these!....a bunch of Nutcrackers standing watch over the baby Jesus!! - just hope we can get to them....!

So yesterday, on my day off, I get a text from my daughter...."Mom, I need 3 yards of fabric for tomorrow! Please, go to the fabric store!!" These texts have become very common these days so I just do as she asks and go to the fabric store, besides it is one of my favorite places next to Lowes, Hobby Lobby, etc. :) Standing in line, I see under the counter stacks of the cardboard that the fabric is wrapped around. I tell myself, "dont ask!" (since my husband has already threatened to kick all of my recylables out of the garage!!) but I cant help myself and ask...."what do y'all do with those??"

Well, its not because we disappear - its because we get really busy around this time of year. Currently, we are working on our entries for the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo due at Reliant Center on the day we return from Christmas Break..!

Just a little FYI - This year we are not participating in the Casino Night and preparing projects for the Auction. After talking with Mrs. Lewis, we decided that the golf tournament might be a better time for us to prepare some pretty awesome projects. However, we are still trying to decide if that will work - I will definitely keep you all informed! I will be posting some pictures soon! so come back in the next day or two to see ou...
