Weekend Edition - Art Festival

This weekend was the Sugar Creek Arts Festival in our town that we love to attend every year.  We always see some interesting art, watch the entertainment and have some good food.  This year there were 170 artists booths to check out in the sweltering heat.

I bought a really cute hand painted dress for Emma for next summer that can also be worn as a top the next year.  I also bought this great necklace from an artist, Weener Ware.  She makes jewelry made out of recycled bottle caps.

This is similar to what I bought, except mine is a dragonfly.  The artist puts mini-pictures in the bottle cap, accents with gems and glitter and pours on liquid resin.

Last week, the boys came home from preschool with t-shirts they made this summer.  They had a class picture taken with all of the kids in their shirts.  They were so excited to show their daddy when he came home for lunch.  Whenever they have a surprise, they always make daddy close his eyes and make a huge production of showing off whatever it is they have made.
