Three Peaches in Beaverdam

My Mom's girlfriend, Kennon, was visiting this past week from Hollywood and had us all over to her sister, Billie's house for a BBQ on Sunday night *Billie lives in Beaverdam...near our house out here in Hanover.* Billie's house was filled with all kinds of cool, eclectic art, antique furniture, fun old Barbies...and just all around, way awesome stuff---sorta like a sweet museum with all the things I like :o). She is an artist herself and lots of the art work around her home is her own and close friends of hers. She also has her own *AMAZING* art studio there. Totally radical...and I can only hope to have my own "little spot of heaven" to create some art one day.

Her daughter, Edie, really took a liking to Ansleigh and Hudson. She took A into zeee Studio to make this cute little jewelry box, they watched Cinderella together (ummm, Ansleigh's FAV), swung on the swing set...she was just the sweetest thing. So much fun. Of course, it was great seeing Kennon...it's been way too long. She was JUST the same---fun, fun, fun.

As I was leaving, I told Billie how much I enjoyed looking at all of her art, but I especially loved that "peach picture" that was hanging out in the studio. She said, "Well then...It's yours". Ok. I have GOT to be the luckiest person ever. I couldn't believe she just GAVE it to me. I was SO thrilled...I went to Ben Franklin on Monday to have it framed. Even luckier, it wasn't suppose to be ready until August 27th...and guess who got a call today saying it was ready. Oh yeah...oh yeah...happy dance....happy dance.
