Lunch and Pottery Painting

I knew that it would be special for Sage if we all came to eat lunch with her one day this week, so we did that on Thursday. She was thrilled to see us there, as were several of her classmates, particularly some of the boys. One boy was fascinated and shouted out simple math problems that he knew in what I can only assume to be an effort to impress. We picked up Subway and brought it since there was no way I was eating school cheese pizza. I paid my dues with that.

Here's a cute picture of the group.

That afternoon, Emily hosted a pottery party at Precious Prints Pottery. I had never been here, and I have been missing out. My kids LOVED it, and there are so many things there for great gifts, too.
For Jaggar, we chose a Rudolph ornament, since...let's face it, he could care less.

Sage chose a "diva kitty." I was more than impressed with her precision and skill. She took a little more than an hour getting it to look exactly how she wanted it. She did NOT get this from me. I am not nor have I ever been the least bit skilled in anything relating to art.

Sage and Emily

Jaggar was very into the toys that they had there and the dog that was running around.

I did let him do the back of it (when I realized there was one) however he wanted.

Look at the feet of her cat! I think that is so cool.

And what kitty is a diva without black eyeliner all around the eyes? She did every bit of this on her own, and I will be more than happy to display this anywhere in my home. Though, I am pretty sure she already has a place in mind for it in HER room.

Completely unrelated, but later that evening...Sage continues to put any of my shoes on that aren't on my feet.

Out of focus...but he had to have a picture, too.
