Bobbi and I were talking last week about what makes us who we are. We were taking about all the projects we use to do as kids. Sewing, knitting, art and 4-H. Mom & Grandmas that sewed and taught us to bake & cook. We think this is what has made us crazy project creative people. Are kids today missing out?? So today I finally organized my newly scanned 400 childhood photos and I found a lot of photos that reminded me why I turned out the way I did. I feel very lucky for having two creative parents, any very lucky they passed their passion on to me.
This is my winning kindergarten poster, it won 1st place in the whole state.
"What Safety Means to Me". I guess this is my very first graphic design.

Every year in July the family went to the Art Festival in Omaha. Here Bryce, mom & I are making art projects in the kids area. This was the best!
Birthday parties. These were our childhood favorites.
That is my mom in the witch costume. Fall, halloween & birthdays are the best!

Dad built her out of snow! Oh, the coolest!!!!

4-H and sewing. The annual summer torture! I remember having to rip out all the not perfect seems and start over. Mom was very patient with me. It must have been worth it. I won a purple ribbon and it went to state. I remember re-doing the collar/lapel over and over!
So...I think this kind of explains why I am the way I am :)
