Surprise Dad! Merry Christmas!

Well, I made it...all the way to Christmas day and dad knew NOTHING of my “mud-slinging” exploits! I think it was a big hit!

Dad opening his gift!


He was surprised & excited to see that I have taken an intrest in turning...boy, now the pressure is really on! Ha!


It was really nice to have the family together to share in the surprise, and we had a white Christmas! (first one in 28 years!) My next class starts on Jan 1oth, wish me luck...


I’ll keep you updated on the progress...not ready to quit my day job just yet...

Last class of the session!

Class #8 and I am so sad it’s over! I think I will continue this endeavor though...it’s in my blood, and I can’t give up just yet. The next session starts in January, sign me up!

Now if I can only keep this secret for 3 more weeks! It’s been so hard not to talk about it to dad, but I want him to be surprised on Christmas Day with the first piece of pottery I made.

I made a few more pieces today, but nothing special, just a few crooked little pots.
