The Adventure-club!

Here are the final products from last time when we did the glass fusion.

This time we just hung out and had fun, we brought items to make layettes for when Gillian and Amy go to Haiti.

We all had a good time visiting and chatting.  We didn't have a book this month because we decided we didn't have enough time to finish it before this meeting, next month we'll be discussing The Help.

 Even when we don't read a book we always manage to have a great time.  Weather it's playing Pandemic, petting the dog, or chatting about everything, it's always a good time.

Yacht Party?

For this month's book club we got to go to a glass studio and make pendants.

It was a lot of work making all of the tiny pieces look just the way you wanted them to but it was a blast having everyone together.

The process involved lots of little parts of glass that you layered together in a sort of collage which then got melted down to make a lovely pendant that you could use as a necklace!

We all had a great time learning about glass and hanging out with friends. (here we have almost caught a photo of the elusive pillow-head. Better luck next time.)

It was a lot of work but we managed to make it a lot of fun too.

After the pendants were done we got to mess around for a while before sitting down for cake and having our chat about the book of the month, "Here Today" by Ann Martin.

These are the necklaces before being put in the kiln and fired down, I can't wait to see how they all turned out!

This was a surprise for the girls from the moms who kept telling us the surprise was they were buying a yacht.  So when Liana and I made a cake we called it a yacht party.  While it was no yacht party it was a unique surprise and a fun adventure in it's own way. (Plus, who want's to go on a yacht during April in Ohio? brr.)

As always this outing with these wonderful ladies was spectacular and I can't wait for
 next time!
