They aren't naked anymore!



They have glaze on them! Yay! Lizzy is quite a cutie with something on her! We had quite a weekend....



My poor old kiln is hanging tough but I've had my eye out for a used kiln. I had 3 excellent kilns pass me by on craigslist and I was getting pretty pissy! Finally a listing popped up and I pounced! I am the proud new owner of an older (but excellent condition) Cress kiln! She's a beauty and totally worth the 75 mile trek! Saturday found us at my son's TaeKwonDo testing. We'll see by Tuesday if he passed. Today was a beautiful birthday party for our beautiful 9 year old friend Naomi. The kids needed a day with friends and exploring. I did too. Have a great Sunday!

Thanks guys! I'm excited about the firing time! About 6 hours! My poor old guy was doing 12 hours (full to the gills) with old elements! TKD has been wonderful for him to see that he can "do it!" His tummy had the butterflies and he made a few mistakes but he got through it and we were so proud!

The pendants are too cute! Congrats on the new-but-used kiln. My son had his very first TKD lesson this weekend and he loved it so I'm hoping he'll stick with it!
