On Friday, Heidi's art teacher called and TB answered the phone. He said she sounded really excited and wanted to make sure we knew about the Heart Art competition at the high school. It's a good thing she called because we didn't! Heidi's left the invitation at school and the teacher really really hoped Heidi would show up--she'd be pleased (meaning Heidi). The teacher was sorry she wouldn't be able to make it as she had to be somewhere else.
Heidi didn't seem too excited about going. She was supposed to be at work at 5 and the program was supposed to run from 2-4. We showed up right on time. There was a reception just outside the auditorium where all the pieces of art was displayed. I was totally awed by the talent of the young people who'd made submissions. But when I got to Heidi's, I felt my jaw hit the floor. I think it's more than mother's bias-- I just knew it was a winner.
Check it out:
Unfortunately, there was glare from the plastic over the 2D art (to protect the pieces).
Heidi won "Best In Show" for the second year in a row in the 2D category. Her friend won "Best in Show" in the 3D category. ![]()
Check out TB's entry for a picture of Heidi with her artwork: The Man's Side.
I hope it's okay to show off some of the other pieces of art I admired.
Awesome, eh?
I say...and you think...

week of feb26: the olympics
The Torino 2006 Olympics are on and if you are like myself, you are addicted to watching the figure skaters.
heres a few related questions:
1. do you watch the olypmics or are you just plain sick and tired of hearing about it?
I watch
2. which event is your fav?
I enjoy many of them but my top favorites: figure skating, speed skating, and snowboarding
3. which athelete(s) do you like best?
Again, there's so many! I liked the women's skating team from the US (of course), Shaun White, Apollo Anton Ohno, and Joey Cheek.
Hmm, I left you a message this morning, but it's not showing up... Anyway, what I said was that I just LOVE Heidi's heart!
It's incredible!
Awesome, yes! I LOVE Heidi's heart! ![]()
