Mad Potter


We went to Mad Potter Sunday with my family to paint.  You pick your pottery, paint it, and then they fire it so it is shiny and then you pick it up a week later.  Before I had Stephen, my mom and I used to come here a lot.  I love painting bowls.

Stephen chose a monster truck.

Stephen decided not to participate.  He is no fun!!!

Stephen was over the painting part about 10 minutes in, but he did find a bunch of stencils and entertained himself for quite a while bringing them to Mamaw one by one.

I wanted to make a tile with Stephens handprint.
