Art Month!

Maygen's show was a success (It was Scott's show as well, but since I don't know him well I'm going to focus on Maygen).  These buoys are not made of rubber but of clay.  Can you believe it?

The kids ran around the museum and enjoyed themselves whole heartedly while the adults ate and drank and conversed over the unveiled pieces.  It was a lovely time.

We all are very proud of you Maygen!
Meanwhile Falcom is getting ready for his shows.  He is trying out for Jubilee with an Elton John song and so we went on a costume hunt.  With new boots and this pimping jacket he has really been making a splash around town.  Unfortunately, he still does not understand that there is a time and a place for all things and that school is not the best place for this look.  We are working on it.

After the show we all went out to Land's End for a celebratory snack and drink.  It was another unseasonably warm and wonderful night filled with laughs. 


Saturday night we had a bar-b-que with Maygen and Iris at her house with her mother Susan who is wonderful and who was in town for the show.  Beezer and Piper were able to come as were Willie and Kaylene.  I don't know why I don't have a picture to accompany this evening except to say that I laughed the whole time.  This would be because I felt like I had walked in on a big East Indian Family highly chaperoned dating ritual...but this is another story that I do not have permission to retell in this blog.

After Church on Sunday we headed out to the harbor for the Wedding Reception of our dearly beloved friends Wendy T. and Mike M.  On their surf boat MV Milo we gathered to warmly welcome these two into the next phase of their shared lives together. 

That morning they had gone out onto the bay and exchanged vows.  Now was time to party.  On the deck of the vessel is a hot tub and they used that as a buffet table.  Mike then strapped down his first surfboard and used it as the cake table.  The sun was shining and the gulls were flying around and it was fabulous to feel so much included in what it means to be from Homer.



We are very happy for you Wendy and Mike! 

Maygen and Susan made dinner for us that evening-a wonderful bar-b-qued chicken.  They were concerned we would be too full from the wedding;  but, this is the Greear Family we are talking about!  All of us were so exhausted from the weekend that we were plopping down on the furniture and unmotivated to play games or go for a walk.  Iris didn't even try to jump up from the dinner table. 

This week begins the artistic week of singing!  I'll keep you posted!
