Finally- our first big art display.. The kids (and us) have been working so hard to prepare and frame all of these magnificent "works of heart" . We displayed over 35 art pieces at "Pets Wear Prada" an event put on to benefit animals and to promote autism awareness. Along with our art display- there was a great fashion show on the runway filled with people and pets!!! For a quick moment I thought one woman was going to lose her cat... I could just imagine this cat getting loose among all of the people in the tent... I got quite a chuckle out of that- plus it probably wasn't helping the cat's nerves to have me flashing that camera like the paparazzi!!
We had some very special and beautiful models and the art display turned out better than I even imagined- Just to see all of the easels set out and to know how much went into those paintings- I was overwhelmed to say the least. It is hard for me to let some of them go- each one has a story (just ask- we'll share!!) it is so hard to set a price tag on them- Like the mastercard commercial- they are PRICELESS.
A special thank you to Heather, Jean, and Amy for all of their hard work!! We couldn't have done it without you!! and to my "bible study girls"- thanks for being the most supporting and incredible group of friends- you made the evening special- and next year you guys are in charge- "Furry Couture"- here we come- (Amelia Island will never be the same)
