Crazy Year!!

My little girl turned 1 today!! It has been a wild ride. Especially since this has been by far my busiest year for puppet work. Between building puppets, puppeteering, teaching classes, and taking care of my little lady I can't believe I had time to sleep. Oh yeah, most of the time I didn't.

However, I wouldn't pass up this wonderful time for anything. Happy Birthday Roxie!!!

P.S. There is still time to sign up for my next puppeteering class at the Puppet Showplace. Do it now before it fills up. http://puppetshowplace.org/index.php?page=adult-workshops

Love is in the air!

Spike looked lonely. So, I built him a girlfriend!
