Girl's Day Out

The first Friday in October a couple friends of mine and I went and had a fun day in Lancaster City.  It was so nice to get out and have a little break from the kids and be able to talk to each other without getting interrupted by little ones every 5 seconds :)  We first went to Pottery Works and laughed and talked while painting some pottery.  I had a coupon for Pottery Works so I decided to paint two items.  This first is a plate for Birthday's or other special occasions for the kids:

I remember my mom having a "you are Special" plate that I always loved eating off of on my Birthday, the kids love this too and can't wait until it's THEIR special day :)
My friend Ronda painted herself a honeypot:

and Sheila painting a really pretty vase:

This was my second project, and it was all for me this time:

A travel mug.  It's machine washable and microwavable as well!

you can't really see it well but it says, "let it snow!" :)  I had to free hand the snowflakes and I think they turned out pretty good.

After we were done painting we walked around Central Market and looked at things.  It didn't take long because it's a fairly small market, it is still interesting though!  After that we went to eat lunch and then headed home.  It was a very fun day and we're hoping to do it more often :)
