Adventures of Paul and Cheri: OKTOBERFEST, Sugar Mountain, NC

Ruthie came and took a photo of us on a very rainy, cold morning. Brave of her to get out in the mess. Braver yet were we ... staying out in it for the day!!!!!

Our biz ... Clay for all the clay work that Shannon does, zaics for the mosaic work I try to do. We just stuck them together and came up with that! Clever women that we are ..... haha!

This was our very colorful booth. A friend of ours, Gaye Meade makes purses so we displayed some of her things as well. It was fun on Sunday because the sun came out! YEAH!!!

We had a visitor in a bat hat all the way from Atlanta ... and although that looks like Crocodile Dundee, it's really Paul with Christian. A busy day ... Christian tried to play on the slides and bouncy toys, but it was so cold even he had to go home, get a hot bath and sit by the fire! Nothing like October in the mountains for unpredictable life. It's going to snow this weekend, just in time for the Wooly Worm Festival. SOSOSOSO glad we aren't going to be vendors in that one!

Brandy (l) and Shannon messing around. Brandy is the message therapist who had the booth next to us. We all had a wonderful weekend ... perfect neighbors! Brandy sells some amazing bath soaps and herbs for bath therapies that she hand makes. Very talented lady. Will post her website as soon as I find her card!

This is one of Shannon's hand sculpted mushrooms for plants. Her stuff always has such a fabulous personality of their very own. $20 if you're interested.

Some hand sculpted clay faces by Shannon Fannon. '09 She has some absolutely amazing talent. Again, $20 if you're interested.

Our booth! Day one

These two are absolute trouble together .... Frick and Frack!

This is a mirror I did for Jen and family ... still has to have the cross put in the top center and it'll be finished at long last.

Beautiful Jen & precious Christian. We were calling Christian "Joseph and the coat of many colors" ... but we certainly didn't have to look too hard for him!
