Touch of the Masters hand

Every minute dad can find he will go to his office and work on his paintings. He is now painting my grandma Cook's home in Cedar Valley. It is awesome, it looks just like it. I love it when dad paints. I have always wanted him to share this talent because I felt like he was hiding his talent under a bushel all these years. I remember when I was a cheerleader at good old A.F. High and we ask him to paint for us a big caveman on wood so we could use it for pep assemblies and games. It was about 8 ft high and we used it all year. The funny thing is they ended up using that caveman for years. It wasn't long ago when someone told me that the Caveman he made was still in the basement at the high school. Well that was about the last thing he painted until now. He is very gifted and I think we have many great paintings yet to come

Wow, Mom you are really picking up this blogging thing. It took me forever and ever to figure it out, and I still don't know how to do what you are doing. But it is awesome! See you have a lot of things to talk about! I can't wait to see the swimming party.
