Friday night we got to go see Jolene’s art displayed at the famous Art A fair, an exhibit of the annual Laguna Beach Art Festival.  We are all so proud of her.  It is a really big deal to be a part of the famous Art Festival.  Maren was especially excited to go out on the town with the adults to see grandma’s art and then go to dinner with Uncle Connor, Aunty Summer, Uncle Jason, and mom & dad of course.  Grandma Jo is such an amazingly talented artist.  We enjoyed being a part of such a tremendous honor.  It was relaxing to walk around and look at art.  Maren wasn’t shy at all when it came to expressing her feelings about the paintings, sculptures, etc.  She chose some glass paintings and painted animals as her favorites!  Daddy and daughter are so much alike.  I love how full of joy and life the two of them are.  Maren and Marc both couldn’t resist dancing to the live band.  I need to take lessons from my husband and daughter on how to live in the moment and have fun!!  I absolutely loved watching the two of them together! They light up my life!

Maren couldn’t wait to give Grandma Jo a big squeeze!
