We celebrated Ocee’s 1st Birthday over the weekend and thought I’d share some pictures.
We had a dog themed party (he LOVES dogs) and this was his invite:

“Pup cakes” decorated with a few different dogs I illustrated:

The spread. All dog themed food lie puppy chow, bagel dogs, corn dogs, etc:

And then the digging in began. He didn’t get as messy as the Woog did on her 1st:


HAPPY BIRTHDAY OCEE!

Alaska
January 12th, 2012
I don’t do much design and layout work anymore since illustration took over but I occasionally take some on and this time it was for one of my favorite clients (my church). There’s a mission trip to Alaska coming up and I designed a buff for a ministry there. Totally different illustration style, but I loved working on it. Here’s a snippet of the design.

And speaking of Alaska, the Woog is heading up there for her first mission trip to help with the Iditarod Race (don’t worry, my husband is going with her, plus some really close friends and if I think about it too much, I might not let her go because I’ll start thinking she’ll freeze her fingers off, get lost in a blizzard, get smushed by a moose, fly in one of those little Alaskan planes even when I gave strict instructions for her not to fly in one – I’ve seen Flying Wild Alaska and all the trouble and “close” calls they supposedly have right before the commercial break…humph! ). To help her raise money for the trip, I’m putting together an art fundraiser for her in the next few weeks, so stay tuned for that. I’m thinking robot junkadoodles!
