How fabulous-but-
what does that mean?!
Ask Gaia;
the knower of all-knowing,
the keeper of totally random facts,
THE Gaia.
A few weeks ago, she mentioned that a local restaurant in Warrenton had FINALLY begun to continue their renovations after months and months of inactivity. She said that it was the Year of the Golden Pig and it was so monumental that HAD to explain why things had started moving.
The Year of the Golden Pig defined(according to Gaia) meant any babies born, businesses begun, marriages-anything would be more prosperous, more blessed, more! more! more! than any other year...period. Now she did elaborate, and, for bloggers sake this is a short version. But, coming from her, it did sound golden.
When she came to spend the weekend with us 2 weeks ago I knew we had to commemorate the day accordingly and we went to Just Claying Around. Gaia had never painted pottery before, this was a REALLY big deal and at first she was very unsure about what she could do-the only rule I had for everyone was that a pig had to be somewhere on their pottery!
Mom and I picked piggy banks (couldn't hurt!)
Preston picked a trivet.
Dollie picked a tile with a piggy and kitten add-on, and, a shoe shaped phone holder.
Ben picked a pirate and VW Bug bank that he painted with black stripes.
What you see next...we had a Golden Pig kind of day.
Mom said she had the time of her life!
Which convinced me, more than Yeng Chen rebuilding, that the Year of the Golden Pig had indeed begun.
hugs and love all!
