My sister Lisa, Mom, and I all took a pottery class for the past couple of months. Once a week we would go up to campus and for 3 hours we would talk and laugh and maybe make something once in awhile...:) I was a little apprehensive because I took a ceramics class (basically the same class) my freshman year and I was horrible at it. I don't know why, but I couldn't do a single thing in that class that didn't look like a 5 year old had done it. But this class was much better! I made a swan that I never quite finished because it kept disappearing (I'll have to go back there today or tomorrow to look for it one last time...), a flower pot that Lisa kept calling a diaper pail, and some pots that I threw on the wheel! When I took ceramics last time I was never able to successfully throw a pot on the wheel. I didn't even want to try this time, but my mom got me to do it and I did! I was very proud of myself. Here's a picture of my flower pot. I think it turned out pretty well!
I don't have pictures of my pots, so I might add those later. I'm glad I had this class because I was getting bored just staying at home and going to work. It was fun having class with Lisa and my mom and being able to develop what little talents I have!

That pot is awesome. You'll have to post another picture of it after you get a plant in it. And don't worry. Your little swan will show up.
