Ready for fun!

Phew!  Ok, now that we've wrapped up the Spur 'o' Ween party and finally cleaned out the studio it is time for some fun!  The 13th marks the first day of class for our Fall Calendar and we are all very excited!

Check out the crowd at this year's Spur 'o' Ween

 

And the clean classroom!

 

Hope to see you all here soon!

Longest Summer Break, EVER!

So during this extremely long break there have been so many house changes I don't even think I would remember them all to list them here, but I tell you we had everything from dump trucks to chickens around here lately!  The biggest effect of these changes upon the studio was the transition of Julien into his own room (so that Mom would not go crazy from lack of sleep with the boys sharing a room!) resulting in Mr. Eric moving his office into class.  So ARTcadia Studio welcomes Advanced Handyman Services and says goodbye to the play-table corner.  A little sad, but hey, I'm much more rested and therefore a better person for the switch ;)  So today was spent attempting to straighten up and clear out as many dust bunnies as I could so we can be presentable by the Halloween Spur'o'Ween festivities which are a week and a half away now.  As you can see I'm not quite there yet, but hey, it's a start!
:)  Hope to see you all in November for the late fall sessions if not for Spur'o'Ween!

Merry Christmas!

Hello friends!  This Christmas was quite a refreshing change of pace from our last (which I spent in the hospital with what was thought to be an appendicitis!)  As I sit here enjoying a calm day of play with new blocks and de-kars (what Julien is calling his new guitar) I am hoping you all having having a beautiful day too!  We miss you all and hope to see you in the New Year.  Happy Holidays and wishes of overwhelming joy to you all in the New Year!

Don't forget to spread the word about our new classes including our 12 mos artists!

The Come Back is Coming!

We've been busy with our new addition! (No we aren't remodeling again)  Adrien is officially the last of the Bills family collaborative art projects, and was born right on schedule April 30th.  He has been keeping us very busy. That said, the new calendar is in the makings and we are excited about the new classes opening up for September. *spoiler alert* We are even adding a little something for our 12-24 month friends this time around! Stay tuned!

The count down is on...

I'm so sad to say that there are only two more weeks left of classes for ARTcadia Studio until we break for the summer :(  This first 10 week session has been so much fun I am really sad to see it end!  We will really miss our friends who are moving away (Eleni and Mrs. Maria) but hope to see the rest or our new friends back in September.
The count down for baby Adrien's birth is on too!  Only 4 more weeks to go until he is due to make his first appearance in the world.  Julien and I spent some time with my friend Patrick and his wife Ruth taking some maternity shots a couple weeks ago.  I highly recommend Man in the Moon Studios to anyone looking for a photographer.  Here's a couple fun ones from our shoot...

Hope everyone is staying cool and have a great weekend!

Leprechaun Hunters!

Can you believe today was the start of our 2nd 5 Weeks!  Time is flying by.  We celebrated our new students first day of class and St. Patrick's Day today to kick things off.  The 2's had a blast in Mighty Mess constructing Leprechaun Magnifiers and searching for the pesky leprechaun who's been running around my back yard.  Unfortunately they never found him, but they did a great job of finding all the gold he dropped!

 

P.s. How'd you like those decals on my car?  I'm now a rolling billboard.  Thanks to the fab ladies at SuperSigns for doing such a super job!
