I've always wanted to do it, so I did it. #2 { GLASS BLOWING }

For my birthday this year, I shamelessly told Janelle what she should give me for my birthday. It was a win-win for her cause she hates to get deadline presents and she got to come with me for this gift! I saw a Groupon for Glass blowing class.  I'm weird, I know.  But I still remember when I was 11, I went to visit my aunt up in Oregon and one of our many fabulous stops along the Oregon Coast was a little glass blowing shop. I was fascinated with watching these men heat up the glass, blow it out and make cool creations.  So, since this visit 17 years ago, I've always wanted to give it a try.

Our teacher, Robert, was great! He had this awkwardly contagious laugh that had me smiling the whole time. 

It was a blast!
