Eva made a horse and entered it in the 3-D art division in the Reflections contest. The theme was wow and I asked her why a horse is wow (really, I said it like that) and she said, "Because they are different colors and they wear neat shoes." She used Crayola Model Magic (was introduced to the stuff at the Childrens Museum and we love it... You can color the stuff with markers so you only have to buy white and it doesn't get all crumbly like Play Doh), markers and toothpicks (she did it herself!).
Okay, see how happy she is at the beginning of the assembly. Look at her when she gets her trophy. Yes, I said trophy, not a gift certificate for a root canal or something. Still, so serious.
"One of these kids is not like the other..." Like most people holding trophies, the others kids seem pretty excited. Here, Karl is explaining how great this is. Finally, we convince her to smile.

I swear, I should have you come over and take our Christmas pics...your pics are always so cute. You're just so artistic! Sorry dinner group died. I miss it, but really--no way could I cook for a group at the moment. Nick's lucky to get cereal.
WOW! That's really cool on so many levels. I love the horse, I love Eva's personality. I love that she got a trophy!! Wow! Very cool.
Wish we lived close enough to catch presentations like this one. Thanks for capturing it on the blog. Grandma
Great job Eva. She is really artistic. I love it!
Hehehe... that is hilarious that she is the only one not smiling. Congrats on the winning though. I think the horse is cute.
Wow! Go Eva! That horse really is "wow!" She is so stylish, too. What a sweetheart.
