Hi! I've enjoyed "lurking" here and thought I'd say "hi!". I'm Leigh-Ann Cascio's mom - Julie. I love the snowman (snowmen?) ornaments! Have a great Tuesday!

Liz Folds said...

Mere-I love the ornaments and flat canvas especially when put in the wreath. You are going to break my bank! I am so proud of you!
I can't wait to see what you are doing for Amelia and family!

I love you all!

Can I just say CREATIVE! It really is sad how many times I read your blog and I never comment! But let me just say I have really enjoyed "learning" from your blog! You've given me all kinds of great mommy ideas to hold on to for when Amelia get older! I hope we can all get together sometime! Have a great day...and happy blogging!

Hi, Mere.........
I am so impressed with your talents! The canvases and ornaments are adorable, and who would NOT want to have one. I am so proud of you!!!! You are one amazing person, and I get to be your MOM. Love, Mom

Jessica said...

Yea, I stalked you every so often... I call Meredith Davis a friend and saw your blog off of hers... Anyways, LOVE the all the painting you've been doing!!

Emily said...

Hey Mama Mere! You have been my blogging inspiration. Since we have a sweet one on the way, it's so much easier for me to blog vs. call or email everyone. I get a double dose of the Price Family. I can read your entries at work but can't see any of the great pictures so I have to check back at home to fill in all the red x's.

Count me in! I am loving the new ornaments and the rudolph painting!!

Christi Johnson said...

You are doing fantastic on all this creative stuff. I loved the acorn idea for school. I may have to steal that one. I think my mom-n-law and mom would love one of these with all the grandkids on it. Any ideas? I'll get it for them for Christmas. Keep up the good work....Christi :)

Yep...I lurk on my own wife's blog pretty much every day. She is such a great writer and photographer that I really look forward to her next post.

I am so happy that she has found such a fun outlet for her creative spirit!!! I honestly haven't seen her this excited in a while!

Love your work, babe!

your other half (or maybe tenth if we are talking about painting ability, creative talent or just overall goodness...ok, even a tenth is a bit of a stretch :) )

Meredith said...

Hey Mere! You know I try to comment a lot, but have been super busy lately. Not doing anything near as fun as what you have been up to! :) The ornaments are adorable! Hadn't seen those yet. I've been one of your biggest fans since I met ya! You always inspire. Call soon so we can catch up.

PS-I love Jeffrey's comment. :)

Kari Wright said...

I must say...all your paintings are adorable, BUT I am IN LOVE with the personalized ornaments! HOW CUTE?!?! I NEED ONE! You are definatley creative (like another Meredith we both know) and I think the possibilities with your paintings are endless....

Hi. I am a frequent lurker on your blog and I wanted to drop in so I can enter your contest. I have been reading your blog since the beginning and your wit and loving words about your family inspired me to begin my own blog. Although I am not as thrilling as you, I must say that your blog is the best one out there. It rocks. This blog is top notch. You should be famous. Your painting talents are beyond fabulous. I suggest you do a martini glass, a kiss the cook sign, a cupcake birthday sign, a Valentine sign, etc. Don't feel like you have too, but these are only suggestions from me, a lurker on your blog. Aside from the paints, your kids are wonderful. I like all the pictures you post and the silly antics of your girls. Again, just a lurker who likes your entertainment. I wish you luck on your blog and I hope all the other lurkers will come to the surface and give you a shout out. Word.

hi meredith-i read your blog regularly...you do a great job...i love all the pics you post of your adorable girls...my last (only) post was way back when you started and were moving to dc...btw, i grew up rachel alexander-i was cracking up about the pudgy comment recently-but then there were a few of us at fb who love some popcorn and jelly bellies and ice cream and whatnot...well, just wanted to say your art is great...i am so impressed you make time for such creativity...the painting blog is lovely as well...may God bless you in your efforts to use you talents to make others happy and serve your family

Hey, Mere!
It is true, I am a lurker and never, ever leave comments. But, I love reading what is going on with the Price family. Makes me feel like y'all are not so far from us. Love the snowman ornaments and I must add those to my already large tab of painted items. :) Good luck with the new business. Love ya!

Cavers said...

Hey Mere,

I wish I had just an ounce of your artistic ability. You are SSOOOOO talented! I love everything and would like one of everything. We miss you guys and hopefully can get together soon. Also, wisteria lane has resurfaced a bit.....never a dull moment!!!!

Unknown said...

Hi Meredith,
Amy T. sent me your blog and I've enjoyed reading it this week. Your kkids are so precious and your art work is fabulous! I love reading all of my friend's blogs and blogs in general, so I'm so excited that I have another one to read! I'll have to see if there is anyone in my group that needs a painted Christmas present this year and order something from you. I was sad to hear you guys left LR... as you may know, I'm from there. I hope to see you in Dallas sometime when you are visiting Amy and CJT. ~ Alice S.

Jill said...

Hi Meredith! I am Jill (Meredith Eisele's friend). We have met a couple of times at birthday parties.
I love reading your blod. I admire your courage for moving away and making the best of it. I have lived in the same place my entire life and sometimes wonder what it would be like to live somewhere else. So I enjoy following your journey.
Your girls are growing so fast. I have 2 girls as well, Halle 6 and Kennadi 2. I also blog. I have mine private, but would love to invite you if you are interested. Just email me green_jill@yahoo.com.
I also love your paintings. I wish I had your artistic abilities.

Hi Meredith! I "lurked" onto your blog from Nora's blog! I have a blog but haven't updated it in months (have to get on that someday!:)!)Long time no see but hope Sarah Katherine's "Paint me Happy" party works out in S'port. Count me in if it does - your stuff is amazing -you are very talented. Have you thought about a "First Xmas" ornament for boy or girl? I'll be needing one this Xmas for my little girl...just a thought! Love the girl monkey sign too and the reindeer feet/hand prints....so many to choose from! Love it all and hope to see you soon at a PMH party! love, Jennifer (Rodman) DeFatta (Loyola '95)
