We went to the big fundraiser for Lloyd’s school tonight. It’s a big affair, with lots of things at the silent auction, and a good amount of things for the live auction. The food was good, we didn’t win anything, and were home by 10:15. All in all, a good night. I’m tired, so I won’t write much.
Of course, being Easily Distracted Girl I lost interest about half an hour before it was over. I took these Art Shots to entertain myself, and now, they can distract you.
Brad says
You came back from an auction empty handed? What happened to Lloyd the Auction King?
Lloyd says
I was about to go bid on stuff when they had a problem with the projectors. I had to rip my shirt off, fly over there and defeat the evil that was attempting to thwart the gala.
Cousin Sam says
You said gala heehee
Beth says
Did Curt win anything? What about big Lloyd and Jane?
Kristi says
Honestly, since Cousin Sam is such an artist, I was expecting some big piece of something from Lloyd that would be auctioned. Are you not related? I have no idea what the item would be; perhaps someone can come up with it.
Lloyd says
We auctioned off a website created by Lincoln Lutheran’s Website Design Class. It didn’t bring bring as much as Sam’s cross. I attribute this mostly to the fact that it was (a) not made by Sam, (b) in no way depicted any sort of diety, (c) wasn’t described particularly well, (d) anyone who needs a website probably has one and (e) who wants a website from a class?
Cousin Sam says
As it turn out I know someone who needs a website. He is a potter trying to get some web presents. I will introduce you to him at LEA.
Cousin Sam says
Presence? His name is Jim.
Lloyd says
Well that’s his problem right there. Who ever heard of a artist named Jim?
Cousin Sam says
May I remind you of a famous man by the name of Jimmy Dean. Skinny people is so dumb.
Lauren says
Aunt Jane says, “Hi” and she wants you to know that she likes your cross.
Lloyd says, “Who you callin’ skinny?”
Brad says
I don’t know if sausage counts as art.
Cousin Sam says
That’s just east coast snobery, someone needs to remember his Knoxville, TN roots.
Karla says
That cheesecake looks really yummy! 🙂 Ummm-mmmm.
Annette says
I bid a hundred once at a benefit auction. I thought it was the right thing to do to get the bidding started. Yeah, I have a Pheasants Forever print now. So much for doing the right thing! Do I hear one-twentyfive???
Peggy says
Next year you should auction these artsy black & whites … especially the foot. You could title it something clever like, “The Foot.”
Lauren says
Lloyd tells me that I am remiss in not saying that it is Curt’s foot. Doesn’t he have a nice foot?
Karla says
That’s Curt’s foot?! He could be a foot model!
Curt says
Actually I used to be a shoe model. You can see some of my work in catalogs such as Sears, JC Penney’s, and many more. I noticed they cropped my leg and the top of my foot out of the pictures. Hmmmm…
Curt says
Alternate Story: Actually I used to be a shoe model until they realized they could take a picture of a shoe without a foot in it.
Curt says
Alternate Story: Actually I used to be a shoe model until a horrific shoe horn accident. My feet were never the same. (Sniff.)
Lauren says
I heard about that in the news.
