I wish I had known about this. I am so bummed. I just went on Jen's blog to check on how art& soul went and I found your workshop listed. How did it go? Do you think she will ever come back? I am from Lapeer. Had I known about this, I would have been there. I feel so bummed to have had a class this close and missed out.
