Thank you all for the well wishes and birthday shenanigans over this past week. Yinz really know how to make a big old dumby like me feel the love. 37 was something, but we made it through and here’s to 38 years old!

If you’d like, share your favorite memory or photo with me/of me below so we can all reminisce on getting fucking old!

We took a family trip to Pittsburgh to see Mike’s sister, Kristin, get married this weekend! Emory was a champ in what was a challenging travel schedule, and the wedding was amazing. So many awesome people, and far too little time.

Congrats @kristingoddard and @half.full_glass ! ❤️

Building construction is complete but now our techs are hard at work installing, fabricating, and upgrading equipment to put the finishing touches on our new studio spaces. Studio Manager Will Haynes and Director of Operations Chris Clarke unloaded these annealers and reheating chambers that will outfit our new third floor hot shop, slated to open mid summer. The additional hot shop will help PGC serve the professional artists who use our studios to produce their artwork as well as help us accommodate more classes for students eager to learn glass. #shatteringexpectations

What a great week @emporiastate @esuglassguild with the main man @half.full_glass
Thank you @kalestewart for putting it al together!
Such a breath of fresh air to blow glass with you, the community, and the students there. Met some great people and got to catch up with some great friends too. Always heard about this blowout so I’m so thankful I got to experience one. Excited to get back out to Kansas again!
