    She resembles Aunt Della...especially the disgruntled part. Aunt Della was my grandfather's sister...she lived to 94.

    Tell son that he did a great job.

    I'm sorry, but when I look at her the first thing that came to mind was "Fancy Pants". I guess by the way she stands w/hands on her hips and all. It is very cute and your son did a great job.

However, she is getting married and moving to Odessa in September, so she's taking the welder with her since her new husband is interested in welding. We may have to look for a welder for him. He was laid off from his job and hasn't been able to find one with good benefits. His wife is diabetic and he has 2 girls in college. He is very talented and has a lot of applications in, but you know how the economy is right now. Hope he finds something soon. Meantime, he's working odd jobs, installing cabinets, putting in tile, building fences, plumbing and electrical work.
    If your son took a few to a LQS, I'm fairly sure that they would buy them...
