Sunday, Sunday

Well, it is Sunday. My man is getting back today from a motorcycle ride he went on with a bunch of his buddies. I missed him alot, but have to admit it is nice sometimes to have the house to myself and watch all the chick flicks.

Had a nice weekend. Friday I received my giveaway package from Cupcake DD!! How fun! So after that great start, I eent to see my oldest grandaughter do her cheers after her cheerleading camp she went to. she was so cute!! She is 7 and the highschool cheerleaders put on a little camp for the younger girls. She just had a blast!
Then I went out to eat mexican food with my daughter and son in law and their kids.
Friday nite my daughter and I and the oldest grandaughter got burgers and fries and got all the craft stuff out and played for most of the evening.

Saturday morning we went garage saleing.
Didn't find much. got an old record album book full of old albums. So I am intending on altering it. I have alway wanted to alter one of those. So I am excited about finding that! And I got an old Edgar Alan Poe book. I'm not really into his stuff but it was too good to pass up and I'll find something to do with it!!

And I watched 6 chick flicks!! Yes, 6!!


But now I am ready to see my man!!

Beautiful,Beautiful Screen Pages From Karla & Beth's Vintage Birds & Bonnets Swap!!

Wow! I am so happy to have received my screen from Karla & Beth's Birds & Bonnets Swap!! The pages are sooooooo pretty! What an awesome job these girls did! And I couldn't believe how fast Karla & Beth got them mailed out!! They did such a beautiful job of selecting which ones to put with which and putting them all together!! This was really such a fun swap and the first of this type for me.


















We went to a wedding reception for our friends who got married at Viva Las Vegas. Ok, so the reception was rockabilly themed to go along with the VLV wedding theme. So, since our dresses for the wedding and trim on the guys jackets were leopard, and the reception was done in red,white and leopard, (which by the way was just so much fun!), I just had to wrap the presents to match.

I was really happy with the way they turned out.

Oh my gosh! I also won a giveaway from Cupcake DD !! http://cupcakedd.blogspot.com/. What an adorable giveaway prize it is too! She participated in the Cottage Charm Giveaway that Kim from the Twice Remembered Cottage http://owcl.blogspot.com/ hosted. I am so glad to have found all the great blogs and shops that I discovered thru this! I spent WAY too much time visitiing blogs and shops in the last week!! Oh well, gotta do what ya gotta do, right!?
