I've been playing with
Fancy Pants goodies to make a little something for Christine and
Justin's new "baby to be". It wont be long now.
I used the "Little Sprout" line, some Fancy Pants Chipboard letting , a round paper
mache container and four wood balls for feet. ( I'm on a
weird kick with that for some reason)
lol
As if I
didn't love pom pom trim enough already.. they had to come up with this mini pom pom trim to really push me over the edge.
lol So CUTE!

I know the contains in each of my posts lately.. have just been so "random"..but it's probably just
reflective of how my days have been lately.
lol Seems like I'm just bouncing from one thing to another. Lots going on this week. My sis and brother-in-law are back for a visit, so we will be spending the next couple of evenings with them. Then Saturday my nephew Chris and his Fiance Danni are getting married. We have all kinds of fun family stuff going on this week. Yay!
------------------------
I have to tell you about the strange thing that happened today.
I ran to the post office to mail some projects out ,and the weirdest thing happened. Now.. remember I live in a small town. The people at the post office are most certainly used to seeing me in there mailing projects .. so through conversations about what the heck I'm mailing all the time.. they now know that I "Craft". lol We'll it's been a while since I've been in there since I've been travling ... probably a few weeks. When I walked in .. the postmaster ( a woman).. says... "Oh Vicki I was just thinking of you and was wanting to catch you sometime when you came in to see if , by any chance ..this might belong to you". She holds out a little plastic bag.. and inside is this bracelet.
I looked at it and said, "Where the heck did you find that?".
She said.. "so we were cleaning this counter top here by the register.. and when we pulled the register out .. it was down behind here". ( and she pointed way down behind the workspace counter where the register was)
Okay.. the weird thing about this is ... First of all, I never missed it, Second of all, I made this for a project back when I was on the Design Team for Scrapbook Answers Magazine... Which was a LONG time ago! {YEARS ago} Third .. It was published in the magazine,.. which means they sent it back to me. ( I never open my boxes at the post office). I am baffled. I have no idea how it got there.
Oh well.. glad to have it back. lol

I made this
bracelet out of wood pieces from
Lauras Crafts. I drilled holes through them.. covered them with pattered papers ,
rubons and them coated them with Diamond Glaze. After they where dry... I put it together with some beads
in between, using elastic nylon string.
Weird .

Thought I'd share some photos Wes sent me from last weekend at the cabin. It was Kates Birthday, so they all had a little party out there. I missed out because I was still in Tulsa.
Below .. Wes and his friend from College ..Griff... driving Jarads dune buggy.

This week , I also spent one day with an old friend. When our kids where babies, we practically raised them together. Kids are grown now, our lives have changed, but some friendships just weather is all. And this is one of them. It was great getting to spend the day with her.
She and her husband have a great place out in the country and have lots of animals.

fun place

Our dogs have never been around other animals like this. I could almost laugh
out lout ..thinking how they would react. They would be FREAKED! Their dogs were so used to it, they just
did their own thing and ignored it all.
lol
Bella.
Aren't her colors gorgeous?

Thanks Sal! It was great getting together. I've missed ya girl.
