Making Friends

I don’t know that I’ve mentioned this, but meeting friends out here is kind of difficult.

I don’t mean that I don’t have ANY friends, but most of my friends out here, are one’s I’ve met through Eric and friends that I carried over from South Dakota. Not that these friends are bad in any sense of the word, but it's always good to have a lot of friends.

The past month I’ve been hanging out with a new friendand its fun to have someone to go to the mall with, hang out at home and watch girly movies in our sweats with, drink Tea and eat brownies with.

Mariya is a massage therapist who lives within a few miles from our house. She is getting married to the love of her life NEXT WEEK! We’ve been doing a lot of wedding planning together!
Have I mentioned that she too is a scrapbooker? DANGER! And we both have Canon’s that we’re learning to use.
I’m excited about our new friendship!

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off.  This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it!  I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

Merry Craftmas!!

When I was little Mom had one of these to put out every Christmas. I remember her tossing it out having fixed its hot glue after every warm summer in the shed, she wasn't particularly attached to it but I was. Having collected enough baby food jars (finally) I put it together this weekend! Looks just like I remember it and now it is sitting in my closet awaiting its debut next weekend!
