Hail Storm!

We got home this evening from running a few errands in South Center and just as we pulled into the garage it started to Hail... HARD! Eric and I ran outside Aquaman in tow to check out the new fallen precipitation.
It was about pea sized.
And it came down hard, and is still on the ground...
But shortly after our adventures outside we came in to finish up packing for my trip, and there was some major thunder, which was really cool to hear!

I am off to bed now to get my rest before my "big gig" tomorrow.
In other news, Gracie must have appreciated the piece of string in her stocking that Santa gave her because she's being nice today and making me feel like she'll actually miss me when I go. Truth be told? I think her food dish is empty.

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!
