It’s Friday, Friday, Friday!!!!  Yeah!!!

Don’t you just love the weekend?  Even though I work from home I still love the weekends.  Especially since my darling husband, Russ works outside of the home Monday through Friday.  Let me say “Thank Goodness”, LOL.    I love my husband dearly, but if he worked from home, that would definitely be too much togetherness for me.   Sorry, I digressed there a bit.  I love the weekends because I get to spend them with Russ.  🙂

Anyway, I haven’t given away any blog candy in a few weeks.  So, how about I give away this truly stunning Stampin’ Up set “Punched Potpourri.  My favorite stamp in this set is the bird.    LOVE THAT BIRD!

If you would like to enter to win this stamp set, please leave a comment at the bottom of this post telling me to enter you.   If you are getting this blog update via e-mail, PLEASE CLICK HERE and then leave a comment.   

I will select the winner on Monday, December 13, 2010 using a random number generator.   Good Luck to all!  Remember you can’t win if you don’t enter.

Until my next post. . . .  . .

Hugs,

Michelle

This past week has been soooooo much fun!  This is my darling seven year old Grand Daughter, Hailie Jade.   She is the one person that I cannot seem to say no to, LOL.  She has ruled Russ and my life for the last week.  Thought I would show you some of the crafts we created.

How about these die cut stars.  They were made with the 5 point star die cut and the Big Shot Machine.  One of Hailie’s favorite tools to use.   They went together really fast so we made lots of them to hang on our trees.

Oh, by the way, I’m told that Justin Bieber Rules!  Justin who I said?  Hailie’s reply “Really Grandma, ughhhhh”.

We love to play games together so we whipped up these Bingo cards using the Stampin’ Up sets Bingo Card and Jolly Bingo Bits (from the Holiday Mini Catalog) and made everyone play Bingo on Thanksgiving.   The adults were so very competitive, LOL.  We covered the squares with the Large Buttons.

.

See why I cannot deny this little lady anything.  Even with the missing teeth she is a beauty!

Oh yeah, Hailie loves to play tic tac toe so we made up this Winter Themed board using the Stampin’ Up Snowflake punch, 2 1/2″ circle punch and 3″ squares of Not Quite Navy and Whisper White Card stock.  So simple and we played forever.  🙂

Well after all of the fun, I had to take her home to another state today, sniff, sniff,  but what memories we have made together.

Until my next post. . . . .

Hugs,

Michelle

The Winner of the Stampin’ Up Christmas Punch Stamp Set is. . . . . . . . . .. . .. . .Leanne Wilcox. . . .

 Here are a few photos I took yesterday while strolling around in the Monterrey/Carmel, California areas.  🙂  Toto, this definitely isn’t Ohio!

Some fishing boats just came in and the crews were clean the fish and discarding the leftovers to these characters.  This was my first time getting up close and personal with a couple of Pelicans.  They are such odd looking guys.

Ahhh, sunset in Carmel.  Love it!

Until my next post. . . . .  .

I’m having a bit of trouble today posting.  Bare with me I will have a tutorial for you as soon as possible.

You know when it rains it pours, our well pump happened to go out last night also, so while I am sitting here trying to post to my blog I’m singing  “HOW DRY I AM, HOW DRY I AM”.  You just don’t realize how much we depend on water until it isn’t there.    Good thing there is a repairman that will help us out sometime today.    Hmmm, where is that repairman anyway?  He said he would be here by 11:00 a.m.  It is now 1:15 p.m.  If you see him send him my way will ya!  I could use a shower, lol.

Hope all is going well for you today.

Hugs,

Michelle
