Tiny picture!!!!


Here it is!!! Isn't this great?!!!

A magical package!

First of all I have to follow up a little on pictures for my daughter. This morning we had a wonderful experience with a local photographer named Fox. Her business is called Celestial Images in Gainesville, GA. She was warm, fun and talented. She walked my daughter to the old courthouse in beautiful downtown Gainesville and took some incredible shots of her in her prom dress...elegant with a twist! Then she used the architecture of the old building her studio is in to take other pictures...Emily was in more casual clothes. I can not wait to see them!!!! Lessoned learned here....do your research and go local!!!! We left this experience so happy!!!!

The second wonderful thing of my day....I recieved the most fabulous...totally awesome suprise when I got home!!! A tiny little owl dropped off a tiny little package! It has one tiny hand-knit sock, tiny needles...very temperamental...will only knit socks!....beautiful stitch markers and yarn and a great pattern! I learned to owl was from Hororia Beckett!!!! It is fabulous! It topped my magical day!

I will miss you all! I had a great time with you at camp!!! Take care!

What a day!!!

I took my daughter today for Glamour Shots....not a good experience. The make-up girl seemed to could have not cared any less about the how the make-up looked. She barely did anything with my daughters hair. The whole thing seemed like such a raquet. You can't walk out of there without spending at least $200 and that is only one pose. I ended up not buying a thing....although the pictures where beautiful (my daughter is beautiful!). I would rather give my money to a local photographer than that corporate nightmare!!!

All packed up and ready to leave camp. Fall is in the air here!!!

My wonderful kit!!!!




Bernadette really went all out for this fabulous kit. Look at this bag...she put the flower appliques on....my favorite colors! It is the perfect size for smaller projects...it will be my constant companion. The yarn is scrumptuous! Soft...and once again, my favorite color...purple! It is a worsted wool by Malabrigo...Hollyhock (don't you love the name!). Also....she sent me a wonderful stamped cross-stitch runner....and don't you know I love to cross stitch as well! I also recieve 3, yes 3!, patterns....I am gonna try the mitts! And I absolutely LOVE the stitch markers! I took a close up of the set so you could see how adorable they are! My kids and I enjoyed the suckers which were charmed and they turned our tongues blood red! Funny, Bernadette! Thank you again! My kit is wonderful!
