Visiting My Grandkiddos...

3 comments:
I was able to sneak away for a week to visit my 3 beautiful grandkiddos... I so needed my 'kiddo fix'
 My daughter and I had not told the kiddos that 'Oma' (me) was coming to visit... so they were uber surprised when they saw me at the airport...
 We had a slumber party in the trailer.... I thought I was never going to get any sleep! lol!
 "Let them eat Cake"... and we did... the kiddos baked a cake,,, with a wee bit of help from Oma,, and they got as much frosting on the cake as they did on themselves! Why am I not surprised? lol!
 Little Aidieman was 'stylin' in his Frank Sinatra hat!
 Ok, so my Jada is a photo hammmm... lol!
 and Soleil is  to cute....

I sure miss my kiddos, but I'll see them again in July for my next visit...
 until then,,, I will miss them terrible and have to visit with them via Skype...

Metal Lamp Shade...

1 comment:
I spotted a rather sad looking metal lamp shade at a local Thrift... so I just had to buy it and bring it home,,, and yes, Gary's comment was,,, "Why?"... but if you know mw... you know,, I'll re-purpose anything after all,,, "spray paint is my friend!"...  lol!
So I cleaned it up, primered it and spray painted it... now I have a Cool cake cover!  
 don't you just love the red and gold? I sure do!
The top has a gazillion little holes,, flies cant get in and the cake or what ever won't sweat...
This lamp shade was very Early American in style... and now it's just cute!

It's Been a Month...

No comments:
OMG! has it been almost a month since my last post?
Where does the time go?

Well, here is a quick catch-up... I have been Junktiquing, Fooding, Friending and everything in between! lol!
I blasted down to Palm Desert to visit my mom,,, and get a little junktiquing done down in Palm Springs...

In between goofing around I have also been re-doing my sweet lil trailer (see my other blog - click on the trailer icon)...

Gary & I watched the Super Bowl game at our friends, Connie and Brad's house..
They were in orange and rootin on the Denver Broncos... and yep, we were in the blue, rootin on the Seattle Sea Hawks... and yep our team one!  heeheehee!

Gary and I went to a couple of Estate Sales to buy stuff we really didn't need, but just had to have! lol!

And now I am off again, flying up to Spokane to see my baby girl and my grand kiddos...
it's been 7 months since I last saw them... miss them mucho!

Yesterday  Connie & I headed over to the city of Clovis for lunch and a little junktiquing... and I discovered a super cute Quilt shop too!    so, like I need any more projects.. I purchased 3 patterns... now to find time to work on them!

 my mother and I have an on going competition when it comes to collecting Gnomes... this one is my latest to the collection!
 I found this sweet sewing drawer... Sorry Lois, but I am going to decoupage some cute vintage sewing pattern images on top...
 It's been a tough week for my kitties... poor babies! snork, giggle!
 
and last but not
least... I stitched up a cute little apron for Connie...
Ok, I am off,,, but I'll try not to take so long to post...
