Exchange photo..




I recieved this cute LK pillow from Laura for our LK Exchange. It's too cute and I love halloween; it's my favorite holiday. I haven't been stitching much; I do want to get going on my Birds of a Feather I just saw part 3 and it's soooo cute; I am stitching this to enter in the Colorado State Fair this year so I best get busy..

Until a few nights ago; I'd never had a smores. Me and Kenny were watching TV and saw a commercial about them and I'd mentioned I'd never had one and he got the stuff and made me one. (we have a gas stove) LOL. It was very good; but a little too sweet for me. Sorry such a short post I worked today and a double yesterday and I'm so tired. I think I'm going to go to bed.

A little stitchin & other stuff..:)





I had a busy weekend; after work on Saturday me & Kenny went to my girlfriend from works birthday party, we had a lot of fun, then I worked Sunday and we were swamped; which is a good thing. Yesterday I didn't do anything at all except I watched some t.v. and stitched on Birds of a Feather SAL. I did make a macaroni salad and Kenny made some hamburgers for supper; that was really good.

Today I had to go to Joann's for some material; do you think that out of the prob 5000 bolts of material they had 1 with strawberries??? They had: watermelon, cherries, corn on the cob and mushrooms; I couldn't believe they didn't have anything with strawberries. It was fun to watch Kenny help me pick out some material and I did end up with the one he picked out. LOL Then we went and watched the new Transformer movie; it was very good; great 3-D effects, then we went to Walmart and got some groceries and came on home. We bought a sub from Walmart and had that with some macaroni salad for dinner.

Here's some pictures from the party and of my Birds of a Feather; sorry for the wrinkles; LOL I have to get busy; I stitched some more on it tonight and have 2 red flowers left on the bottom then I can start on part 2. I feel that "urge to splurge" on some stash creeping up on me. LOL I'll probabley order some Thursday or Friday. :)

I need help finding a pattern please...


Kenny's mom loves dolphins so I thought it'd be nice to stitch her up a Christmas Ornament with a dolphin. Does anyone have one they'd like to share? Not much else going on; going to mail out my LK exchange tomorrow; I should have mailed it yesterday but I had those 3 teeth pulled Tuesday and haven't been stitching. I know once my gums heal I'll feel better.

I'm making BBQ chicken in the crock pot for supper; it smells great in here :) I hope everyone is able to stay cool. Here's a picture of Scarlett; she's teething and Ashley says she chews on everything. LOL I sure miss her..

TULSA


Sorry I'm a few days late in posting my TULSA. I've had a tooth ache for over a week and went in today to get it pulled and she (dentist) decided that since I was already there she wanted to pull the other 2 wisdom teeth I would need pulled. :( so, needless to say my mouth is killing me. I just want to post this and lay down; I have been stitching a very cute LK design for an exchange I'm in; I'll post pictures when I am able to.

Hope everyone had a safe and happy 4th. I'll post more later.

Happy Wednesday...




Hi, hope everyone is keeping cool; it was 104 here today; and thats WAYYYY TOOO HOT!!! I HATE being hot. Hopefully fall will hurry and get here. lol I went to the grocery store and found the Just Cross Stitch Xmas Orn. preview; I had to get it. There's a few in there I want to stitch.

I only worked a few hours; my tooth is killing me; I was able to get an appt. to get into see my dentist tomorrow @3:00. I'll prob just have her pull it; it's a back molar and I just can't afford $800 for a root canal. I just want it to stop hurting. It's not as bad now; I took some Vics my Dr. prescribed me for my knee. Here is a picture of Kenny; I caught him lying on the couch; these are just a few of the stuffed animals he's won me; he loves to win me stuffed animals at fairs, etc. I have 29 at last count. He won me a 3ft. bear at the Colorado State Fair a few years ago that holds a heart that says "I love you". It's my favorite. :)

Kenny told me he has a "surprise" fo me Friday; I HATE when he does that; it drives me crazy not knowing; my oldest daughter Heather knows about it; she texted me today and was teasing me that she knew what it is but won't tell me. Were going out with some friends on Friday night; but I guess this "surprise" I'll get when I get home from work Friday. I'll be sure to let you all know. :)

Look at what I made. :)I






I finished my little gift for my mom; I swear I'll get better at finishing; it just takes practice I guess; what I'd give to be as talented at finished as Becky and Vonna :) Maybe someday I'll get close. LOL The one with the flag is for my mom and the smaller one is for me; I put cute flag material in moms and watermelon in mine; I guess I should have taken pics of the inside. :)

Here's a picture of my baby "Rowdy" before his haircut and after. :) I like him all fuzzy but with the heat being as bad as it has been; I know he's happier shaved. Not much else going on; I'm off work today and going to wash clothes and work on my Birds of a Feather boarder; I have about 1/2 of it done maybe a little more and want to start part 2 before part 3 comes out. LOL

I also have to stitch my LK exchange gift; I have it picked out and it's gonna be so cute; I can't wait to show you all. Hope everyone has a great day and can stay cool.
