Fresh Eggs Are So Neighborly!

I looove having chickens, but I haven't had

any for years now. I love watching and listening

to them cluck and busy themselves about their

coop! It's somewhat of a wholesome feeling

having them around...Nothing more satisfying

than checking a hen's nest and finding their

sweet present of an egg waiting for you!!!

I've missed this.

...and then Friday when I got 

home from work, a neighbor was over

visiting with McGiver and pretty soon

his wife came over with a dozen 

beautiful eggs, from their hens!

I opened up the carton

and 

found

these

 beauty's! 

~the dark brown ones are speckled~

~simply beautiful~

She asked if we'd ever had duck eggs before...

We hadn't,

so she went home and

brought us this guy...

WooHoo!

~hard to tell here how big it is~

~it's huge~

~isn't it fantastic~

~they're so perfect they almost look fake~

~gorgeous~

                                                                                 

~anyone hungry for an omelet~

I've had this adorable little egg basket for

awhile now, and hadn't

quite been able

to pull out

the ole

plain

white

grocery

store

eggs

to

fill

it...

However for these eggs,

it was a different

story!

Don't you agree?!

She has green eggs too,

she told me when I

return the carton

she'll fill it up

again...

How fun!

I may invite you

over for some

GREEN EGGS and HAM!

Thanks so much for visiting my blog!

Bridal Shower Place Cards!

A co-worker of mine is getting married,

and all of us gals at work are soooo

excited for her!

She lost her husband

a few years ago and we've all been

secretly hoping she'd meet someone,

 fall in love and live 

happily

ever after! 

Well it happened, and we couldn't

be happier for her!

They're going on a cruise for their

 honeymoon,

(during our Winter Christmas Vacation)...

and she just told us they're getting

married November 12th.!!!

So us girls want to send her off on

her honeymoon with some sexy lingerie 

cute girlie jamies!!!

I'm going to have a personal shower for

her the week before they get married!!!

How fun is that!?!

I've been working on the place cards,

Let me show you what I have so far!

A little glitter 

and their names

& they're done!

Cute shape and the price was right

from the Dollar Tree!

~add a few bubbles~

 ~some mints~

~Perfect little gift hidden away~

~close it up~

Now the fun begins!

~add a little veil to the back~

~a little embossed wallpaper, ribbon & beads

to the front~

~adorable little place cards~

~Oh and of course, every princess needs a crown~

~Sweet 'Heart' measuring spoons~

I found these adorable measuring spoons online

and ordered one for all the 

'Bridal Party Participants'

as party favors.

This is where I need your help

Blogger friends!

Should I make party bags

and add more gifty's

and if so,

any fabulous idea's

on what I could add?

My Vintage Look Halloween Drawings!

I realized today that I haven't taken any new

pictures in awhile...We spent last weekend

on San Juan Island, one of the most beautiful places

on earth... and sadly the camera stayed in

the car all weekend...

There were animals all around us, the beauty

of the island itself and still not one picture...

I think what happened, it had been so

long since we had been there, we were just

engrossed in spending time with Pat & David!

McGiver did get out quite a bit taking long 

walks with Sportz our dog.

So believe me when I say, all the raccoon babies

were adorable...peering in through the back door.

Or marauding through the garden when they saw

David giving apples to all the deer. The beautiful

fox that was almost a chocolate color with a puffy

white tipped tail...curled up waiting for a meal from

his human host! How the red fox would lay curled

up on the picnic table knowing it was just the right

spot to have the warm sun beam find her...

The island is full of beauty,
where ever you look! 

Wildlife,

flowers

 and

wonderful
family friendships...

~*~

I found these while scouring
my files looking for something
to share with you...
I drew them last year.

They were for cards I'd hoped to make...

Other than  having my jewelry business name on them,

 they're perfect for today!

~Scary button teeth~

~pumpkin boy~

I'm was just playing around and really have

a lot to learn, but it sure was fun!

Beach Living Inspiration at it's Best!

Hi there, sorry I've been missing in action lately!

Getting back in the work mode has proved to

be a little tough and then, right on schedule I

caught a cold from my little guys...ECK!

Anyhoo...

I thought I'd bring you some

beautiful inspiration from a home of

a person you may know from TV land

(or the movies...)

I love when I stumble

upon a beautiful home of a star and

realize that we're not at all

that

different...

Here are some pictures of

Whoopi Goldberg's
