Thank you everyone for leaving me such great comments! I am sure we will have another

Finally the give away!!!!

Here it is! I promised you I would have the give away photo and details today and though it is tonight it is still really today!!!
Isn't it?LOL
Okay, for something fun I have included bubbles! They are so fun and relaxing! I know it sounds crazy, but I love to blow bubbles when I am stressed! Lilli loves bubbles and Gayle just laughs so hard when she blows them with us! I have also included one of my most favorite things to make! It is a Dotee doll! She is green and white! I have handmade her and added each little bead on the four leaf clovers and she has beaded hair, tail, and hanger! This little doll will warm your heart and make you smile! Finally, just for Sharon
I am including chocolate! Sharon is the queen of give aways and so I have to honor her with the chocolate! Especially since I am doing a Sharon the love give away! Thank you Sharon for always being so kind and sharing!
Just leave me a comment in between now and Monday to join in on the give away! How you might ask do you leave a comment? Just push the time and it will let you leave a comment! I don't know why it is like that, it must be a secret on my blog!LOL!

Have wonderfully warm and cozy night!

What day is it........What month is it?!!!!!

I

Looking for the snow!!! We just don't get enough these days!!

Our Easter Village!!! Thank you so much Aunt Barb!


Well, can you believe it is March 4 already? Where did the last half of February go?
At our house it was spent spring cleaning and getting ready for spring and Easter, yes Easter!
Easter will be here so soon this year! I was afraid I wouldn't have the house decorated so I did it already! I think Easter and St. Patrick's Day go well together, don't you?! Anyway, not only were we spring cleaning we had to get sick, wouldn't you know. Yes, John brought it home from work one day. He tried to give it away. I am afraid I was the only taker! You did know the best way to get rid of something was to give it away!!!! Give away....I said give away!!!!
I am going to have a Give Away! My bloggy friend Sharon is a great give away person! She has the absolute best give aways! Granted mine won't be as great as hers , but I am going to give it my best shot! It will have something fun, something green, and something that Sharon absolutely loves!!! Why something Sharon loves, well because there is a give away thing going on to honor Sharon called Sharon the love! I will post the picture and the details tomorrow! I promise!

Now that we are on the mend! Thank Goodness the girls didn't get sick. John and I didn't even have the same thing. Go figure! I am back to my challenges. An update on my very first attempt at quilting. I thought no matter what, I would love it. Well, I don't know what happened, I suspect a lot of things. Anyway, I don't love it or like it. Lilli does, however, and she wants me to try again! I will try, but I don't know when.
We tried needle felting for the very first time last week and lets just say we love it! Yes, it is great! Lilli loves it! She loves making the buttons! I am hoping everyone gets something needle felted for Easter!!!! Maybe an egg!

Best wishes go out to my BFF, Deanna, I hope you have the quickest of recoveries!
I know you will! As Kacey says, YOU ARE TOUGH!!!! Deanna, I wanted to put one of our fun pictures on here, but the last one I could find that I had was the one with us at the craft show, when John played Santa!!!LOL!!! You are so much better at remembering to take pictures than I am! Darn it!!!

My haiku for today....

BEING YOURSELF
Helpful to others
Smiling inside and outside
Happy heart always


Of all things that Lilli learns from me in her life, I hope it is being yourself always!

Have a wonderfully warm and cozy day!!!
Vickie
