Strawberry picking

I went strawberry picking for my first time ever on Wednesday! we had a ball. We picked 8 pounds and I am embarrassed to say...they are ALMOST GONE! Zander went nuts and ate a ton of them! LOL but better them than chips, right! He was so awesome. He helped me cut them ALL too. I washed and de topped and he cut them with the pampered chef slicer. Took us a while but we got it done! I have the best kids ever.

Krystal Hartley-Shabby Baby

Well Krystal has teamed up with Misty Cato again to bring you Shabby Baby! Here's a gift I did for a friend of my sisters. They just had their second son a couple weeks ago. This kit will out tomorrow morning or really late tonight at SSD and remember, all new kits are 20% off on Saturdays ONLY!

What's your gift?

Your Gift is Sensitivity

You are easily moved, and you have a strong emotional reaction to almost everything. Your sensitivity helps you get a lot out of life. You appreciate every moment more. It's hard for you to divorce yourself from your feelings. You notice every little thing around you. You're the type of person who finds empathy and compassion easy.

What's" Your Gift?

Nascar aahhhhhh

So! We went to our very first Nascar Race yesterday. WOW! It was so awesome. My Sister and I sat together and then Josh, Zander & Our soon to be Nephew(cousin) sat in another section together. My sister has never shown an interest in it but went for Zander. I *think* I might have got her hooked in a little! Maybe?! Come on...you have to admit it was totally awesome and way fun! Our seat were on turn 4 and when David Stremme hit those barrels we were just watching and I have the photos!! heehee. He was fine otherwise I wouldn't have chuckled. I am still living on a high from it! I took 127 photos. Huh...did I watch the race or just photograph it? Oh...I told my sis I would give up a body part to be the photographer shooting thru the fence cut-out. ahhh...Or to be up on the platform with the TV crews. But the best news....Jeff Gordon took SECOND!! Sure he would have been in 4th if the leaders hadn't run out of gas but everything works out as it should, right! LOL GO GORDON!!!
