Anniversary

It was our 8th anniversary this week. I forgot..completely. I have been so busy that it slipped my mind...until my staff told me there were these beautiful flowers waiting for me. I said "what?" and then..."what's the date today?" LOL....it was my anniversary. My husband remembered but I hadn't. Check out this arrangement. Gorgeous!

And to top it off, when I got home from work he had yet another surprise...this Pandora's box bracelet....G and E for my girls' names and a heart from him. I can't wait to add more charms! It was very thoughtful. Just what I wanted.

I received my awesome Cup o Joe kit from Betz White. I have not made the pincushion yet but I hope to start on it this weekend. Ahhh this weekend...I spent the entire day organizing toys, Barbies mostly...lots of paper art and drawings. It was a huge undertaking but I completed it...well mostly. There a couple of things I am trying to get into the goodwill bag...not sure my daughter will allow it.
I have been playing with some 5 inch charm packets lately and decided to add some rick rack to my repertoire. Walmart stocked tons of colors....I stuck to shades of green. Wondering what I am up to??
A cupcake cookie jar? Is that possible? well I made one. When my sisters were visiting we went to a local pottery shop and sat for an afternoon chatting and painting. I was thinking Susan Branch style...but didn't turn out exactly as I had hoped although cute I think.
I thought I would spruce up my page with these pretty little towels....I LOVE these towels...love the cherries
