Claudia's Blog Candy

WOW, is about all I can say!! This girl is super talented!! Claudia is close to 100 000 hits on her blog and is celebrating with this fun blog candy challenge. Here is the tutorial and a mighty fine one at that. All the details are on her site, have a look. I put 6 votives inside and will I will tuck a wee piece of tissue paper on top before I give it to someone special. I bought this paper at my LSS the other day and can't believe I've used it all up already...it's so very cute and double sided too! Thanks so much Claudia for the great tutorial and the fun blog candy!! Congrats on your blog and all your visitors, it really is fantastic!!

Well yesterday was quite the eventful day...Lance took both children to the bull sale. I was so looking forward to an afternoon of solitude, working on some projects and just some "me" time...but that didn't happen. I called Lance to see how things were going (first mistake!!) and he was ready to tie Landon up with duck tape (not that he would really do that or anything, but I'm, sure the thought crossed his mind) Kirsten was great but I guess Landon was a little tyrant!! Anyway, instead of letting him go crazy and struggle all afternoon to get some critter bought, I ended up going to the bull sale to handle the children (not sure what the issue was...they were angels for me:-)LOL!!! But anyway, he managed to buy 2 new bulls he is pretty happy with. Landon is so excited to have them come home to have a sleep over with us! Then had to go and do my clean up duty at the pre-school garage sale and lets just say cleaning up 16 tables of other peoples junk that didn't sell was not fun!! A lot of the clothes, kids toys, books and movies will go to the local women's shelter, so that's good, but some people brought in old coat racks that are broken, record players from 1970 I'm sure and other stuff that should have been in the recycle bin or garbage, but not a donation to try and raise fund for the preschool..anyway, off my soapbox now, glad that is done!

Today is absolutely beautiful out...so glad the snow is melting quickly! Hope you're having a wonderful day as well, thanks for visiting!
