Thank God for Friends!

So, my boys left me.

AGAIN.

This hunting thing has GOT TO STOP.

This poor mama hates to be home without them.

So I did the smart thing.

I got out SEVERAL projects and began working on SEVERAL at once.

(SEVERAL makes for a BIG mess.)

And then I put in an all time favorite movie: Stepmom.

BIG MISTAKE.

HUGE.

I bawled and bawled and bawled.

And then, I bawled some more.

Woofta... that movie BREAKS my heart!

Especially when I'm missing my boys.

Anyway... I was rescued the next morning (with puffy eyes and all) from a DEAR friend. We went and got latte's (LARGE!) and then headed to find some rummages.

But we took a detour to a favorite antique store...

And then to some junk stores...

And then to Hobby Lobby....

And funny enough, we never made it to ONE rummage!

But boy did we have fun.

And did we find some good stuff!

Here is one of my digs (98 Cents):


And, WALA: (I had all of this stuff at home.)

Thanks Amy for turning my weekend around!

I looove your jar. How did you make that!? I mean, I know some paint and glue but really HOW!? In my mind I can make things like that but when it comes down to real life my projets never turn out right. :( I bought some bottles for .25cents this weekend and put some colored water in them and put them on some super high windowsills in my living room. My son says "Bue apljce Mommy?" and points, like I should be concerned. You inspire me to be more crafty!
