Another Wonderful Day!

Yesterday my BFF Becky and I were blessed with a day out together. Eating lunch and craft shopping is our favorite 2 things to do together. I am so blessed to have a wonderful person like her to "hang" with.

Lots going on since my last post. Prom is over, YEAH, went well, so very tired from decorating and cleaning up. School is out for the summer! Graduation is past! Now time to prepare for summer camp. I did manage to get more beads done, did some research on the net for recycled crafts, found some reallllly kewl stuff. Here is a pic of one of the progects that inspired me to try something new with all of the magazines my 2 girls still have stored around the house. I will post another pic when it is finished.


Took the baby (Channel) back to the vet yesterday for the last set of puppy shots and rabies. She weighed a whopping 27.4 lbs. I had no clue Labs grew so fast. I did know how big she will be full grown, I just didn't know she would grow so fast the first few months. Here she is today

She has been tired the past few days from shots and her buddy Blue spent the weekend with us.
I was going to post more pics from the yesterday shopping extravaganza but the camera is doing really strange things this morning. It took an hour to get these 2 pics I posted here so I may be shopping for another camera today. I got some really pretty paper yesterday for some new bead designs I saw and am going to try to recreate.
A new friend of mine has a wonderful giveaway on her blog, you should go check it out if you are interested at all in making your own beads. http://justjenndesignz.blogspot.com/

Have a Great Week!

Finally!! Beads

I finally got my beads finished, photographed, and listed! Here is a pic of the finished ones listed on etsy and another pic of more drying. Here is a tutorial I found online if you want to make some yourself. They are quite addicting!

This is why it took so long! Every time I try to work on my crafts, Channel thinks it is time to play with her little friend!


Here she is defacing the Yorkie cage one minute and the next, scratching her ear and looking at me like "Whaaaaaat, I was just trying to play with my friend!"

Then 2 seconds later, laying on the rug she also defaced, acting sleepy!


She is now napping on my feet which is good because I needed to update my blog. I did get some beads finished today so I guess I will go pack the important stuff to take with me to the storm cellar tonight. We already lost 2 fence panels this morning from the wind and are expected to have tornadoes and hail tonight! Just another day in Oklahoma.
Have a great day and stay safe!:)

Still Busy

I hope this post finds everyone happy and healthy! So it has been a while since the last post! Boy time flies when you are training a puppy! She has grown so much since my last post, but still acts like a baby. She went from 7.6 lbs in the last pics to 12.5 lbs in the most recent ones here. I thought I would post a pic of her friend, Blue, so this is what we have to look forward too. I just hope she is as well behaved as he is!
He is such a sweet baby, all 95 lbs. of him!

Here is Channel now.



And here she is being spoiled by daddy ON MY COUCH! You can tell more about her size in this one.



Here is an older one for size comparison and trying so hard to be gentle with T-Bone. He is slowly warming up to her when she isn't going full bore.



Still haven't got any more bears done. I need to work up a few more since I sold 2 last week, but crocheting isn't very feasable with a lab that likes to play with yarn. I have been working on some new beads though and will post some pics when I get them sealed. I just got my diamond glaze in the mail yesterday.
