Happy Mail from Paper Crafts!!

A couple weeks back I was named as one of the winners of the Diggin' On Damask Challenge on the Moxie Fab World blog.  I was very happy to come home from our trip to Mississippi to see this box on our front porch!!

I about fell over when I opened it and found ALL the goodies inside here - Everything is from Making Memories - lots of paper from the Paper Reverie Collections (Sienne, Noir, Metallique, Brun Antique) plus ribbon, diecuts, brads and journaling pages PLUS lots of delicious Vintage Groove pendants and chains for making your own jewelry!!  It is past 11 at night and I need to go to sleep but I am so excited over my treasures!!

We had a great weekend in Mississippi - My "bestest cuz" Selena and I left the kiddos with their dads and headed off to brave the shopping on Friday.  $10 jeans at Bass Pro Shop made the trip worthwhile - plus coffee from Starbucks, sushi for lunch and cupcakes for dessert - lots of other shopping in there too but I like to think about the food.

The boys had great fun riding 4-wheelers, shooting bb guns and playing with the dogs, etc. when it was daylight and after dark there was plenty of Rock Band and Just Dance on the Wii. 

We had a big family dinner on Saturday night and a bonfire afterward plus fireworks!  Loads of fun - our car looked like the aftermath from Mt. St. Helen's this morning from the ash but Corey and Steve washed it off before we headed home.

When I was around all the family I forgot to take any pictures - sheesh!  But I did manage to take some pics of the cows - it was late in the day and the sun was setting -

I was surprised to see calves so late in the year.  They were super cute though -
We are glad to be home but were sad to say goodbye.
