Liberty!





In a chariot of light from the region of the day,

The Goddess of Liberty came

She brought in her hand as a pledge of her love,

the plant she named the Liberty Tree.

Horsin' Around!

Came across these wonderful old horse show ribbons at an estate sale today. I couldn't resist buying the WHOLE box of them.

They are all from the 40's, 50's,60's, and 70's and are in great shape!


I'm not quite sure what I am going to do with them...but I did decide to part with one and I have it listed on my Etsy shop.



Check out the listing here:

Farm Girl!

While listing some new items in my Scrap Shop today I noticed that they were all becoming centered around a specific "theme"... Lately I have been ADDICTED to anything that looks country or farm style so this must have been my inspiration when I was searching for items to list.


Anyone else C-R-A-Z-Y about "Farm" stuff too??

Viva Las Vegas!




Tomorrow my hubby and I are off to Las Vegas for a fabulous five day vacation!

We decided (rather spur of the moment) that we wanted to go to the Gonzaga Bulldogs play in the WCC.


We'll be staying at the Orleans....





Looking forward to a fun time with lots of friends and great entertainment. We also plan on stopping by the famous Pawn Stars location. Can't wait for that!
Viva Las Vegas, everyone!
