I'll Come Runnin' Just As Fast As I Can...

'Coz I am crazy 'bout a sharp dressed pumpkin man!

Some of the artists in TDIPT got together for an autumn swap. I just about did a back flip when I found out I was paired up with my dear friend Audrey of Bay Ray's Child!

I am blessed to own some of her fantastic creations! You can see some of her work for yourself by clickin' here.

Not only is she an extremely talented artist, she has the most gorgeous home I've ever seen!!!
Someday she's gonna open her front door and find me sittin' in a (very large) basket wearin' a baby bonnet.

Check out my dapper pumpkin man and raven she made!

He's dressed to the nines...

He's even sportin' spats!

Audrey darlin', I can't thank you enough!! They are absolutely wonderful!!

I Will Remember You...

As I Wait For The Paint To Dry...

I started feelin' a lil' Halloweenie so I started draggin' out Halloween decorations.

Updated Pic:
Ta-dah! Hubs and I got 'em hung.
Hope I made Betsy proud.

Ya Wanna Know A Lil' Secret...

I am madly in love with blue painter's tape.

Yes, it's true. (I haven't broken the news to my hubs yet)
I use it for everythin', includin' my latest project.

I got the itch to paint the fire wallboard behind our dinin' room wood stove.
Since I am known as the "crazy flag lady," (a title I wear proudly) I decided to paint a Betsy Ross style flag.
I still have much more to do, but I snapped a quick pic anyway.

I'll keep ya posted.

Don't Miss Out...

The man whispered, "God, speak to me"
and a meadowlark sang.



But, the man did not hear.

So the man yelled, "God, speak to me"
and the thunder rolled across the sky.



But, the man did not listen.

The man looked around and said, "God, let me see you"
and a star shone brightly.



But, the man did not notice.

The man shouted, "God, show me a miracle!"
And a life was born.



But, the man did not see.

So, the man cried out in dispair, "Touch me God,
and let me know you are here!"

Whereupon, God reached down and touched the man....



But, the man brushed the butterfly away and walked on.

He is everywhere. Don't miss out.
