My craft project this afternoon...

my mini photo albums...
the photo albums and matchbook candies...
my supplies...
a matchbook candy...I print out my collages...trim them...glue them on cardstock...fold them up...and glue life saver mints inside...then I bag them and price them...
I put 2 in this size...I fold the bottom up to make a place to slip the front into...like a matchbook...
and there they all are...these are great little gifts for any occasion and fun to put in gift baskets...
just a nice little surprise...

This morning...

the sun is out...but its a little chilly...
there's a moderate breeze this morning...
tomatoes and peppers that Steve picked up last night at Walmart...
Daphne is beginning to like the outdoors...
a fire in the pit would have felt good this morning...
Mr. Wiggles sneaking around...
I tried to get Steve to smile...instead he smirked and closed his eyes...
clematis...the first bloom this year...
Steve made us pancakes for breakfast...they were yummy...I had two...
with butter and syrup...
not sure about lunch yet...
take some time to have fun today...

My allergies are so bad right now...

pink knock out rose...
ferns...
front bed...
these are from Nova...
peonies from Pat and Charles...
walnut tree budding out...
columbine blooms...
where we sit on sunny days...
Bebe got his face trimmed today...he is so happy he can see again...
I can only stay out for a little bit and then back in the ac...and then back out...and then back in...need more allergy medicine...rain would wash the pollen out of the air...4 bouts of flu and then straight into allergy season...but it should soon be over and then hopefully back to normal...hopefully before we start planting...
Rebecca is giving me white flowers...I can't wait...I don't have anything white except the hibiscus...

Hope you have a good weekend...


we enjoyed the morning outside...
after tonight we are going to turn this over...fill it up...and watch the birds come...we have a frost warning out for tonight...
just talked to Mary from Ohio...she hasn't blogged since the snow was waist deep...
she is doing facebook...traitor...

some of the iris are blooming...I think this is one from Nova...it could be one of my dark ones...we moved some of them around last year...not sure...its 58 out now...a lot cooler than the rest of the week...but its still nice...and we need rain really bad...but the farmers need dry days more...
