Look what I did with the kit I won!!!!!

Here's a LO I did with the AWESOME kit I won for the Challenge on Pixelfairy’s Scrapblog
http://pixelfairys.wordpress.com/
Thank you so very much!!!!!!!!!!!




Nothing much going on here except working on cleaning out my flower beds which is taking forever!!! LOL
In closing I'll leave you all with this little tidbit my sister sent me!!!!

A Keeper
Their marriage was good, their dreams focused.
Their best friends lived barely a wave away.
I can see them now, Dad in trousers, tee shirt and a hat and Mom in a housedress, lawn mower in one hand, and dish-towel in the other.
It was the time for fixing things.
A curtain rod, the kitchen radio, screen door, the oven door, the hem in a dress.
Things we keep.
It was a way of life, and sometimes it made me crazy.
All that re-fixing, eating, renewing, I wanted just once to be wasteful.
Waste meant affluence.
Throwing things away meant you knew there'd always be more.
But then my mother died, and on that clear summer's night, in the warmth of the hospital room, I was struck with the pain of learning that sometimes there isn't any more.

Sometimes, what we care about most gets all used up and goes away...never to return.
So... While we have it... it's best we love it... And care for it....
And fix it when it's broken..... And heal it when it's sick.
This is true... For marriage.... And old cars.... And children with bad report cards.....
Dogs and cats with bad hips.... And aging parents.... And grandparents.
We keep them because they are worth it, because we are worth it.
Some things we keep.
Like a best friend that moved away or a classmate we grew up with.
There are just some things that make life important, like people we know who are special....
And so, we keep them close!

I received this from someone who thinks I am a 'keeper', so I've sent it to the people I think of in the same way...
Now it's your turn to send this to those people that are 'keepers' in your life.
Send it back to the person that sent it to you if they too are a keeper.
Good friends are like stars....
You don't always see them, but you know they are always there
People are made to be Loved and Things are made to be Used
There is so much confusion in this World because People are being Used and Things are being Loved.

THAT'S WHAT YOU ALL MEAN TO ME!!!!!!!!!! HUGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now I leave you with another joke my sister sent me awhile ago
63 and Pregnant
A woman went to the emergency room, where she was seen by a young new doctor.
After about 3 minutes in the examination room, the doctor told her she was pregnant.
She burst out of the room and ran down the corridor screaming.
An older doctor stopped her and asked what the problem was; after listening to her story,
he calmed her down and sat her in another room.

Then the doctor marched down the hallway to the first doctor's room.
'What the hell's wrong with you?' he demanded.
'This woman is 63 years old, she has two grown children and several
grandchildren, and you told her she was pregnant?!!
The new doctor continued to write on his clipboard and without looking up said:
'Does she still have the hiccups?'

With that now I'll leave you with a little something my sister sent me that I thought you all would enjoy!!!!!!

THE SNEEZE
They walked in tandem, each of the 92 students filing into the already crowded auditorium.
With their rich maroon gowns flowing .. and the traditional caps, they looked almost ... as grown up as they felt.
Dads swallowed hard behind broad smiles, and Moms freely brushed away tears.
This class would NOT pray during the commencements- ---not by choice, but because of a recent court ruling prohibiting it.
The principal and several students were careful to stay within the guidelines allowed by the ruling.
They gave inspirational and challenging speeches, but no one mentioned divine guidance and no one asked for blessings on the graduates or their families.

The speeches were nice, but they were routine..... until the final speech received a standing ovation.
A solitary student walked proudly to the microphone.
He stood still and silent for just a moment,and then, it happened.

All 92 students, every single one of them, suddenly SNEEZED!!!!
The student on stage.. simply looked at the audience and said, 'GOD BLESS YOU, each and every one of you!' And he walked off stage...

The audience exploded into applause.
This graduating class had found a unique way to invoke God's blessing on their future with or without the court's approval.
Isn't this awonderful story?
Pass it on to all your friends..... ....and GODBLESS YOU!!!!
This is a true story; it happened at the University of Maryland
