I painted this back when I was in 5th grade (maybe)... amazing it's still intact!

Blue Egyptian Cat

My son's love of cats, and his keepsake from Eqypt when we visited Cairo on election day Nov 2010. The traffic was insane; WHAT a drive!

Grandma's Passion

Grandma Bertha was very creative. If she wasn't making arts & crafts, she was baking, gardening or in high spirits laughing.

Flashed Rikku

Rikku didn't like the flash. I made up for it by scratching her ears and chin. Puuuuurrrrr!!!!

Cat Box

My son made this for me. The box actually opens to store stuff. He filled it with candy when he gave it to me. YUM!

New Hiking Boots

Hiked to Black Mountain today and the new boots were perfect! Hiking down the steep hill on the return trip was a little rough on the feet, but I wasn't the only one. It was a beautiful day for the 4 mile round trip hike. I didn't fall down this time; shoelaces tied! :D

Jean Hamper

I had all these jeans and I decided to be creative. My first try at a sewing project in a LONG time. If nothing else, it matches the jean curtain on the window. :0)

Yuki

Here is our camera-shy, cord-chewing Yuki. We saved her from a filthy garage overrun with cats. She's the softest cat we've had. Once I figure out how to use my son's camera, I can take a picture showing off her pretty tail!

Promise Ring

With last year behind me and this year a clean slate, I decided to buy myself a gift - a promise ring.  This ring symbolizes the promise I made to myself for this year. :+)
