Mr. Owl
Isn't Mr. Owl adorable...or maybe it's Mrs. owl? I found this vintage goodie at Goodwill (I think they know me by name there). It looks like it's probably from the 70's and both my daughter and niece are big into owls right now so I couldn't leave without it! The body looks as though it's make from woven embroidery yarn...I wonder if someone sat there weaving it? I suppose I'll have to take it out of the frame to investigate.
Here is my finished heart sampler (I gave you a little peek in my last post). I'm one of those people who can't just sit and watch TV, I always have to be working on something so this was my latest project. The only problem with finishing it is now I have to search for something else to work on.

No Pictures, Please...
Ok...I have to admit that I absolutely, positively hate having my picture taken. Mainly because I never look good, most times I feel as though I look 30 pounds heavier than I am. Because of my aversion to photographs Tom and I don't have very many of just the two of us. So, on our anniversary, while Sebastian was sleeping off his strep throat and ear infection (poor baby) I set up the camera on auto to try to snap a few...as you probably guessed, I hated all of them, nothing was turning out to my liking not to mention it was just downright weird trying to pose in front of a camera sitting on a stack of Wii games. So, it turned into a big mess of goofing off, we were laughing so hard we couldn't breath and we were trying not to wake Sebastian which only made us laugh all the more, I don't think we laughed so hard in our lives. This is one of three that I actually liked and that I'll actually let anyone see...and yes, Tom is wearing his pajamas!
And I have to show you the lovely pink and yellow tulips he brought home for me (tulips are my favorite!)
And just a little peek at something I started working on while watching American Pickers (love that show!). 
So, that's how we celebrated our anniversary...take out for dinner, a photography session with Tom in his PJ's and American Pickers on the History Channel...what could be better? Maybe when I get that "new" summer anniversary date we'll celebrate more appropriately!
