Color Swap

Time to recap the fun!!!

I am sooo excited to say that I participated in the Favorite Color Swap hosted by Beth and in the process met a truly amazing woman, Sherri, that I can now call my new friend and bloggy friend!

My new friend Sherri can be found HERE at her adorable blog space where she blogs about her family, faith, fashion and other miscellaneous things!! He favorite color is purple!! Make sure you check out her blog! She is an amazing woman that has overcome some obstacles in her life and still has an amazing outlook on life and faith - not to mention AWESOME fashion style - which I admit I lack - hee!!

She wrapped everything in this beautiful tissue paper with ribbons and sunflowers and I thought I had taken a picture but sadly I cannot find it!?!?

Here is my note from my new buddy!!!

And now, onto the awesomeness that was inside!!!!  She sent me this adorable purse!!! This has already in two days become my FAVORITE summer purse!!! I LOVE the yellow and it is the perfect size for any summer outing!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE!!

She also sent this adorable necklace!! How awesome is this?! It will be perfect with so many outfits I have now and I love the brown beads mixed in - seriously so pretty!!! I am wearing it at work already today - yippee!~~

Sherri also sent me this adorable kite to do my own pedicures...awesomeness!!!

And some beautiful polish!!! (Brilliant minds must think alike as I sent her polish as well) :-)

 

Loving this Livestrong bracelet...I see a lot of people in my races wearing these so I am now the happy owner of one!!!

And last but definitely not least...I am so sure that Sherri got to know me by this last item! I was confused when I saw the white pillow case but once I opened it up it was clear! She really really got to know me! I LOVE Kidrock more than any other musician EVER and she hooked me up with my very own Kidrock pillowcase! Yes, you heard correctly, I am now sleeping with Kidrock!!!! THANK YOU SHERRI!!!! HEE!!! 

 

I love it and also love everything else you sent! I was thrilled that you read my blog and got to know me and sent everything that I would have selected for myself!! I am so happy to now have made a new friend in the process! THANK YOU AGAIN SHERRI!

Did you guess my favorite color?!?!?

And thank you, Beth, for hosting this awesome swap!! I cannot wait for the next one!

Jacksons Mill Spring 2014

I cannot believe that I forgot to post about my amazing conference weekend!!!! I recently went to the Jackson's Mill 4H Camping location for a conference! It was amazing as always!!! I roomed with Laura (AKA Nancy) and we had such a great time!!! We roomed in Jackson's Lodge. This is the view from our balcony looking out onto the camp!!

This is a painting at the Jane Lew truck stop! It is a local painter and I SWEAR that is Jesus in the middle of the war! See him, in the white clothes and sandals?!?!? No-one believes me! My favorite painting ever though!!

These are the lovely women I was blessed to spend the weekend with~~~ Laura in in the back and then Carm on the left and Donna on the right. These are three of the most amazing, strong, beautiful and loving women I have EVER KNOW!!!! I am so blessed that they are in my life!!!

Me and my roomie!!!!!!!

This is all of us waiting for one of the speakers to start!!!!! XOXO  I did not get any pictures of it but I had the honor this Spring to actually chair one of the meetings! It was great and such an honor!

This is an awesome stop we found just by driving around the town and killing time. They blow glass here and have everything you can think of for gifts...PLUS a stuffed bear to pose with! HA After the bear ate me - I made everyone get a photo!

 Here is Donna and Laura trying to be serious and look scared of the bear!!

Carm did not exactly get what I was talking about...as you can see below...

 She decided to scare the bear instead!!! HA HA Love that woman!!!

I am off for an early lunch at work to go an mail out my package for the Color Swap!!! I am so excited!!!! I was paired with Sherri and cannot wait to see how she likes all the PURPLE stuff I have chosen for her!!

I hope yinz all have an amazing weekend!!!!!!!
