This will be Quick.......

Famous last words!
I'm leaving tomorrow to visit my boy, so wanted to let you know!
I worked all weekend on the baby gift for one of my bosses.......
don't worry, pretty sure he doesn't know about the blog!

Vanessa was here for a couple sleepovers and was impressed.
I said, "If I see a picture of that on Facebook before I get it to that baby; you might get a licken!"

 
Sorry about the pic on the messy desk (can you tell I'm working on a House Mouse!?)
It turned out better than the one on the table.
The next one's a little dark, but the rest all had a glare!
I used DP, quilling, buttons, stickers, foam, bling, you name it, it's on there!
And those mittens....I didn't know what to do with the string,
so there it hangs!

 
Just have to fill the boxes now!
 
Here's a chipmunk in a tree, being really still & quiet so I don't see him!

 
Sunset, and I'll have you know all the snow I whined about, melted!
I. KNOW! WTH!
It was tropical for a couple days early this week!

 
My suitcase for the trip!
Pretty sure Kalen hasn't been reading the blog either!

 
Vanessa & I weighed it Tuesday night;
 it weighed 36.4 lbs. and that's without my clothes in there!
It's stuff he bid on;
and I paid for from the Silent Auction at the Family Rebellion in August.
I'm taking him 3 containers of honey, cause they gave me a case at work.
His sister gave me his Christmas present to leave there.
I might or might not have his Christmas gift in there too!
The bear is one he was bidding on at the Silent Auction;
 my aunt won it with her bid, then told me to take it to him, cause she had so much fun!
 
So I'm off, I'll be back next week!
Hope all you peeps on the East Coast are staying warm & safe.
 
Stay out of trouble!
Talk to ya later!
Ta ta for now!

Hope your journey is a safe one. Your snow melted and we got lots. Our trees here are beautiful with the snow on them. It would make a lovely picture for a Christmas card. Love the teddy bear your aunt won and then gave to your son. Love the baby gift you made they can use it for many years to come. Talk to you soon.

You pic is just fantastic, what a work - you have good nervers.
