February 3rd...

Yep..that's right. I can't believe it!  The district has closed the schools again today in honor of my


HALF BIRTHDAY!


(Not my cake...just a pix off the internet!)

I don't know what else it could be... The sun is shining.  My driveway is cleared! haha. (Or at least the last time I checked it was cleared!)

Mybearybest...who spoils me rotten...gifted me with TWO Kitchen Sink Stamp Sets.  I waited until the middle of the night, when i awoke, to open my package.    The Ducks and Pigs and Simple Sentiments...which have both been on my wishlist.  (AKA. I put them into the shopping cart; I take them out of the shopping card. I put them back into the shopping card; I take them back out of the shopping cart!)

Oh, I can't forget the fabby valentine's box Granny and Papa sent to us yesterday.  AN ADD ON to the MONOPOLY GAME. You should have heard the shrieks and squeals coming from these Monopoly Maniacs!  Also, A* got hand knitted legwarmers in teal. There were valentines and a sudoku book for Ken and I. A quirky valentine..which I'll have to snap a shot and show you later. And some craft supplies Again..wait until you see what this stuff does! 

I have stamped a few piggies, and figured THIS out. If you keep stamping a layer over and over..and it doesn't look "right," maybe it is UPSIDE DOWN. haha. I just oculdn't get the last layer to work. After trying several different colors of ink and "stamping off" tries, it hit me. The stamp was upside down! hahaha.

While I don't have a piggy card yet..here is a PMS card that fits today's Ways To Use It Challenge over at SCS.
