I am one LUCKY girl!

Wow! Today has been such a great day for me. I have so many wonderful friends, and I am so thankful for all of them. Where do I start?

First, I am very excited to announce that I am in the Creating Keepsakes Reader Spotlight! You can read all about it here.

Next, my AWESOME friend, Liz, created the beautiful banner you now see at the top of my blog. Look at the owl she put up there for me! I couldn't be happier. Thank you, Liz!

Also, I had the most amazing mail day. My mail man greeted me with this mail load:



I was so excited when I saw all those packages! I was waiting for some stamps that I ordered from My Favorite Things. They came, and I was so happy with them! There's a few stamps that look just like a Great Dane and remind me of Sedona. I knew I had to have them!

The next package I opened was from Rachel. She sent me the most awesome RAK - just because! How sweet is that? She even made that adorable "Let It Snow" card you see. Thanks, Rachel!!

As if all these goodies weren't enough, I received my package from my Creating Keepsakes Secret Santa, Cortney. WOW! She went all out. First, check out this amazing t-shirt she made me! It has a hippo fairy on it as well as my Creating Keepsakes message board name:

She carried the hippo theme onto the card as well.

Then came all these exciting goodies which included some purse cards, elastic ribbon, punctuation stencil, and chipboard! Oh, and don't forget the M&Ms of which I've already eaten about half! There goes my diet...


Thank you, Cortney!!

I am so grateful to have such wonderful people in my life who care about me. I am truly one lucky girl!!
