My favorite shape is the shape of a house!!! So the last few days I've been working with that shape - and it does take over my life. Above you see some little house journals that I'm sending to some friends as RAKs. I need to make some more to send before the end of the month. This house is based on one I saw on my friend
Tammy Gilley's blog. I love her stuff and she knows I love her stuff. We met at Silver Bella last November. She was my inspiration for those pennants I did last year ... in case you've forgotten.
This picture above is the beginning of some House ATCs for a swap on the Christian Paper Artists Yahoo Group. I must get back to working on them very soon.
Last weekend was my husband's birthday and we drove into Houston on Friday night and met the kids at
Pappadeaux's. I don't know what had just been said... but my kids are looking at each other funny. That's my son's girlfriend in the middle. We made a mistake and took the seat by the bar. We wanted the booth as the girls were cold. It was SO LOUD there - a bunch of guys were on the other side of that glass partition watching the Rockets play and having a very good time.
Don't those kids look young? I thought "people are going to think the girlfriend is 15!!!" I assure you all 3 of them are well out of college (
Texas A&M) and have good jobs! Praise the Lord! Have a good day!

This picture is making me cry, I'm laughing so hard! Totally me and Bob giving "that look" and Kacee is smiling away! Too funny.
Such delightful houses! Too bad I didn't have the time to join the swap, they're lovely! Linda, you may want to join the fun at my challenge, you could enter your lady with the fish purse!
The houses are great,
you did a wonderful job!
