my Easter baskets

Last year I bought Easter baskets for Na and Malee {little cousins}. This year I decided to put together my own. It can be tough to make one, not knowing where to start. Here is what I have done for the girls baskets. Also I made one for an event to raise money aiding Japan. I started with: I played around with the arrangement of the items in the basket. Final products! Basket for Japan. I hope it raises a lot! In this basket: Disney painting, Peeps treats, planting pot with flower seeds, Eggs with candy. Adult Easter basket for Japan too! Golf stuff for the boys. I did not make this, but found it for a really awesome deal! Happy Good Friday & Easter!

photos that make me smile

It's a miracle she stayed still for a photo outside. Her tired look Mia likes to look for rabbits and squirrles. And she will tell you when she finds one! Ha! Rawr! This is Mia. She's named after Princess Mia from the movie "Princess Diaries". Mia is half pug and poodle- pug-a-poo. I've had her since 2004. When I went to college she became my replacement in the family. She's now my little sister. Ha! Mia knows when to give kisses {when im sad or when she is sucking up}. When she is hungry or thirsty she will tap on her bowl. Under the couch is where she will go if she's in trouble. Never go near my mom, Mia gets jealous. Mia can be a little diva too. She makes me laugh. Such a silly girl. Happy Thursday!

stop and smell the flowers

This is prob. late in the game. I had lots of tasks to attend to today and not enough time. Thank goodness for the best boyfriend ever. He helped me thru it all! Always my rock. The other day we took a tour of Salisbury. Did ya see those pics? If not go here . I made stops along the way to see the historic sites to take photos of these beautiful flowers and trees. I'm attracted and easily deterred when I see flowers. Happy Tuesday or Wednesday.

monday's with mark: a pop of blue

wearing: face: powder buff in honey and face expert in honey eyes: i mark in south beach, ocean drive, and get in line hookup liquid waterproof eyeliner  lips: juice gems in mango tango   {dress code for Victoria's Secret black blazer & "Pink" tank} The last time blue was a choice of eyeshadow for me was in my Victoria's Secret days. Yes, I was the beauty girl in the Victoria's Secret store. Being the beauty girl was a lot of fun. Playing with make up and fragrances was more play than work. Getting paid for it just made it even better! What brought back this color for me? Reese Witherspoon has a new movie coming out "The Water for Elephants". She walked the red carpet for the premier wearing blue eyeshadow,which complimented her blue eyes very well. Reese also has a post wedding glow! Blue is a playful color and with the right hints{always safe to be subtle}can be worn anywhere. Be careful. You do not want to go to work looking like M...
