My Prize Winning Pumpkin!


At the girls' elementary school, there is a pumpkin contest at the fall festival every year. The room moms decorate a pumpkin for the class and there is a contest for the best pumpkin. Well, this year I made an elephant pumpkin - and let me tell you, it wasn't easy! But, it was worth my effort because it won first place! Here is a picture of the little guy - I have to say I feel a little bit proud of him LOL!

A Cup of Friendship




I was just given the "Cup of Friendship Award" by my friend Angie - I'm thinking she gave it to me to force me to blog LOL!!! I have been a slacking blogger - sorry 'bout that!

In order to claim my prize (which, in my mind, is hot chocolate - YUM!!!), I have to answer some questions:

1. Do you have the same friends since childhood? I have a few friends from childhood that I do keep in touch with, and several from high school that I am still very good friends with. Thanks to Facebook, I have gotten reconnected with some friends from elementary and middle school, and I am loving that!

2. What do you value most about your friends? I value knowing that my friends accept me for who I am, and will have my back when I need them to.

3. Are your friends your sounding boards? That would be a big YES!!! When I have something going on in my life, whether good or bad, I immediately have to tell my friends. I am lucky enough to have friends that will put up with all my whining =)

4. What is your favorite activity to share with your friends? I love going out to lunch and just chatting, or helping my friends plan parties. My best friend and I are huge party planners and we like nothing more than obsessing about every last detail.

Since there are 4 cups of liquid, I'm keeping one for myself (ok, I'm keeping two for myself because I don't have a third blogger friend to pass it to - how sad!) and passing the others along to....(and don't laugh because I don't know how to do the cute hyperlink thing - anyone care to fill me in?)....
