One Frame to Rule Them All...

the frame on the far right with the rainbow, that's our wedding photo... this is about half of the frames we've collected over the years.
It all started 12 years ago.
In Waikiki Hawaii.
Dale and I got married on 10/6/2003
We accumulated a massive amount of ABC store points.

If you've traveled to Hawaii and shopped at the ABC Convenience stores you know what I'm referring too...

So at the end of the trip I had to use all those point.

So many receipts stacked up.
I quick gathered them all and ran down to the ABC store in our hotel.
I bought a necklace, a coffee mug, some more post cards and then I bought out wedding frame.

The cheesiest looking frame I could find.

So it began.

After that we would take a picture on our travels and buy a cheesy frame to put it in. 

The rules of the frame are simply.

1. Under 20.00, the cheaper the better really.
2. Has to be amazingly cheesy.

Our newest edition to the Cheesy Frame Collection. I love it.


Phoebe Marie Update:
It's been one month since we adopted her.
She's so sweet. So funny. Just wants a soft bed, delicious kibble with a dabble of canned food on top, toys to play with and someone to love her to bits.

Which we do.

She's done well in the few training classes we've made it too.
She met my father last weekend. First introduction since she's been with us and after the initial growling and barking, she warmed up to him and he really liked her.

How can you not fall in love with her. Even relaxed she has a little mischief in her eyes.

Sweet Phoebe.

Happy Friday!

SSYC... My First Official Yarn Crawl...

It's true... I've never actually participated in a yarn crawl or LYS tour. When I worked at So Much Yarn I had the pleasure of working the weekend of the LYS Tour but I've never done it. Well, the SSYC, South Sound Yarn Crawl covers 9 shops that aren't included for whatever reason in the Seattle LYS Tour that covers around 25 shops in the area. Maybe they're too far off the beaten path. It's not because they aren't in Seattle because there are shops way way way out of town that are included in the Seattle LYS tour. Whatever the reason, it's not important. What is important is that Mary and I both took Friday off and hit the road. I caught the 7:15 Ferry to Kingston, Arrived at Mary's about 8:00. Mary and I have the same china. Mine came from my Grandmother, her's came from her mom. Tried making friends with her fluffy dog Mae. Someday she'll come to love me, for now I'll respect her tenative personality and love her fro...

Remembering...

I don't know what karmic cosmic angels were flitting around today but they led me to the coffee aisle at the grocery store. More specifically it led me to the international moments. Which led me to thoughts of my grandmother. I loved her. I knew deep in my bones that she loved me. Grandma loved her International Moments coffees. Just smelling them. Holding the tin (though it's different now) Brings back memories of being with my grandma. She said these were her special treat and she'd make one for me to. Grandma made the best fresh blackberry pie. I know they were fresh because when she came to visit us in Bellevue she'd make us help her pick blackberries. She was the master of Christmas cookies, chocolate chip cookies and raspberry freezer jam. I make freezer jam from time to time and it reminds me of summer visits to Boise. Helping grandma in her garden, making sun tea, and smelling her roses. Sometimes, I buy a tin of Interna...
