Something about this little guy reminds me of my grand nephew Cooper--who still has 3 to look forward to!

Thanks to Connie and Luna's Memories in Half Moon Bay, CA for yet another relaxing, creative and fattening Saturday class. This technique involved transforming shiny cigarillo tins into "rustified" with Golden products. As always, Connie created a lovely atmosphere and shared an amazing variety of images, embellishments and product.

Seattle Shopping is just the BEST for a birthday getaway!

Even the ladies' rooms are worth taking photos of! Here we visited the downtown Bon Marche (now a Macy's, may it rest in peace) and had to "do" the ladies room. Good grief...you could have a major theatrical event in it!




Back to the "ballroom" where a woman came up to us and said we were having so much fun she would take our picture for us--and she did!



Now, shopping has been a favored past time for a lot of decades of my life, but the greatest shock was that it turns out I am a petite! Huh? How can you be a petite at 5ft 5? Will miracles never end!


Thanks to my sister-in-law Judy and my friend Sylvia for a memorable birthday--next time maybe we should visit a museum or two just to add a bit of class to this crazy trio!
