Day 157 - Easter Sparkle

Easter wouldn't be complete without chocolate bunnies, marshmallow Peeps, eggs and....drag queens! It has become our family tradition to attend Richmond's Monument Avenue Easter Parade. We're talking a serious people watching event! Thousands of people stroll the streets...along with about a thousand dogs and a few good ole' fashion drag queens which bring a whole lotta sparkle and character to the event! Every year we make our Easter hats, and each year we've won something in the Easter Bonnet competitions (this year, our son won us four tickets to a baseball game...go Flying Squirrels!). It's a great picture taking event! We were able to grab a quick pic with our favorite queen, Sirena Sparkle, posing here with my hubby, Jack. I'd do about anything for her earrings!

Happy Easter!

Day 48 - It's All About the Candy

It's not hard to guess that I love scrapbooking. Not that I have any time to do it...but I have a mighty nice collection of scrapbooking papers and supplies! And if it has anything remotely related to Halloween (or, for some odd reason, anything with swirls...love swirls!), I have to have it. Yesterday I found this amazing vintage style paper at a wonderful local store called Memories Galore. I added a few of my favorite trims and rub-ons and got this amazing little collage. I think collage is becoming my new favorite hobby! And as for today's topic, in one way or another, it IS all about the candy!
