WANTED: 5 people who want a homemade gift!.......made by me (ha ha)

I know, I'm not sure why I'm doing this either.....thanks Nicole (ha ha)....everyone knows I'm not crafty - but here goes! :D

The first 5 people to respond to this post will get something made by me! (Katy & Nicole - feel free to post twice since you're my only readers, ha ha) My choice! For you. This offer does have some restrictions & limitations:

1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make!
2. What I create will be just for you.
3. It'll be done this year. That gives me a good 11 months to get it done.
4. You have no clue what it's going to be. Who knows? Not you, that's for sure.
5. I reserve the right to do something extremely strange.

The catch? Oh, the catch is that you must repost this on your blog and offer the same thing to the first 5 people who do the same on your blog. The first 5 people to do so and leave a comment telling me they did win a FAB-U-LOUS homemade gift by me!
*Oh and be sure to post a picture of what you win when you get it!*

Birthday Girls!

My little sister Adrienne & Andy's little sister Debbie both share a birthday & this year it fell on Friday the 13th! How was their day? Adrienne spent the day shopping at the mall & Debbie got 'pampered'......no bad luck there.
Adrienne just turned 17 & is a Junior in High School - she loves herself (ha ha) - I'm not kidding - she can spend HOURS in front of the mirror.....but yes, she does have her older sisters' beauty (ha ha ha ha ha - I'm referring to Ake & Lesley - what are you guys laughing at? HA HA).
Debbie just turned 23 - yes, that makes me feel very very old, cos I remember her when she was only 12. She works at the Cracker Barrel Restaurant in Springville & also goes to school to become a Dental Assistant......so she is soooo busy.

My family (in Arizona) have a tradition of taking everyone (which is 10 people) out to a buffet restaurant to celebrate birthdays, so they were able to do that for Adrienne & she loved it......of course my Mom does too, so she doesn't have to cook. Since we weren't there for her birthday - we sent her a music card (with the Madagascar song) & some $$.

Our family (Nielsons) got together on Sunday & had a family dinner - then had cake & ice cream - YUMMY!
Debbie is usually hard to shop for, but we know what a huge 'Twilight' fan she is, so we decided to pre-order the DVD for her, so she'll have it delivered to her home & a cute wood sign that says 'It's a Twilight thing'. I can't wait to watch the movie over & over & over again at home (ha ha).

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ADRIENNE & DEBBIE - WE LOVE YOU BOTH!!
