whew!
i made it!
...with two minutes of Wednesday to spare!
last Saturday, while Jay was on the field,
and Mr D was taking apart the dishwasher,
i was at the farm table wrapping a present for a sweet baby boy!
i used some fun little pennant stickers and tiny twine
from Miss B at Besotted Brand.
i wrapped the orange grosgrain around the package once, and
tucked a pair of mittens before tying the knot! i snipped the
ends of the ribbons to match the pennant stickers.
the package was a winner, but the game was another story.
it was a sad day on the sidelines.
i am going to take a few days off from publishing to catch up
on my visits with all of you. i'll be back on Monday.
oh...about the dishwasher...
if your dishwasher is over three
years old, the "pods" or "packets", and some of the new
liquid varieties are not recommended for use.
there is a wealth of information on the subject
if you google your machine brand and check out
the recommendations.
Mr D saved us about 900.00 last Saturday.
bless his talented heart!
have a great weekend!
withLove!

Just stopped by and realized you live near by! We are a house-divided;) with a son that went to WSU and my daughter is in her 5th year at UW (accounting MA).. she is also a Sea Gal so we are huge football fans. Great new stadium!
ReplyDeleteNice meeting you!

How exciting that your son is a sportscaster! And that he was able to spend time at home with you over a holiday while in town.
ReplyDeleteLove your blog header!

Your son sure is a cutie! He reminds me of my youngest son...(he's a cutie, too-if I do say so myself). Love the sweet baby gift. What a fun present to receive. Enjoy your time away, Lynne! xo Diana
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute bow and package, Lynne. This is a nice picture of your son. I really miss the football games, as my son played it for many years.
ReplyDeleteThese were my school colors too!
Love,
