My twin sis and I have bucket lists. The funny thing is that they aren't literally on paper. They are in our heads. For instance, my Nay Nay called me and said, "You won 't believe what I did! I got big girl shoes…for my bucket list." "Really? Big girl shoes?" I asked. I knew exactly what she meant. When we were born, and back in the day when braces could or should be recommended for feet that in-toed, we weren't given that joy. As a result, walking in high heels can often be a challenge. My Nay Nay decided that she was going to cross off one thing on that bucket list and found a deal of 10 pairs of heels. (Not one but 10. She went for the gusto.) Each day, she practiced walking in her big girl shoes until the moment finally came and she ROCKED those heels! Together we have decided that we WILL cross off stuff on our growing bucket lists. Some of those things are on both of our lists while others are our very own "personal" bucket lists...

I love keepsakes and sentimental things too.
Let's see, today, hmmmm...I tried a new dish at an Italian restaurant. And I'm out of town, but still blogging on my stepfather's new laptop-a slight adjustment from using my desktop at home.
When I get home, I may come back for another visit to play around with your video software. :)
You have such unique ideas and I love those dolls your sister made. So adorable and what a wonderful keepsake.
I haven't been very creative lately but I have done handmade gifts in the past before I had my daughter. I can remember giving a girlfriend a mason jar full of all the ingredients and recipe for cookies (I think), I remember purchasing a torn up 1950's linen tablecloth (for 10 cents) with the most gorgeous pattern on it, I cut it up and sewed it into dish towels. My mom still uses them.
Gee, maybe I should do a video too!
Loved watching you! Hope you do more for us!
This was a fun post that let us put not only a picture but a voice with your blog.
Here's wishing your adorable self a great day with many blessings!!!
I'll be back....for a longer visit.
I was creative Saturday--we painted and completely re-decorated my son's room. It turned out great and he's really happy. Amazing what a coat of paint does for a room.
btw... I love that family frame behind you!
I tried to be creative on Saturday. I was looking for yarn to knit a sweater for my sister for Christmas. I could not find what I needed, which was frustrating, but I will look some more this week.
I'm all about creating gifts and finding something special for someone that has a sentimental value. Too much is spent on How Much something costs vs. what does the gift mean. Gifts are meant to have a meaning, especially at Christmas. Love the hand
prints of your girls...I wish I had thought to do that when my boys were little.
I made beef stroganoff on Saturday using a new recipe. It was nice but it was different...I'm not sure I'd make it that way again, but it was my husband's request for his birthday dinner.
