this little piggy...

SO, I started with a plain old white piggy bank from Michael's....Then I added a skirt and some feather boas.......

Then I added a flower.... a pretty pink flower....


Some paint and a little bit of decor....
And you get a piggy bank for your boyfriends daughter, Zoey! I love her and can't wait to give it to her.

Valentine's Day

I spent the morning sleeping in as late as Maverick let me [which was 8:30am]....

I had a bowl of cereal [Golden Grahams] and they were amazing. I then took a quick trip to Walgreens... to get some candy for Cory and Zoey!

About 2pm, I headed over to Cory's. When I got there, Zoey was still taking her nap. My wonderful boyfriend surprised me with TWO dozen roses and a box full of assorted Dove Chocolates... they are my favorites. He also made brownies!!!!

A little later, Cory went in to check on Zoey. He walked out of the room and BAM!! she woke up!!! She called out for me... hoping I was there!!! AND I WAS!

We exchanged gifts. Zoey got a little Ty Beanie Puppy, an outfit that says "Daddy's Little Sunshine" and a bag of M&Ms.... Cory got a polo shirt, a t-shirt, a Wii Light Saber game and some cherry sours... i hope he shares!

Cory took his ladies out to Gringo's. It is one of our favorite places and I was 100% happy with this. Zoey loves to take pictures with my camera and then color them. She started out sitting next to Cory and then moved over by me. I can't complain. I love that girl!

Enjoy the photos...





It was the best Valentine's day I have had. :)

Fondant...

Not me Thursday...

Usually on Mondays, my favorite blogger posts these "not me" statements to kind of confess some ridiculous thing you do... I don't normally participate because they are usually about children.... However, this morning while I was looking through my "weight watcher" bag, i noticed something that I can share...

I am not a girl that has a ziplock bag full of my favorite Dove chocolate in my "Weight Watcher" bag. Nope, not me!

I also don't have a bag of Reese's peanut butter hearts in that same said bag. No way! That would be insane!!!!

Well I did lose 6 pounds at weigh in on Tuesday, so maybe it's working for me!!!!

Happy Thursday!!!!
