A Little R & R


This, my friends, is the view from my room in Oceanside, California over this past weekend!!!  The hubs and I took a little winter holiday to go play in the ocean.  Our room was A-MAZING and we had SOOOO much fun.  Unfortunately, I STILL don't have a cord for my camera (I swear I'm rectifying that tomorrow) so my pics are all taken with my phone.  The biggest problem I had there was I was having so much fun that I kept forgetting to plug in my phone to charge.  So there were a ton of shots I missed simply because my phone was dead.


One of the shots I'm glad I didn't miss was the pier.  The pier in Oceanside is sort of the focal point for the city.  It is an ENORMOUS pier that takes you quite a ways out into the ocean and at the end of the pier....... a restaurant!!!  We had lunch at the end of a pier our first day in Oceanside.  What a way to start a vacation!!!


And of course there was SOOOOO much that went on in between.... a visit to Carlsbad, a train ride to San Diego, pedal cab ride in Balboa Park.... so, so many photo ops got missed because my stupid phone was dead!!!  UGH!  But what a great ending!  A beautiful sunset walk on the beach with my honey!!!  To see some REALLY great pics of Oceanside that I found online click HERE!  At least SOMEONE took a good camera with them!!!

MY VERY FIRST CRICUT CARTRIDGE GIVE AWAY!

Ok ... so the time has come. I've got some BRAND NEW, NEVER BEEN USED, STILL IN THE PLASTIC Cricut Cartridges to give away over the next couple of months and it starts with one of my ALL-TIME FAVORITES...... Hannah Montana! YAY! I LOVE this cartridge! It's got the most beautiful guitar images along with musical notes and FIVE fonts! I used the regular font and the rock star font to create my Father's Day card this year (see above). I also used the Hannah Montana cart (see below) to create a beautiful butterfly (FREE Gypsy cut file HERE ), and am currently working on a project using the gorgeous solitaire diamond. There's a rose and lips and decorative hearts, even a Pegasus ! There's just so much on this cartridge.... I use it a lot! To call this a "font" cartridge is terribly misleading. It's been a long time favorite and now I'm THRILLED to be able to give it away to one of my awesome readers! So here's how to win: Become one of my follower...
