Friends...

I believe that God knows when we
Need a friend to come into
Our
lives
&
become Our Rainbow in the storm of life!
This past year I have been Blessed
with a
New
Internet Friend,
Betty!
We were originally paired together
in Aunt Pitty Pats
Sewing Accessories Swap...
Unfortunately & still to my embarrasement,
I was UNable to
fulfill my swap obligations!
But, Betty being the
Sweet person that she is..
understood & let me off the hook.
I was at a very desperate time in my life
& found it so Easy to confide in Betty!!
We are very Far apart in
miles..but I feel very close to her despite
those miles that seperate us!
We have since continued Our friendship
&
every once in awhile..
We send each other little
packages..just because!
Its Amazing that Betty's packages
always seem to arrive perfectly scheduled
&
remind me that I have a
Special friend
thinking of me:)

I just talked with Betty the other day & she mentioned
that her & her husband had
taken a little trip
to the border...

That little rascal failed to mention
she had put something in the mail
for me at the border...

Today I received a Halloween package!
So, Betty is quite the quilter
&
Guess what I got??
Not 1 but 2
Quilted Mug Rugs
WooWoo!
a Pretty Fall card,
& Chocolate!
Not just Any chocolate...
My New addiction(thanks to Betty)
Canadian "Smarties"
Oh my!
They are Soooo yummy..
Kinda like M & M's but yummier:)
the Chocolate isn't as bitter as  M & M's.
I hope she knows she has Created
a Monster!
Here's a pic of my
Sweet Halloween gifts
Thank you Betty,
for Always keeping me in
Your thoughts & prayers!

Yarni Gras! Zombie Doll Swap..


I joined
Zombie Doll Swap..

It sounded like So much Fun,
I just couldn't resist!

Val partnered me with Jill because
we have very similar
Halloween decorating tastes:)
We don't do the
Scary, Gorey, Evil stuff!


This is a Peek into the box I received Yesterday...

I was So Excited to see my Zombie Doll!!
&
to my Delight
"Undead Fred"
pops his Cute, Brainless,
Head out to say Hello

&
Lots of other Goodies were nicely tucked in
with Undead Fred..
Black & Orange Crocheted washcloths!
Caramels(how did Jill know Caramel apples are my Fave??!!)
Halloween Crochet Pumpkin Pattern
Recipes for Pumpkin Dip & Pumpkin Bread(can't wait to try the dip!)
3 Halloween/Polkadot!!  Note Pads
1 Candy Corn Notebook

Here is a Close up of
Undead Fred..
I think he is just Too Cute!
I Love the creativity Jill used
in
Creating him:)
His "Will work for Brains"
sign
cracks me Up!
& Jill even made a little pocket
on the back of his shirt
to hold the sign.
You can't see them
very well in the photo
but,
Undead Fred has many
Cuts & Scrapes Too..
Poor Fred :(


Thank You, Jill
for bringing
Undead Fred into my life..
My Swap package
was just perfect!
