overdue thank you's and found art






Mystele painted this lovely girlie and won this ebay auction.. she has a fabulous site full of whimsical folk art, gospel singing, and a glimpses into her world! thank you mystele!





I won this sweet bag from Connie at Dirty Footprints! I really never win anything and was smiling all day! Now, I want you to know that I take this pretty bag with me and I DO use it for shopping and errands, and I have gotten TONS of compliments on it too!

Thank you Connie!


We had the opportunity to take a little trip for a couple days to Salt Fork State Park, I did a couple peices of Found Art ( in true Jafa Girl Style ) and "hid" them around the lodge for someone lucky enough to find!




The lake we Hiked down to at the Resort, which wasn't bad, but it was UPHILL on the return, ohhhh,,, it was tough!




More found art in the lodge...




Peaches for my husband, I found this scrap wood at the resort and prettied it up for joe.





ok, so this is part of the view from our room,, and all I had to do was take a few steps to it.. in reality this is where I spent most of my time. i actually napped out there most of the first day. My mind has been so busy lately... lots of decisions to make. i didn't realize how exhausted I was or am.


( sigh ) still tired too!
