N-E-I-L

While Jordan has been in "school"....I told Neil that he can do a project....so, we went to Joann's (one of my favorite stores) and we picked up some letters, paint and other wood embellishments. Of course, Neil choose red paint....(I just noticed my new purse is on the table...why is it there? Hmmm...I better move it before he paints another coat!) Here is a closer look at his letters....N - E - I - L...Oh, I picked up some letters also...M - O - M and purple paint!

So....it's July...my birthday is coming up...and my friend Lori gave me this beautiful purse! It's actually handmade by a woman in Japan...her website is www.tagodesign.com. I haven't visited it yet, but I will...isn't it cute? My two favorite colors...purple and black (silk). I love the shape and it is fully lined!

Thank you, thank you Canada!!! Oh, and Happy Canada Day!
