Taking a little break....



Ok, so I'm not really on vacation. In fact, I'm pretty sure I've never been busier in my entire life. But my little Etsy shop, Pink Owl Paperie, is taking a vacation. I'm closing up the shop until fall. We just have too much going on between getting our current house ready to sell, getting ready to build our dream home, end of school year activities, summer house guests, getting ready to launch my hubbies new business, etc... and I'm really looking forward to having my kiddos out of school for the summer! We have a lot on our plates right now, too much really but it will all be worth it in the end. (So my dear friend Jami keeps telling me, and she is right ;)) So for now my little shop will close. It will reopen sometime this fall with lots of fun new changes. I'll still pop in here on the blog from time to time too. Well enough sitting around... I've got more trim to paint and boxes to pack! Have a great Monday!

Someday...


My hubby is so sweet! I am not a car person. Honestly I could care less what I drive as long as it gets me from point A to B. There have only been 2 cars I've ever loved and neither are very practical. I really want an old pickup, to be more specific I want a Ford or a GMC 1948-1955. (the other car is a convertible slug bug) I just think they are so cute! I've always admired them, but lately my hubby has been talking very seriously about them. He's even been looking for them on line. (Which is where the photo of the truck above came from) They are a little spendy because most of the time they are tricked out like hot rods, but mine doesn't need to be that fancy. I love this one he found. I especially love the aqua color and the fact that the chrome has not been painted. He found a really cute green one (a GMC) with the wood slat bed and it's great too but even more pricey. My dear hubby keeps hinting that it would make a great Mother's Day present, but I think for now I should just keep dreaming! What are you dreaming of?
