Frou Frou Gypsy in Combat Boots

ok so i have been MIA. sorry. Well the FBD is moving along. We are getting use to the swing of things. Total weight loss so far is about 6 pounds. I can't say that i am really happy with that. I had expected more. I am in full swing of my Moon time right now so the diet is pretty much out the window for a day or so. I am headed out of town this weekend with some friends from church, so who knows what I will be eating. No worries. I have been busily getting ready for girlz weekend which is coming up in just a few weeks. I have also been obsessed with my webkinz stuff. Honestly, I have also been in a funk, and avoiding life. If you can't be honest in your blog, then what good is it? Am i right? So I am hoping after this little retreat I will be back to "real life" and moving forward. If not, then hopefully girls weekend will snap me back!

Here are just a few of our webkinz.....they wanted to introduce themselves.... These are the gems...made from a paste of flour, coffee grounds, salt and water.....wrapped around gems and rocks. Here's the "mine".... the kids each got to pick three stones, like in the games, and crack them open to see if they found gems or slag (just a rock).

Here is the Wheel of WOW as it appears in Webkinz world. You get to spin it once a day to win prizes. Here is my (not so great) Wheel of WOW cake.... and here is our fabulous Wheel of WOW that we had for the party! It was a lot of fun for the kids. My Dad had made this years ago for a church thing as a Wheel of Fortune...so i just turned it into the Wheel of WOW and Webkinized it for the party. The kids loved it!

Here is a little glimpse of the Webkinz party. All the kids had a great time and My DD loved it! It really was chaotic and fun! you can click on the pics to see them larger! I won't bore you with the details....but if you have questions, just ask!

Ok so my laptop has been "in the shop" for three weeks....so nothing i have done has been documented here. I am still waiting on it..... hopefully to come home early next week. It's a free repair thank-you-max-assurance so i won't complain, at least not too much. When it does return, i'll have many details of the webkinz party to share and maybe some other things. always cyndi

Right now i am up to my eyeballs planning, or finishing up, a Webkinz party for my DD's 5th Bday. It has been a lot of fun to work on, and i have gotten some GREAT ideas from a friend of a friend...and that has helped a lot! The biggest issues i have had is that there are NO party products that are already ready already so i am having to make everything!!! which is cool, and time consuming. It also involves a lot of computer work, some of which is out of my league, so my DH is having to do it for me. *smile* thanks darlin! I will have a lot of pictures to show you coming up and i will try to start posting some soon. If you don't know about Webkinz, what rock have you been living under? check them out... www.webkinz.com It is really cool. I am just as addicted as the kids are, in fact i need to see what's in the curio shop this hour! more details soon! cyndi
