Oklahoma trip

We started out our day at 5:30 am at the Fort Myers International Airport. Since Robbie was feeling goofy

I decided to join in.

Rob isn't feeling very goofy this morning though.

This was the first time Robbie or I had flown anywhere. It was a bit nerve wracking at first but we got used to it pretty quickly.

I believe this was the view before we landed at the Dallas/Ft. Worth airport. I soon learned that I do not care for taking off or landing lol. Flying is definitely much faster than driving though.

We had a 3.5 hour layover in Dallas so we grabbed something to eat. We found a BBQ place and thought we would try it out. These two plates (mine and Robbie's) plus 2 drinks cost $14. Neither Robbie nor I finished our food because it was nasty. On our flight home we were told that Cousin's BBQ is the worst place to eat at the airport. Lesson learned. We ate Pizza Hut on the way home :)

Since the BBQ wasn't good Robbie and I decided to hit Natalie's Candy Store conveniently located at our gate. This was Robbie's first time trying Rock Candy. He had a hard time getting used to the string but he was happy to get a soda and some candy.

Of course getting up early and flying all day wears a little guy out. We grabbed some Wendy's for dinner and Robbie crashed right afterwards.

More tomorrow....

Another Go! give away

Lavender Ridge is hosting an Accuquilt Go! give away. Head on over and try your luck.

I'm feeling fidgety

Do you ever get in a mood where you just want to change everything about your house? We don't plan on staying here for too much longer (hopefully)  so there is no sense in redecorating but I still have that itch.

I've been doing some online window shopping for the imaginary house in my head lol. Today I have been working on my imaginary kitchen. I've always been a fan of the drop leaf table. Have you done any shopping over at the CSN Stores? They have all kinds of items.

I was thinking this table would be great in a kitchen. You could put it right up against the wall in this position. Then you could pull it out and open up both leaves when you need something bigger. 

October over at YOE

My October partner for the YOE swap was Niki. I'm still busy unpacking from our trip so I'm just using the same post from YOE over here.

I'm pretty sure Niki has received her October package so I am going to go ahead and post what I sent.

Here is the basic package. I had to take a quick picture at night before I ran to the post office.

Niki said she collects rubber stamps so I added a few to her package. The two larger ones in the back were given to me awhile ago. I'm not a rubber stamper so they just sat in a box. The cute little owl one in the front I found at AC Moore. Hubby and I looked all through the store looking for owl items. Eventually we found the stamp and some fun little stickers in the scrapbooking section. I very seldom wander in that section. I'm not very good at scrapbooking. You can also see the little owl ornies I made.

I also knitted this owl cup cozie. It is supposed to be for a disposable coffee cup but it came out a bit loose. It fits nicely on several of my drinking glasses though.

I love making these friendship totes so I made one to hold all of Niki's goodies. Hope you enjoyed your package Niki.

Happy Halloween to those that celebrate. We came back early this morning from a short trip so we are just going to stay home and watch the live Ghost Hunters Halloween episode and relax before the new week/month starts tomorrow.
