SPF - Happy Birthday to Kris . . .

Happy Birthday to you,

Happy Birthday deeear Kris,

Happy Birthday to you!

Today's assignment was fun and allowed me the opportunity to act a little silly! Here was the Birthday Queen's homework:

1. Take a picture of something you own that you’re ‘gifting’ me with.
(You don’t really have to give it to me, it’s a ‘CYBER’ gift - so go hog wild!)
I never-ever have cash on me, but one of my customers gave it to me to buy some CM products. Pictured here for your cyber present is a day out shopping with all three meals paid for (no cooking!), topped off with a huge pile of kisses for you! My Hubby always encourages me to shop more (can you believe that?), but I really have to be in the mood to cut loose . . .

2. Write 3 words that describe me on paper and take a picture of it.This is a fabulous idea :) Handwriting says alot about a person! I am a doodler and created this artwork using a ballpoint pen and lipgloss! Now that's creative, baby - LOL! Since I have just started reading
Random & Odd, the SPF Queen, I don't know that much about the birthday girl; however, she replied to my Flickr message and was very helpful. I really appreciate people that are prompt with replies and that lend a helping hand to everyone! Her "pay it forward" theory is not just a fabrication - we should all be more positive this way.

3. A self portrait of you doing a dorky face in the mirror.











Since I already looked like crap after a long day, I decided to go for broke and messed up my hair for some really stupid shots. I snuck away with Loo's "Birthday Queen" crown that is so tight it squeezes your brains out. I suffer greatly for these silly face shots, I hope you enjoy them :)

The whole taking a picture in the mirror sucked, so I turned my new baby (Nikon D50) around for a few shots. Anyone that knows me in real-life would laugh b/c I am infamous for always taking my own picture - if I didn't there wouldn't be any pictures of me! Eventually, Loo came in the room and busted me wearing her crown and I got lectured by a three-year-old - LOL! "Mooooom, that's my princess crown!"

I'm loving those pictures. They are so funny.

Oh, and can you pass that Olive Garden GC my way? I love that place so much.

I love your gift! That was a good choice for Kristine, because what you might not know about her is... IF she has extra money, she spends it on the kids. She's a great mom like that. Glad you played! :-)

Ah, maybe you should gift Kristine the Birthday Princess crown, and then have the 3 year old go redeem it.
Yeah, like Kristine needs another mouth to feed.

The writing of the words is cool!

I played, but you already know.

Hasn't this been Fun!
