I can't begin to say what a blessing you all are to me and Lindsey. We have been so blessed by our dear blogging friends in so many ways. Not only do you open your heart and homes to us and share your joys and dreams, you also give of yourself to make others happy.
We received these lovely gifts from Holly at Girls at Heart. Holly knows Lindsey likes Hello Kitty and she knows we love craft supplies!
Aren't these tags beautiful? She shared these adorable little decals with us too. So sweet. We have to find something worthy of them to put them on. I love those little bluebirds! Thank you, Holly!
I got a special surprise in the mail from Deb. It was for my birthday! Isn't she sweet to remember my birthday? She collected these items knowing that I would like them. It's so awesome that people read our blog and know exactly what we like!
I commented on her post where she showed this little kitten planter that I had one in pink, one in blue and one in green. She thought I should have the yellow one too! I must admit they make a very cute litter.
This vintage poodle tea towel was from Deb also. By the way, I am still virtually walking to Deb's house. As of today I have now walked 155 miles! I am getting up into northern Missouri, but I still have Iowa to walk through!
Elizabeth of Creative Breathing is having a wonderful swap. She is asking anyone who would like to participate to send her a 5 inch square block that you have decorated in your style, then she will send you a square she made. Once she gets everyone's block she will make a banner with the blocks to hang in her craft room. I was so thrilled today when I received my block from her!
Isn't that adorable?! And, she decorated the back too! Too cute! I love both sides! Thank you, Elizabeth!
One of our readers who lives in Missouri came to the Scrap Nook about a month ago hoping to run into Lindsey. You may remember Lindsey telling about it in an earlier post. I had the pleasure last Saturday of getting to visit with her when she was down for a visit and came back to the store. She also sent us a lovely box with items that she'd found at sales that she new we'd like. This sweet little motto print just thrilled me! You know how I love these! She also sent me a mushroom tidleywink game and Lindsey some Barbie items. Thank you, Michelle, I enjoyed our visit so much!
Like I said, we are so blessed to know each and every one of you. All who read our blog and those we have come to know, are so special to us.

It is a blessing to be able to share what we like with others who have similar interests. It's a wonderful world where we can talk and make friends and enjoy each other's company on a daily basis. In this world of so much busy going on, I am so thankful for those of you who reach out to us with kindness. Thank you to all who read and leave comments. It truly warms my heart.
It is my heartfelt wish that you all have a joyful week! Twyla
