So after all the crazy snow in Jerome, guess what Chucklebutt and I were greeted with two Sundays ago?

SNOW!!  Your eyes do not deceive you — that is snow in Apache Junction.  The desert.  Where cacti grow and it’s going to be 90 degrees on Wednesday.  Two weeks ago we had snow and now we’re reaching temperatures common to Hell.  Crikey!

I feel like I’m living in Colorado.

The Superstitions are gorgeous!  Great pic Chuck!

If we had woken up earlier than our per usual 12 in the afternoon, we would have seen a whole lot more.  By 3:00, all of it had melted.  It was a very surreal moment.

During the month of February, I participated in two swaps.  Heather’s annual Petite Inspiration Box Swap is always one of my favorites.  I haven’t had a chance to take pictures of what I received, but the following are the two I made for my partners.

This was Anita’s.

And this one was Wanda’s.  I hope that the gals enjoyed them as much as I enjoyed making them.

The other swap I participated in was Julie’s Canvas Collage Swap.  Mama Puff and I are getting ready to head to beautiful Manhattan Beach to participate in Kim’s Moulin Rouge event.

We are super excited and have been playing dress up for the past three days.  It is going to be so decadent I can’t wait.

Anyhoo, I had to make 12 3X3 collage squares.   Spoiler alert!  These are mine:

Happy Monday everyone!
PS: I realized yesterday that my blog banner says Merry Christmas.  I promise to change it as soon as Chucklebutt gets back from Daytona.  In the meantime, be sure to check out Mama Puff’s blog and all her adventures with Buddy.  😀
