Horse riding

What happens when a little girl fall in love with horses?? She goes horse riding in the family farm of course! 

Meet my wannabe cowgirl!

And now meet the lovely horse named "Honey"

Oooops, wrong side!! 

It was a wonderful day and we can't wait to do it again!

Who is gonna tell her that she can't have a horse for Christmas??? LOL

Harman giveaway winning!

Proud of saying that I was the lucky winner of a giveaway sponsored by Harman and hosted on the blog of lovely Kayla of The Eclectic Element.

I was very intrigued by the slick black box that showed up at my door step and honestly I completely forgot that this prize was coming.

  

Inside I found a lovely burlap bag full of pellets.....oh how do I wish I didn't leave in hot Florida right now!!! This pellets are not only high efficiency, but also environmental friendly! 

Winter, can't come soon enough!! And I will make sure to share the pellets with friends and family.

  

But the real kicker was the awesome journal and pen I received in the box! They are made by completely renewable material in a process that is good for the enviroment.

What can I say? I'm a romantic geek! Maybe I should write a book.......

Sweet pink earrings part 3

For me that I'm a cupcake lover, how could I pass up this sweet pink earrings??

Got this beauties from SWDesigns as well as the chocolate version

What goes well with ice cream earrings? But cupcakes ones of course!

Did I make you hungry yet?

Sweet finds!!

I always get super excited when I get new cupcake/sweet finds, just like a child with a new toy!!

And when it's something useful, fun, super cheap and easy to find, I just have to share with all of you! What kind of blogger would I be other wise??? XO

The first item you are admiring a cupcake plate found at Dollar General for $1.50. Wasn't easy to pick one, 'cause they are all slightly different, would be fun to collect them all.

The second thing is a sundae ice cream topped pen, in blue, my fave color. And that's, my friend, is what I'm using to write down orders, thank you cards and notes.
I think I will be pretty sad when the ink runs out, but I figure that for $1 at the Dollar Tree (different from the Dollar General, because everything is $1 a piece), I can easily pick another one, probably a bit different but equally cute.

Do you have any similar picks for me? I'd love to know about it!

Do you like my new look???

Have you noticed the new clean and neat look of my blog lately?
All thanks to Bebe Chat Designs!
She redesigned my blog, gave me helpful hint and suggestion and....voila'!
What do you think?
She also gave a make over to my etsy shop! Look for your self!

New banner, new avatar and graphics!

But that's not all!!!!
The blog redesign came about few days ago, when with her help I was able to set up my very own website:

Still under construction but.....it's there!

And wouldn't have been possible without her, Bebe Chat Designs.
So to top it off, she matched my blog to it :)

THANK YOU!
