"Elkie" Arrived At His New Home

Well here he is in all his glory before leaving to go to his new home, May I present "Elkie".

What excitement Little Elkie had this weekend too! You have to go and read and/or at least go look at the pics she took! Elkie got to meet the family! Rachel C was my downstream partner and I sure was taken by the response, not only from her but from her "family", Elk family that is :) Hope she doesn't mind me using one of her pics, but this one was absolutely priceless to me...

I really had fun designing the little guy and Rachel was such a great pal to spoil! I know Elkie is happy in his new home. I do hope you'll go read all about his weekend!

As for my package, my pal says its in Vegas so I should be getting it later today when mail comes, so I'm really excited and can't wait. I'll post that as soon as possible. I do want to Thank the hostesses for such a great swap!! You gals did great!

What Mary Means

What Mary Means

You are confident, self assured, and capable. You are not easily intimidated. You master any and all skills easily. You don't have to work hard for what you want. You make your life out to be exactly how you want it. And you'll knock down anyone who gets in your way! You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection. You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive. You have the classic "Type A" personality. You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something. You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense. You definitely are a handful, and you're likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun. You are a free spirit, and you resent anyone who tries to fence you in. You are unpredictable, adventurous, and always a little surprising. You may miss out by not settling down, but you're too busy having fun to care.

What's Your Name's Hidden Meaning?

You Are a Banana

You are mellow, easy going, and a total softie on the inside. People find it really easy to get along with you. You suit most tastes. And while you're very sweet, you're not boring or ordinary. You have an attraction to the exotic, and you could show up anywhere... doing almost anything! You are spirited, energetic, and a total kick to be around. You're also quite funny. Your sense of humor is on the goofy side, and it fits you well.
