Stamping Copper & Brass and Spanish on the Brain

Getting ready for my stamping class at Benicia Beads on February 25.  This piece is a bit more complicated than we will attempt in the 3 hour class, but it's a great gift for when we travel to Spain in May.
Today was my day off.  I listened to a Spanish TV channel all day.  While I was stamping, washing laundry and working around the house.  My brain is fried!!!  But I'm determined to feel more comfortable with the language before we head out.  My DH is depending on me~
May you all have a non-brain-fried rest of the week!

Back to reality, but here's a few pics!

Here is our summer house in Santander, Spain. Rather unassuming and small, but we call it "home".
Here we are waving on the steps of our cottage. I'm the one in the green with the haughty expression on my face. When you are better than others, it just shows..(lol!!!!!)
Segovia! Can you believe this castle??? This really looks like something out of a movie~~~
And this post wouldn't be complete without a pic of the largest plasma TV in the world. My husband saw this at the department store "Corte Ingles" in Alcala de Henares. He's in love and asked if we could buy it...oh yes....that's so happening....

Love to you all and may your Friday be smoothly wonderful~~God bless you!

Fun Times In Spain!



Hola! We are in Spain now and this cool photo was taken in Alcala de Henares. We are having sooo much fun! Exhausted, but FUN. We've been to VillacaƱas, Cordoba, Granada, and Madrid. We also attended a REAL Spanish wedding and ate way too much food at the reception. Shrimp, prawns, lobster, steak, and more. We could not move! Tomorrow we will visit Burgos and San Sebastian. The history and old architecture is amazing! I wish you could all be here! My beautiful DD is typing this to rest my wrist-----I am so spoiled! Bless you all and have a great week!

Off to Spain!


We're leaving on a jet plane!! Tomorrow~~first to London, then to Spain. Back home May 12. If I can, I'll blog from Spain.

Sorry I've been so quiet~~my bum wrist won't allow much typing.

I love you all and wish you a peaceful blessed time while I'm gone....
