I have a new BFF......

Yeppers..I do. Her name is Juliet. A redhead. A little straggly, but nothing that a hot cuppa tea and a little pampering wouldn't fix...

No, it's not another pup..although that would be wonderful..nope. Lulu and Braxton think the living arrangements are just fine as it is...2 pups, a dedicated "staff" of 3 who cater to their every need...and 2 chickens in the next yard to bark at...

Yeeeeah, life is good.

No, this is another BFF..and here she is...


Her name is Juliet and she was purchased with a gift card that was expiring in a few days...so she really didn't cost a thing...and that's the best price...


{before make-over..}


ta da!


{after}

Now, I know some of you are probably thinking...What the heck?? But she made me ...smile.

And I thought, maybe I could use her for the carpool lane....I mean, she's pretty big. Her hands are about the same size as mine.

OK, I don't know why exactly I got her except...she makes me smile...and that's all I know...and all that matters.



And I like her philosophy...

"Simply become who you are"..

My inner-child is very happy...and that too make me smile.....

An oldie young at heart. I'm with you, I love stuffed animals. She is cute especially after the makeover. Am I slow? What does BFF stand for?
Like your new Title. You're clever at this stuff. I'm still learning.

So, now you'll be looking for her Romeo? She's just too cute and her bow really sets off her nice red hair! I'm with you; whatever makes you smile is well worth whatever the cost! I have huge smile wrinkles; and, I'm thankful for them because they show I'm happy! Watch out for the policemen; they may want to stop you so they can get a date with Juliet!

Love Juliet's makeover!

Julie said...

She makes me smile too, and laugh! Some might think the purchase silly, but I don't! We must play, even as grown ups.

Especially love the flower!

Been catching up on your blogs here. First I guess I missed your fish. Don't see them now. Second you have had some funny posts. Third Juliet is too cute. Get her a booster seat and she will look like a normal size person sitting in the car with you.

Wanna see what I've been up to ??
