Mornin' All and T.G.I.F.!!!
Congrats Debi on your eBay win!!!
I won this early this morning on eBay as well. I placed my bid at 12:11 this morning, about 90 seconds before bid closing. Chip and Dale are favorites of mine, so when I saw this litho the other day, I knew I just had to go after it. After it arrives, I'm going to have it framed like the other DCL lithos I have. Only trouble is, I didn't get to sleep until after 1am this morning, and boy am I paying for it now.........![]()

I just like the last picture!!! Congrats on posts!!!!


That's a lot more blue than any Tanzanite I've ever seen. Its more like a pale Amethyst to me. Hmmm....may just be my monitor....every image I've tried to pull up is blue like that, but in person it's always been lavendar.
I can remember back in '98 when I was in Grand Cayman they were telling us how rare this stone was and how it was going to all be mined soon. So we really needed to invest then so that we were sure to get some stones. Guess they must have found another source for Tanzanite. Glad I didn't succomb to the sales pressure.
Mine is much more purple.


my tanzanites (yeah, I succumbed) have much more purple in them. I don't regret the "succumbing" though because I love the color. Mine I bought because I liked them...not for appreciation - and ,as mentioned, know nothing about buying jewelry so I buy what I like at a price I can afford - and rarely buy at that. There is just something about that color!!!!

the emeralds - I will try to educate myself before we leave, but will probably end up at a place Disney recommends and just do the "buy what I like and can afford thing".

I think I will play it safe and stick with Disney recommendation too!!

I finally got around to taking a couple photos of the holiday lights around our house. We were having some power problems earlier this week (CommEd was providing one leg at 130V and the other at 145V!!!!!) so DH had unplugged most of them. He had most of it plugged back in last night, but there are a few bushes/trees missing. If he gets them back on tonight, I'll go back out and shoot a few more photos.
I haven't really learned my new camera yet so these are taken with the default "landscape" mode and a tripod. I think the last one is overexposed - but that also has something to do with the shear number of lights on DS's playset!

This is the front of the house - we own the lots on either side, so DH does some of the trees/bushes on both sides.

This is to the right of the house - in the very back you can see our garage (which also has lights!)

This is the lot on the left of the house - the glowing area in the center is DS8's playset.

The house is much prettier in person!!! I loved seeing it!!


The dresses people are getting or have are just BEAUTIFUL ! The wenches here have some good taste. So now I am counting on you for some honest feedback.
For princess night we are dressing up for one of the formal nights right? Or is this a seperate night?
Here is a pic. of a gown I bought like 3 years ago for an event that I never wore. Also the shoes and thought I would wear the headpiece that I wore when I got married. What do you all think?
Now I would have to lose a couple of pounds or I am not fitting into this gown.![]()
