Guess what I'm watching?

Well, my absolutely adorable friend Amanda was thinking of me last week. She came across a treasure at the Salvation Army, and plucked it up for me!

I got it in the mail today....isn't it so cute all wrapped up?

Can you guess what's inside? ... Tada!!!

Hubby and I popped it in. We are dying. These guys really can sing, but oh the HAIR and the CLOTHES! We are having a blast (from the past!).
So I told Amanda maybe I'll learn a routine from the video and record it for her!
How much will y'all pay me if I record myself dancin' to NKOTB and post it on my blog?
Just wonderin'.
Thanks Amanda...you totally made me smile today!

How sweet!! I am so jealous! I totally loved that video back in the 80s/90s when I was just a young gal. ;) I was soooo in love with Jordan and totally got all jealous when he was on the video walking/talking/whatev with some other chic with huge bangs. Harumph!

Enjoy your video!!!

Oh wow, wonder where that came from! Come to think of it I used to have one of those too:) I also used to have the very first VHS video tape they made. I am pretty sure my mom threw them away. Hope you sang way loud while breaking out the moves!

That is just too funny. Oh, how I loved New Kids on the Block. That is so embarrassing, but so true. A little trip down memory lane for sure.

What a great gift! :)

I sent you an email but not sure if you recieved it or not. I am your Birthday SWAP partner (well, I am buying for you!) I was hoping to get the names of your children, I have a gift idea and if I can get it done with all four of your kids names I am going to try, it may not work, but it might. My email is: jackson_ml@hotmail.com or you can just check out my blog and send me a message there. Look forward to getting to know you! Michelle :)

Hand Made for Fall - A party and a Giveaway!

I've been a busy girl! I have been wanting to do a giveaway for Fall, and when my fab friend Heidi revealed that her Monthly Craft Challenge for October would be Fall-themed crafts, I thought "YES! I will do a giveaway of Fall items - handmade by me!" So today I'm linking up with Heidi , and introducing my Handmade For Fall Giveaway as I show you what I've made for Heidi's party ! Sound good? First, a while back I showed you some coasters that I made, but it was clear back when I first started blogging, so I'm going to show you again with this new seasonal set! This idea has been floating around blog land, and I've seen several different variations. Here's how I do it. You will need: paper napkins, 4x4 ceramic tiles, 4x4 cork squares, MOD PODGE (what else?), sponge brushes (not shown), and polyurethane (not shown).
