My Mom is Joining the 21st Century

I love my mom to death...

but she is not the most

tech-savvy person around.

The other day, she surprised me by

telling me that she bought a Kindle.

My mom is an avid reader, so it makes sense

to have whatever book she wants to read

in the palm of her hand.

I was just taken back by her techie-purchase.

So moving on,

I was skimming through the

Freebies for Crafters blog,

and clicked on the blog of Christina in Vancouver, WA

called The Sometimes Crafter.

She has a ton of free tutorials

and happened to have a tutorial for a Kindle Cover.

Needless to say, I had to make one

for my mom and surprise her with it.

On a little side note...

I had a great score at

Goodwill the other day.

I bought a picnic basket for $1.99.

I spent a little bit of time today

making a new liner for it and sprucing it up some...

Kaelin and I had a great picnic lunch at the park today!!!
