Having so Much Fun!

Well, I'm typing this using the Blogsy app on my iPad, so I'm really hoping this works! I am on holiday in Florida for just over two weeks, and we are half way through our visit.
 
When my blog buddy Sue Lelli found out we were visiting, she very kindly offered to meet up with me one day, and take me craft shopping!
Here we are outside our villa, the first of many pictures lol!
 

First off was a visit to the MFT boutique store in Eustis. We were very lucky to meet the owner Kim, who very kindly showed us around the warehouse and crafting area at the back of the shop. I have some photos on my camera, but will have to upload them when I get home! These pictures are courtesy of Sue, she was snapping away with her iPhone all day!

Me, Kim and Sue!

Look at that wall of dies, oh they had everything and I wanted it all!

Here's me being silly on their front porch! Spot my bag of goodies?

So after all that shopping, we took a lunch break in a little bistro across the road, where we had the most yummy lunch! Then, we hit the road to visit Joanns, Hobby Lobby and Michaels!

It's fair to say I will be returning to the U.K with a slightly heavier case than I arrived with lol!

Now I have to see if this will publish, and if I can work out how to link to Sue's blog and MFT Store lol!

Thanks for stopping by,

Pauline
