Mom's Got a Trunk / I Got Steps

Mabel Lou here. My new wooden steppies came last week! Whoo Hoo! I still pretend to need Mom to help me place my feet but I think she's caught me getting in bed by myself a few times! It is much less scary to do it by myself when I know the steps won't turn over on me but I like to make the Momster feel useful most days.

Here they are:

My creek uncle even took the carpet off my old ones! Then Mom got the bright idea that we could use the old ones for me to get in and out of the car so we went over to Chloe's and fished them out of the recycle bin. Mom's theory was since she's always with me when I get in the car (cause I can't drive...yet), they would be O.K. Only, they are not as tall as the car and as soon as I hit the top step, the rolled under the car and freaked me out!

So Mom is hoping to ask for a 2nd set of wood ones...

Now I'm supposed to tell you all about Mom's new trunk. She's going to be showing it off on the Facebook at some place called Artisans Open Market. It will be August 28 - 30 and she's going to have her beads and lots of her jewelry. So if you are into that kinda thing, check her out.

She's even having a contest to give away two gift certificates. One of them is for $40 on Facebook. She wants ya'll to  share her fanpage thingy > SHARE the original post and you are entered there.

And here on the blog even though this is MY post, she's got a  $25 gift certificate via rafflecopter (You can repeat certain entries for MORE chances to win!):
