Maryshka

is something NEW that I learned today. We went to our weekly story time at B&N...soooo glad to be back to that. We had a BREAK for the holidays. We heard some GREAT stories and then a very cute story about The Littlest Maryshka. A Maryshka is Russian ( a Nesting doll). I know that I have seen these 'dolls' before but I never knew what they were. So CUTE!! Ryan was able to make his very own. He seemed to have a great time coloring the first 3, but then he colored the rest of them the same color and he hurried, so they did not come out as well...guess he lost interest!

I also have to BRAG about the awesome deal I got at Williams Sonoma. I LOVE Williams Sonoma. I have BEEN needing a Hostess set for about ummmmm almost 10 years now and I finally got ONE! IT was 4 pieces and even had the PIE SERVER!!! ahhhh!!! soooo, the Original price was $150 and I got it for $35! WHAT A DEAL!!!! Anyone get any good deals lately?

Ryan being really Silly!
