A Great Weekend

Nick and I went to San Jose this past weekend to see Coldplay. They're one of our favorite bands, so we were pretty excited. We were lucky enough to be in the section they chose to sing a song from out in the audience. Wow, that was something else!

We stayed the night and then went to the Roaring Camp Railroad. I read about it on Amy's blog a few months ago and thought it was something that Nick and I would enjoy.

We took a narrow-gauge steam train through the redwoods.

We had such a great time.

Some Etsy Fun

I just had to share my latest Etsy purchases. The first, is a great little memo pad and matching magnets from new seller Robot Scrapyard. Aren't they pretty? Alan even enclosed a pin and a little note card because I was his first sale. Very nice. The magnets came attached to a piece of very thin wood! I love it when someone takes the time with presentation. Stop by & check out the shop, there are lots of pretty chiyogami creations.


And my second little present to myself was this cute felt donut. I'm a sucker for plush food, so it's amazing that this is my first acquisition. I got this donut to put in the window over my sewing machine. I'm always switching between needles and this will give me a safe spot to store them. Check out Girl Meets Craft for some yummy felt creations. I'm tempted by the pancakes, mmmm.


Hope you have a great weekend. Nick and I are headed down to San Jose for a concert tonight. We'll be staying the night and trying to hitch a train ride tomorrow. Should be fun!
