Fantasy Jewelry Box Review and Giveaway (CLOSED)

I had the chance to review my choice piece of jewelry and chose a pair of earrings, Sherrie's Exquisite Pink & Clear Cubic Zirconia Heart Drop Earrings. When I received them, my first thought was "How pretty they are!" Then, when I took them out of the package, I noticed one of them had a stone missing. So, I contacted Fantasy Jewelry and was told they would send another pair, for me to keep the first pair. The second pair came and they're perfect. Though they are a little heavier than what I usually wear, I really like them. Customer Service is great with this company!


These are the earrings I chose:

I also found this bangle I liked:

Camping Trip at Sugarloaf (Greers Ferry)

D and I both took off last Friday and Monday. Friday morning before we left the house, he had a call from a salesman he talked to earlier in the week. They'd had a used jetski to be traded in. Of course, D wanted it. We went to the lake and got set up. Friday night, we decided we could afford it if they still had it Saturday morning. We found out Saturday it was still there; so, of course, we went to Searcy to look at it.

Needless to say, we got it. Between riding it, swimming, and riding in the boat, we were on the water about 3 1/2 hours Saturday afternoon and also Sunday. I don't usually burn; but, I did this time. Yes, I used sunscreen. We're to go back up to the lake Sunday to get the jetski and, of course, ride it (weather permitting). Needless to say, I'll pick up some higher-rated sunscreen Saturday!

Ebony Arose

Ebony Arose

By

Vicky J. Siegrist

This book has a lot that life has: ups/downs, happiness/sadness, and it’s also good against evil.

Ebony knows nothing of how things are until she’s forced to leave the only home she’s ever known. Up until then, she has been unloved and beaten her whole life. Her life does a total turn-around when she meets up with Mary and Ben.

When Nicholas betrayed Ebony at their wedding when her ‘father’ appeared and told his lies, I was furious. However, at the end, he did redeem himself.

“Ebony Arose” is published by the Dorrance Publishing Co, Inc.

The book can be found, on their website:

http://dorrance.stores.yahoo.net/ebonyarose.html

Now for the statement as required:

"Arcane Exodus: The Desert Rose"

“Arcane Exodus: The Desert Rose” by S. G. Gowing was a good book.
In the past two years, I have discovered the paranormal genre. I enjoy books that have one or more of the following: elves, dragons, dwarfs, mages, shape-shifters, or vampires. This book has several of them. It contains magic as well.

This story was different in that it took a ‘normal’ teenager and without any warning she was given powers of a unique race, the K’aeralei. The K’aeralei gain memories and fighting skills from previous K’aeralei. It was strange Ria having flashbacks to memories of another she had never met or heard of.

“Arcane Exodus: The Desert Rose” is published by the Dorrance Publishing Co, Inc.
The book can be found here.

Mt Magazine Camping Trip


We did the camping thing this past weekend at Mt Magazine. The view was great except for the haze. When we left Sunday, we stopped in Russelville. We decided we'd like to go back up the mountain, as it was 10-15 degrees cooler there.

I enjoy camping, photography, spending time with family and friends.

As for the camping, we bought a used popup camper in August and used it three times last year. As of now we've scheduled two trips, Mt Magazine in June and Devil's Fork in July.

As for the photography, I usually use the auto settings. When I'm just taking pictures to be taking them, I try using different settings; however, when taking pictures of the girls or something I want to be able to keep, I use the auto settings.
