Backing up to December 24th, 2008

December 24, 2008 was my birthday! Bob was super excited to give me my birthday gift. It was something he knew I would love. The best part of it, he did it all by himself.

He has been hanging around the local craft store since it contains a TRAIN department (We'll get to that in another blog entry sometime). As he was going through the store, he came across little WEEBLE like figures. They were blank wood of course and since he knows I collect Weebles and LOVE the Beatle's Yellow Submarine he carefully painted the four weeble life figures into custom Weebles for me. The photo you see also contains my Beatle's Yellow Submarine cookie jar. I just love these! Funny thing was he painted these while I was in the house one day; my painting class had been cancelled and I was at home, so he made me go upstairs and play the WII while he went crazy painting for 2 hours (I didn't know this of course) what an ultimate gift!!!!

And as an added note, I'd like to introduce you to a new Etsy friend who has a blog and was sweet enough to post my Etsy shop in her blog: http://lilbitof.blogspot.com/ if you have time check it out!!!!
