Oooh, how I used to love the smurfs (and still do), I have the sheets to prove it. I remember I couldn’t wait for Saturday mornings so I could sit in front of the TV with my Lucky Charms and get pulled into the Smurf’s village of mushroom homes and the evil land of Gargamel and his cat…..what was his name?? It’s on the tip of my tongue! It started with an “A”, I believe. Look at how carefree and happy they all are!

I wanted to be Smurfette! She was fabulous….living in that land of boy smurfs, being adored and lusted after (lusted? LOL).

And, of course…wise old Papa Smurf….overseeing his village….I love it!

I was getting “smurf-sick” because I heard that there was a release of the Smurfs DVD, like the first 15 episodes…all on one DVD!! Well, I have been looking for it and have not been able to find it! One place had it but they were sold out. Boo Hoo!!

What children’s character’s did you used to love?

My friend Stephanie and I were just remembering how much we loved our cabbage patch dolls and My Little Pony. And we both agreed that Rainbow Brite was the ultimate must have!! I have those sheets too!!

Isn’t she awesome? Those boots! Yum!

So all that talk about Rainbow Brite, got me wanting a rainbow colored hat for Lilyana. I seriously just put in the request 2 days ago and this awesome seller on etsy, Savannah Lane Designs finished a hat for me in less than 48 hours! And the hat is STUNNING! Can’t wait to put it on her….look at this beauty!

There is no way you are seeing this rainbow hat and not feeling jealous because you want one for yourself. No way! Get over to her shop and order one up already! It is scrumptious!

Not that anyone remembers, but that Summer in the City quilt is slowly but surely coming along….I need someone to light a fire under my booty to get that blanket going! It’s hard to stay on task with that thing! I have a few other sewing projects under way…I’m in the process of re-vamping my lilyeden etsy shop
so stay tuned!!

It’s almost Friday! Enjoy the day~

Azrael! I found your blog via the wordpress tags…great sheets! Love them. Do you remember the snorks? I think that is what they were called. They had bent things on their heads.
Good times, good times.

yes! AZRAEL! I hate when I can’t remember! Thank you guys for helping me out on this one!

I think Smurfette was probably more irritated than anything, huh? All those smurf boys with their strange little “personalities”. Of course she never minded “Hefty” smurf though, did she?? Mhm.

Fa la la la la la… well when I type it looks like a Christmas carol, but in my head it is the Smurf theme song. Love how the high schoolers at church think we are so old, but then are totally loving all the same things that were from our “old” childhood. I guess Smurfette was a bit of a Hoochie Momma. Didn’t dawn on me in my innocent years.
