Something in the mail

Hello! It's almost the weekend so I hope you all are excited. (I AM!)
Yesterday I got a package in the mail.

Tara from http://bettysvintagemusings.blogspot.com/ had a giveaway for reaching 250 followers I entered along with alot of others and won. *WEEEE*

See this cute little tin she decorated?! I love it!
And as soon as I saw the envelope I smiled because of the little starburst she drew. (I am the same way... If I am not drawing pics on shipping envelopes I am decorating them with stickers.)

~The Winnings~

I was quite suprised when I spotted the pink pendant. It is soooo sparkley and Tara made them herself out of resin. I remember her post on them months back. Also I have never owned any MAC makeup (I usually just purchase my stuff from a drug store or Walmart or something.) I always have heard reveiws on these lipsticks but... never knew a thing about them. (Still don't) But what I do know is I put it on today and WOW it lasts a good long while. (Didn't kiss off) I tried it on Mr. Coconuts cheek! "He even had to double check in the vehicle mirror" It smells good (I found that weird.. My lipsticks dont normally smell pretty.)

I wanted to say thank you to Tara & the sugar container she drew my name out of. *lol*

See you Tomorrow for Frock on Friday. I am looking forward to all you glamerous babes strutting your stuff!

Country Road Sunset Frock on Friday

Today was rather busy and I did not get to taking my FOF pics until 6:00 p.m.

The Mr. and I went and got some sandwiches to go, and drove out to where these pics were taken in the Country.

The whole time we were there only 4 cars drove by.

Oh and a train but I will tell you about that in a minute.

I have had this dress since about November last year. I purchased it and another at the same time. Both the same style just completely different colors and fabrics. Will show you the other sometime soon.

I think the dress used to have a tag which is long gone. There is a place where one once sat. But I never got the pleasure of taking a peek at it.

I got scared because there was some big rocks and one of them had a (SNAKE SKIN) on it! *Ewww*

~The little gravel road to who knows where~


TRAIN STORY
Once we got to this destination... (after eating) we were getting ready to take these pics for this post. I found where I was going to stand and then seen a train coming up the tracks and said "Oh no a train is coming, I don't want it to see me" *lol* (Meaning the people in it not exactly the train) haha

Mr. Coco says "Who cares it's just a train"

So minutes later he is taking a few photos while I trot around in my green shoes, when all of a sudden I look and see the train conductor coming out his window.... I was REALLY caught off guard when he started waving his arm back and forth yelling "WOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH"

My guys face was priceless (Staring at the conductor like he belonged in a loony bin) and I didn't know what to do. I should have waved back but I was just slightly weirded out buy a gray haired gentleman hanging his top half body out of a moving train waving and hoot and hollering.

I will admit it sort of made my evening!

~Let's bust this joint~

Shoes my man surprised me with last month.

He knew I wanted them from a thrift but I thought they were priced a little high. Knowing the store was going to be having a 50% off sale in a couple days, he went back without me knowing when he got off his work shift and bought them for me. How can a girl pass up green leather or shoes that have a name of a food?

Today I had a rather lovely day at the thrift shops... I will show you my finds very soon.

Happy Weekend Bloggie Friends.
