Flat Ruby Cate...

Ok, so you've all heard of Flat Stanley yes? No? Seriously? Where the hell do you live, under a rock? LOL

Anyhoo... while enjoying some Momma & Ruby time this morning as the twins took their naps I was staring at my daughter, no bow in her hair, adorable outfit courtesy of a 'hand me up' from my friend Krista, and Bear was no where to be found, she was so content to just color with me, it was kinda nice... I loved her so much like this, not the typical Ruby that you all see every day online, but the every day, relaxed just hangin' with Momma Ruby. So, with crayons at my disposal, I did my best to try to capture the beauty that I saw in front of me. I began to let the crayons take control of my hands and the end result was:

FLAT RUBY CATE!

hee hee

So, I figured, how cute is this, it's how I saw my daughter this morning, my rendition of her in her cute patchwork shirt & little capri jeans & no bow & no Bear... and I thought, " Ok, if Flat Stanley can travel, WHY NOT RUBY??"



I called my good friend Karen up & asked what she thought of the idea of me starting a 'Flat Ruby Cate' journey with the first stop being North Carolina? She LOVED the idea, so first thing tomorrow, little miss Flat Ruby Cate is on her way to N.C. to visit her friend GWEN!


From there, Karen will then send Flat Ruby Cate to another fellow blogger of her choice & then so on & so forth! ISN'T THAT NEAT????? WOOOOO HOOOOOO I LOVE IT!!!!!



All I ask is that whoever gets Flat Ruby Cate, to please just take one picture of yourself with her to show that yes, indeed... she arrived and POST SAID PICTURE ON YOUR BLOG!!! =)
I CAN'T WAIT to see how far Flat Ruby Cate can travel, hopefully all around the WORLD!




So, the trip starts tomorrow & everyone PLEASE feel free to follow along & see where Flat Ruby Cate will end up next! =) As I receive updates on her whereabouts, I'll be sure to POST THEM RIGHT HERE!



Happy Travels Flat Ruby Cate!

lol sorry luv *WINK* but I can't HELP IT!
It's a sickness... the creative 'gene', also in this 'italian pool' is the 'cooking gene', the 'LOUDMOUTH gene' and the 'TALKATIVE gene'...

I'm sure Flat Ruby Cate will have a BLAST with you! But now the question is, where will you send her on her NEXT ADVENTURE?? =)

SO MUCH CREATIVE FUN!
Honestly Karen, what would you do WITHOUT ME? lol
