Rainbows, a hat & giveaways!!

Good morning!! :) the past few days have not only been INCREDIBLY hot but there have been storms in the area. Well, last night, the storms were HERE!!!
Photobucket
very unusual, especially for the summer (dry) months but we have higher mountains all around us here that usually keep all the weather (& clouds) away! Not only did it storm here last night but the one storm brought HUGE raindrops!! DH went out for
3 seconds, to close a window which just required a push, and he came in
completely soaked!! lol i did manage to get a few pictures of the
rainbow, in between storms!
Photobucket
it was actually a double rainbow but the second one was barely
noticeable to the nake eye and didn't show up on the photos too well.
Photobucket
i also have a few more pictures to share from the weekend!! :)
This one is the cowbay hat ceramic (for lack of a better word), it's almost life sized! Lol
Got it for only a buck, because the last owner, had it outside where i will probably put it, as well! hehe
Photobucket
My sweetie saw this vehicle, one of the days his brother was visiting and they both came home and told me about it. Since i almost always have the camera, we were lucky enough to see it again! DH's face was ADORABLE when he saw it again, he was so excited! lol
Photobucket
It's a 29 Ford Model A Roadster (convertible) pickup truck!! i LOVE the color!! :)
Photobucket
Isn't it GORGEOUS!!!?! Has a small block Chevy engine with automatic transmission!! :)
Photobucket
When our ship rolls in, it will be his!! AHhhhhhhhhhhhhh to D-R-E-A-M!!! hehe
Yesterday, i got a package in the mail!!!!WOOHOO!! oh how i LOVE my blog sisters!! :) (that's not a bad wig, by the box, it's just Coco!! lol)

Photobucket
As i dug into the packing materials i found the true TREASURE!!! This BEAUTIFUL bone china tea set for one that i won from one of the blog giveaways!!!! it is absolutely LOVELY!!!
Photobucket

Your pictures of the mountains look very familiar! It was pretty with the rainbows and dark clouds I bet. Now that old car was cool too. I've always wanted a old gangster style car.

And what a nice present to get in the mail. Congrats to lucky you!!

Great Bloggy love.
