Sammy of course has to be the center of attention at all times. Right in the middle of present opening, he decided to give himself a nice bath in front of the tree.

How was your Christmas? Did you get everything your heart desired?

Today I have part I of China Glaze’s Up & Away Collection for spring 2010.

This collection is made up of 12 cream colors that range the gamut from yellow to pink to royal purple.

Frenzy has a clear base with purple and blue micro glitter which reminds me a of cute disco ball.

These two luuuuurve the sun! Whenever I open my bedroom drapes and the sun is shining, this is where you will find them. Chewy likes the sun too, but not as much as Sammy & Squirt.

Hope you all have a fabulous Christmas!
