Tucson Gem and Mineral Show

This morning I gave $5 to each child and we headed out to the Tucson Gem and Mineral Show to find treasures.  From what I understand, it is the largest gem and mineral show in the world, with venues all over the city and it is here for two weeks every February.  There were so many beads, stones, and gems, for such good prices, it made me say to myself, "I could make my own jewelry for so cheap!!!...but I wont because I'm lazy."  This very cute owl caught my eye so I bought him!  Once I got him home I realized why he caught my eye.  He looks so much like the little clockwork owl from the movie, Clash of the Titans!

Mustachioed Mister ACEO

Now with his luxuriously glorious mustache, no one would dare make fun of his thin little girly lips ever again.

Three Toads ACEO

"As Eliza dipped her head under the water, one of the toads sat on her hair, a second on her forehead, and a third on her breast, but she did not seem to notice them, and when she rose out of the water, there were three red poppies floating upon it."  -Hans Christian Andersen
