I was putting together my son's medals for sports to put into a frame. I had a HUGE plastic bag on the bed that I was using for trash, and had a ton of medals and ribbons on the bed surrounding me. The bed was a mine field of crinkly clanging noise...
Allen jumped up on the bed and tip-toed around the mess to jump into the bag. He turned around-around-around until he plopped and played punching bag inside. (BTW, the only trash in there was the cellophane wrapper the frames came in) I was sitting there, so I didn't mind him in the bag. He settled down and just watched what I was doing and a few minutes later, Pouncer entered the room, and jumped up onto the bed to see what I was doing. First, he scared himself by landing on the medals. HISS! Poofy tail and raised back! Then he stood there unsure what to do. Stood there in the pefect Halloween cat arched back... then Allen popped his head up from the bag and..... HISS! Pouncer was completely spooked! Still Pouncer had no idea what to do, he just stood there looking like a Halloween cat. Then Allen moved again and Pouncer went flying out the bedroom and Allen followed after.
Man I wish I had time to grab my camera! :D
Here's one finished frame - my son's birthday's tomorrow, and I figured these would make a nice birthday gift. Sorry the picture's blurry... its the best it would come out with the glass. I have one for track, and one for cross country.

Thank goodness I used to be a picture framer! I had everything but the frame - and that was only $3.88 at ACMoore last weekend! :D I love being cheap but looking like I put out some serious money! LOL
I have still to do the other one, so lets see how badly I spook Pouncer today! ;)
