I got skipped....

If you read my inspiring status updates and look at my fabulous photos on Facebook.... ;)

Then, you may remember this bottle of wine. It is called "Ali."

I found it on a trip to the wine store and I couldn't pass it up. If it had been called "Assy" I would have bought a case. (For those of you that don't know....Mrs. Short is also AKA...Assy to many people. Lovely name.... ;)

Back on track...so, my aunt is a talented lady. I was showing it off on Thanksgiving Day and she said "want me to take it home and put a cross on it?"

Well hello?! What do YOU think?

So she took it. I didn't expect to see it again at Christmas...especially with a cross on it!

These cross bottles are amazing. She normally puts them on smaller bottles....they are simply beautiful. She sells them in North Texas and a few other spots. Total unique treasures....
I know the picture is blurry....but, it was the best I could do. The pictures don't really do it justice.

Looking for just the right place....a perfect home for it in the Shorty home. I am sure it will make a few stops before finding it's final resting place.

My title "I got skipped" is referring to the talent gene. My family has a silversmith, people that sew, those who can paint, a professional guitar player, a doctor, master gardeners, a computer whiz....I could go on.

The talent gene skipped me. But hey...that is OK. I can clean a toilet like no one else on the planet. And I can fold a perfect bath towel. ;)

Thanks again Tammy....I LOVE my bottle.
