Hello my Pretty!..What kind of spider is this?

This is my little buddy that has been hanging out by my kitchen window ...I see her every day as I look out my window.. Can anybody tell me what kind of spider this is?

It's really quite pretty and colorful and quite big!

    Welcome back to civiliation Tania! What a shame your smores video didn't turn out! The granddaddy longlegs doesn't bother me (strange huh). I picked one up the other day by the leg and put him back out on the deck!! Impressive right??? LOL We always loved to go to my brother's cabin in the mountains of W.V way up high on a practically straight up hill. We would build fires in the firepit at night and just sit out there til way past midnight!!

    At first I didn't think it was going to play either but then it finally started!! Your daughter is beautiful - and that blond hair!!! Now, I always thought smores were somehow made w/graham crackers, a piece of hershey's chocolate and of course the marshmallow. Are these the Illinois version??? And who was the campground host?

    OMG I Love that version Tania! that's my favorite cookie! @ Susan....I guess it is kind of "cheating" smores.... but it's got to be cheaper too cause you're only buying two ingredients....the cookies already have the chocolate dipped on the bottoms....

    Well that's true and you probably are NOT going to believe what I am about to "confess" but . . . . I have NEVER eaten smores!! Honest!! I am probably a 1%er in that regard. Guess I disadvantaged childhood!! LOL

    Oh goodie! I can see it on your blog. Love the pix of your little girl enjoying her S'Mores. What a quick way to make them too.

    Can ask how you edited your slide show? Will it also edit videos too?

    Wow Susan you're BRAVE! Though Daddy Longlegs don't scare me I certainly wouldn't pick one up. So yes, very impressive! You do need to try a S'More. Put it on your bucket list. ...»

    Sharron I think that's my favorite store bought cookie too.

    Susan I have to admit I had never tried a smore either until we were over at my neighbors house and her grand kids wanted to roast marshmallows on the fire...I was so excited cause I love roasted Marshmallows Yummo! But then she bought out the Graham Crackers and Hershey's Chocolate bars and I asked what are you going to do with that?... Well was I pleasantly surprised when I got to taste one... But as Sharron says it's kinda the cheaters way of making them with the Keebler cookies cause ...»
    they already have the chocolate on them (inside and out)... I think I like this way better ... but I do love the original way too:)...as for my girls I have one blondie and one that is light brown with a slight touch of auburn in her Hair They are Twins but total opposites.... I don't think it will stay Blonde cause Hubbies hair was blonde right up to 4th grade and then it went Dark... But you just never know!... The Campground hosts Name is Buddie and he's my buddy♥

    @ Becky I had taken a bunch of pictures at the campground and I just joined them all together with some words on a program that came with my computer "Windows Live Movie Maker"... It was really fun and easy to make..:) I've never edited a video before I will have to try and see if it will do that.

    Thank you Tania. I'll have to see if that works for my videos. I just Googled and it's a free program. Yay!

    Well Tania - I mean, you ARE from down under so I guess you sorta have an excuse for not having tried smores. Now me, probably not so much - except to say I'm originally from West Va. - that's a separate state ya know - not the western part of Virginia!!

    Well it's about time you made it over here Ellen! You've got some major catching up to do. You never got to find out how to make things like this....♪ and ♫

    Just realized we seem to like spiders. I think spiders like roses too.

    LOL! Sharron.. Funny you should mention that ...My computer is in the Bedroom so I have to try and keep the laughter to a funny silent movie mode...Can you picture me hand over mouth tears rolling down my face,and a slight snicker like Dick Dastardley's side kick Muttley from the Cartoon Wacky races echoing from behind my hand... Poor baby I woke him twice last night ..;^(

    LOL Sharron and Tania. Oh I remember the days when our computer was in the master bedroom. I'd forgotten all about that. It wasn't long before we cleared an area in the basement family room for it. Had we had Hometalk back then (almost twenty years ago) I'm sure it would have happened the next morning. Great analogy Tania.

    My husband wonders what I'm laughing about sometimes when I'm reading these, but it's too hard to explain to him.

    My hubby way beyond that Ellen. I've been a member of online groups pushing twenty years now. He knows I live a second life on the computer.

    Ellen - yeah, things do loose their effect when you have to try & explain. It's not usually just that one comment but others leading up to it so there just ain't no way they'll get it. Men just don't have the same sense of humor as we do!!
