A Sunny Sunday Afternoon...

Well I gotta say it was a pretty peaceful day.. Perfect fall weather clear blue skies, nice warm breeze. the tide was high and the water sparkled as if someone had sprinkled it with diamond dust :) I could live in this weather all year round.  Ray & I made dinner, he made the roaster and of course I made the rice, salad, tostones and beans. My sister and her fiance' stopped by and joined us for a really pleasant Sunday dinner.


However, I did miss out on Lily's first parade. She was pretty excited her mom got her a lyre that she could wear on her wrist like a cuff. I can't wait to get the email loaded with pictures

I made the tags out of half of the folder.

I had the chance this morning before my walk to load some pictures of a album insert I made using a manila folder that I dolled up a bit. Well going to relax a lil before bed. nightie night folks.

yummy cupcakes

Awesome Cupcake Goodness.. yummy chocolate stout ~ cream cheese frosting topped with a luscious strawberry. My daughter made these on Friday for her neighbor

Where does time go?

Whew~ the seasons are upon us...

after the first week of October is over it seems that you can't blink your eyes or else you will miss Christmas. So I have started making all my Christmas cards and holiday decor. I am preparing my shopping list, which will be short because I intend to hand make all the presents this year this year I vow to be right on top of things. No way I will be rushing back & forth as I did these past two Christmases ago.

Getting back on track...

WOW it has been a long time since my last post, which I recall being very determined to keep up my post/ramblings NOT, but I have arrived anew and ready to post everyday. I guess I needed some time to find my new place in this world, because I was feeling a little lost and confused. So many things have happened happy & sad things, but it all has made my little family stronger. My illness was so unexpected It caught us all by surprise. My husband and children have been so supportive I love them all madly. Every time I think of causing them sadness it breaks my heart and makes me work harder on staying well and following doctors orders to the letter. Another thing was that it made me appreciate my family more and all the things that come with a family, which by the way has grown by three. My daughter brought a house in another town which I had mixed feelings about, I mean I was so happy for them, it’s a lovely house in a picturesque neighborhood. But I knew that I was going to miss them more then words can say. My grand daughter has gotten so tall in this past year that she passed her mom as her mom did me, how funny.
Lets see, well I have made many friends in the crafting world, very nice giving artist who love their craft as much as they love to share it. How fortunate I have been. I have learned many things. I can’t wait to show you! I’ll be back tomorrow~
