{March is well under way}

February days are now gone and March has officially kicked in.   I finally purchased a new monthly focus board.  We ventured out for a day date which included a movie. I love our day dates. I will give my honest review about the movie for those interested. I wanted to see this movie as it was based on a true story. I did enjoy the movie but oh my, it was a tear jerker from the get go! It ended good but mercy! Let's just say that I am thankful that no one was sitting close enough to see my tear stained face. I am glad that I saw it but I am good for a while on sad movies, even if they do end good!   My oldest daughter, her husband and their son participated in the Spartan race which is a series of obstacle courses that challenge. They done so well. As you can see from the pictures it gets pretty muddy!  My three daughters participate each year in the Gate River Run. I love it that they do this together. They have so much support & encouragement from all the onlookers. I am just

How about a little Easter?

I have been so busy these days preparing for my niece's upcoming wedding that I almost let the Easter Holiday pass me by without a little decor!  Praise the Lord for my oldest grandgirl...she helped Nana save the day with her help.

She decorated my Easter tree for me this year...Just look how cute.

 The best money I've spent in a while was on this little white tree. Half price after Christmas and we are enjoying decorating it for holidays.


Love the pretty eggs.

The beads was another half price item after Christmas!

Some of my eggs are actually painted wood and some are glitter Styrofoam eggs.



One of favorite mini tea sets. Sits at the bottom of the Easter tree.



Don't you just love it?

Another pretty little tea set. I also have the creamer and sugar dish to match. 


How adorable are these glass eggs?


Love my yard sale bunny plate.



He is so adorable!

I received this good smelling candle for a gift recently and love it!



Of course it might have something to do with the name of it. LOL!



Awe...a great Thrift store find...LOVE Snowbunnies.


A little story behind this cutie. The price was marked $7.99. I know that this particular one usually runs around $19.99 or so. I decided to ask if I could get this marked down as I felt this was too high for a Thrift store. Usually Goodwill will NOT mark things down but I figured it will not hurt to ask and all they can say is NO! She asked and I got it for $1.99!


I call this one...Lazy Bunny! I found these at the Dollar Tree. Bought one for each place setting for my table.


LOVE this plate. Actually found two of these when I was on my Mountain trip in February.




Well, the hubby and I will be coloring Easter eggs on Saturday...yep we still do this at my house even though our children are grown and gone. Some things I just can't quit doing!!!! Stay tuned next week for tablescape.....

Sneak peek...........


Happy Easter everyone! Remember, HE LIVES!

Hiding the Ugly Hot Water Heater

 I shared that I wanted to hide my ugly hot water heater in my laundry room with you a few weeks ago. It just stuck out like a sore thumb. But after all it is a hot water heater right? So my man took a piece of wood (not real wood) but it worked and built a frame for me. So now to see if it would fit and it did. I painted it white and did not like the texture it had even after two coats of white. (rule of thumb...you get what you pay for and the wood was cheap) But I wasn't going to let it whip me!  Found some contact paper at Walmart in the gray and white. Covered the front with the contact paper and loved the look. The top was covered with a piece of painted wood as well and worked perfect to place this on top... And this.... Added a clothes basket in the corner and here was the top.... Yep, no longer an eye sore to me! Went perfect with my gray walls and gray and white floor. Remember the wood tray I bought at a yard

{Another Fun Filled Weekend}

I hope you all are doing well. I am trying to wind down for the night and thought I would try and get a post out. Girls, by this time I am in my fat clothes and recliner smashing that remote control!   Marty and I kicked off our weekend by having a little fun food as I call it,  "charcuterie" style out by the pond. Of course I always fix more than we need or eat but it sure was good.  Two of our granddaughters had dance recitals over the weekend so we got to watch them perform and oh my! They were just the cutest things ever.  We were blessed to be able to see them perform. Then we celebrated a birthday for this sweet grandgirl! She was excited about being double digits . And besides all the fun from the weekend I was able to see some of my pretties in bloom.  Now to enjoy a cup of coffee.... I hope that you all have a wonderful, blessed week.  Hugs and blessings, Cindy

{Happy 46th Wedding Anniversary To Us}

  Happy October everyone! I wanted to pop in today and share a few pictures. Marty and I celebrated our 46th wedding anniversary on September 23.  Oh it seems so long ago that we said "I Do". We started dating when I was 16. Married at 18 and began a family at 20. Needless to say we have surely grown up together. Praise the Lord that we are growing "Older" together.  We decided since it had been about 8-9 years since we had been to Savannah, Ga. that we would take a weekend there and just enjoy a scenic luncheon cruise.  We enjoyed walking River street and sightseeing, shopping and eating of course! It was a nice get away and perfect for us as we are simply two imperfect people that fit perfectly together.  I did spot Santa while in Savannah though! YES, I love Christmas so I had to stop at several Christmas shops! We've had outings that have kept us quite busy and we have surely been blessed to be able to attend our grands functions and our little outings toget
