{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

Make Me Smile Monday

Well these grandbabies right here sure know how to make a Nana smile!




Fresh out the garden always makes me smile! (Yeppers, that would be some of my parsley on top) IT IS ALL ABOUT PRESENTATION LADIES!



I must say I am a kid at heart. Love me some Minnie Mouse? What about you? Who is your favorite Disney Character?



This picture makes me smile...actually tickles me! My motherinlove and fatherinlove had just celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary and was joking around about going to the beach to stay for another honeymoon! They were going home actually and with their GROWN CHILDREN! LOL!



And if you really want to smile try you some of these! YUM!


Watching my grandbabies singing for the Lord surely makes me smile!



This big ole catfish caught out of my pond really made me smile---especially after he came out of the frying pan!


My daughter sent this picture to me and I love it. My oldest grandgirl and her dad having a milkshake together....SMILE!


Awe...I just came across this recently while sorting pictures on my computer and had to share.

Our church was being renovated and so before the carpet was going to be put down all the members had the opportunity to write something on the cement floor. This was for my little family....




This picture truly makes me smile....This is my youngest granddaughter with her great-grandparents. The one on the left of course was when she was so small. The one on the right was recently. Her great-grandmother recently went to be with our Lord. I just thought these two pictures side by side would be a great keepsake for our little granddaughter for years to come.



I found this on the web and just love it. This was how my granny made me and so many others  feel and this is how I want to my grands and others to feel about me. Brings a smile to me today!

 I hope you are full of smiles today!

Hugs and blessings,  Cindy

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
