{Happy Resurrection Day}

I hope that you all have enjoyed this beautiful Easter Sunday. He is risen! I wanted to end the month of March in sharing a few of my favorite photos from the month.  Celebrated my favorite grandsons birthday. Conner is 18 now!  Our beautiful Mallory Grace all decked out for the prom. The youngest grands (sisters) were flower girls in their uncle's wedding. The oldest one was in her element of dress up. The younger one, not so much. THAT HAIR BAND ITCHED HER HEAD she said!  I purchased a new pair of wedges that I love. I am always skeptical about ordering shoes or clothing but read the reviews on Amazon and went for it. Love the color and the style.  The youngest grand loves to take selfies and play with the filters.  Marty colored Easter eggs. He always colors at least a dozen every year. He always says he's doing it for the grands but I know he does it because of the inner child in him! LOL! I went with the little ones to Disney on Ice and we had the best time. I think I enjo

Tuesday Toots

So much to toot about in life......Hey, I got out of bed this morning so that is something to TOOT about right?

Recently I enjoyed a little trip with the two youngest grands and two of my daughters to Chuck E Cheese and then of course we had to do a little shopping.


This picture turned out blurry but I still love it!

Of course you get so many tokens when you purchase your pizza but you know Nana had to purchase more tokens....



Youngest grandgirl fixing to chow down on some pizza.



My sister Mary gave me this beautiful basket with a tomato plant filled with herbs a couple of weeks ago.


Look at it now....It is beautiful!


 My Hydrangea is so pretty!



 My oldest daughter with my oldest grand...Along with my grandson and soninlove are in New Orleans this week on a mission trip with our church. We covet your prayers for safety and that our Lord will be lifted high.


 Whipped me up a simple little beach dress for my family beach trip that is coming up soon. Can't wait!



 Goes quite well with the necklace, don't ya think?




How about a little kiwi, mango and avocado fruit salad with a hint of lemon, lime and spices to make you smile?


Should have some nice eggplants in August ready! Can't wait for some Eggplant Parmesan! 


Well it's been fun tooting today! If I would just learn how to tweet! LOL! Have a good day!
Hugs and blessings, Cindy

    You're the best Nana ever and I'm pretty sure the prettiest too. You and the girls look so cute together. I LOVE the beach dress you whipped up and the necklace looks fabulous with it. I've been wanting to make one for myself. Thanks for the show me. :).

    It's great to catch up with you, Busy Lady! The dress is so pretty. Hope you enjoy your time away. My eggplants are blooming like gangbusters but I haven't seen any fruit yet. I've never grown them before, is this usual? Lifting your family up as they work at their mission trip. What a great experience for all. Enjoy the rest of your week!!

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

{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

{SON-Flowers}

Don't you just love sunflowers? When I think about sunflowers I think of two things. My motherinlove who loved sunflowers and Fall. I came across a devotional written by Julia Bettencourt on sunflowers and thought it so appropriate for today as I wanted to share my sunflowers with you. Here's a few lessons we can learn from the sunflower.    Sunflowers Track The Sun.   Most plants are attracted to light but the flowering head of the sunflower actually tracks the sun following it's path and moving toward where it is in the sky all during the day. I read somewhere that sunflowers track the sun when they are in bud stage. Isn't that how it usually goes for us as Christians? When we first come to know the Lord, we get excited about knowing all about Him and living for Him, but after awhile we sometimes grow a little preoccupied with other things and get our eyes off of the Lord.   Wouldn't it be great if as a Christian we'd track th
