{It's Been A Hot Minute Y'all}

  Well, it's not HOT in my neck of the woods in temperature (not today anyway) but it's sure been a HOT minute since I last posted. For that I am so sorry but it seems my life has been consumed with doctor appointments, tests, and MORE tests, biopsies, surgery and so much more. One day at a time sweet Jesus is all that any of us can ask for. Wanted to pop in on this beautiful Sunday afternoon to share a little about what I've been up too.  Marty and I enjoyed a weekend at the beach before I had breast cancer surgery and took advantage of the time I had in between so many doctor appointments and testing. It was sure a good little getaway.  We celebrated our 47th wedding anniversary in September. WOW! Just babies! LOL! We were high school sweethearts. Started dating at age 16. Married at age 18 and started a family at age 20.  We celebrated Marty's birthday in October. He says that he's feeling his age these days. LOL! He still works 4 days a week and has a long commu...

FOTO FRIDAY

My youngest granddaugher, 2 1/2 got to go to Disney On Ice. Needless to say her mom (my daughter) dressed her as Belle. And oh was she a lovely Belle. 
 


She wanted to show me her braclet!

Of course everything she had on came from the Disney Store.
She decided that she was through with the pictures!
Inside we went so she could draw on her princess chalkboard.
Isn't she just a lovely Belle?
And, she enjoyed every minute of the show! 
Thanks for sharing my youngest granddaughter with me today.

    Oh my goodness! She looks like a dream! You are such a wonderful grandma - I love seeing all the things you do for and with your grandkids. And I am assuming that is your daughter pictured - she is absolutely beautiful too! Obviously they get their beauty from you!

    She is so sweet...I miss the days when I could "dress up" my girls! I have one grandson and buying clothes for him is not as exciting as it was with girls(so for now it is "sports clothing"!!) Enjoy the day

    Truly a lovely Belle! She is a living doll & I know you enjoyed spending time with her & her beautiful Mommy.
    The photos of her on the wooden bridge are just wonderful & I ♥ her little bracelet & the fact that she wanted to show it to you. A frilly little girl after my own heart...we ♥ Bling, too!

    Hi Cindy,
    I feel like I have been away from blogland for years, but it is nice to be back and just in time to see your beautiful little granddaughter. She is just precious with or without that gorgeous Belle costume. Seeing things through their young eyes is like seeing things for the first time again. I just went to Disneyland with my grand daughters yesterday and loved watching them squeal with delight.
    Thanks for the fun post and for visiting my tablescape. I am off to see your tablescape now.
    :) Maryrose

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...

{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...
