{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...

TUESDAY TOOTS

Well I must toot today about the grands! What better to toot about.  

Meet my oldest granddaughter Raygen. 


She turned 8 recently. Just growing up way too fast. She is the sweetest kid ever! Her personality is somewhat shy but I've seen her be aggressive on the soccer field! She LOVES to create and design. I've seen her take paper and make 3-D projects with it. We gave her her first sewing machine for her birthday. She is sewing everything in sight! She takes piano lessons and her first recital is coming up! This little girl has so much to look forward to in her life. I'm blessed to be her nana.

Meet my grandson Conner.

 
He turned 6 in March. He is brother to Raygen and my only grandson. Needless to say he is ALL BOY! Being a mother to 3 girls and then a granddaughter when our boy entered our life it was totally different than what we had known. Now instead of hairbows it was caps, instead of dolls it was toy cars and instead of sweet lady like manners it was...well, this list could be long so I'll end it right there! LOL! He is so full of life. Never meets a stranger. Will talk to anyone that will listen. He has such an outgoing personality. Can be so witty and so aggervating at the same time. He has our hearts that is for sure. Loves to play sports. Soccer and basketball seem to be his favorites. I'm blessed to be his nana.

Meet my granddaughter Mallory. 


She will 5 in November. She keeps us laughing. She tends to have a shy personality around large crowds but when she is with immediate family and her friends there is nothing SHY about her! She is the life of the party! You talk about having a southern draw now she has it! We laugh at the way she says things all the time. She is so full of energy. Constantly wanting to do something. Wants to get in the kitchen and help me cook or bake. Wants to sit in my lap at the sewing machine and watch me sew. Wants to find places in the house and the yard that would be good photo backdrops. Mercy, she will wear you out! LOL! I'm blessed to be her nana. 

Meet my granddaughter Kyleigh. 

 
 She will turn 1 in May. I could just kiss her little face off of her!!!! She is so sweet. She is sister to Mallory. Of course being the youngest of grands and a baby she gets lots of attention not just from nana and papa but from everyone in the family. She has this little smile that will melt your heart. Of course she is in that stage where she does all her little tricks. The wrinkling of the nose, mimics every sound she hears, and can crawl faster than I can walk! And we sit and watch her...and watch her...and watch her! She is our entertainment no doubt. She is tiny and dainty but got a feeling she will give the other 3 a run for their money before long. I'm blessed to be her nana.

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...
