{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...

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...

{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...
