{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

The only good thing about me having to drive 30 miles or more for a Doctor's appointment is getting to stop by a few Thrift stores. I think I scored pretty good!


This tea pot picture frame was the first thing I saw that caught my eye! I loved it. It had never been taken out of the box and all for $1.99!  



Just could NOT pass up more white napkins especially Fieldcrest as they are such a good sturdy napkin. Usually their brand of plain napkins cost around $9 for 4. Got 8 of them for $2.99. Now did I need them????? WELL if you ask my man he will say NO! But CINDY said YES!


 I feel in love with this hurricane jar.The picture does not do it justice. $2.99! I thought it was steel!


Couldn't pass up this cute little gravy boat for 99 cents either! You can ALWAYS use WHITE!

 
These little candle holders was adorable. Especially when I got both for $1.00.




Just simple little rings...but I see napkins rings!!!!! Doll these little cuties up and they will be good to go. 15 or 79 cents.

And my BEST prize of the day...........

You guessed it! PLATES.......



8 of these pretties for $4.99! They are really pretty. Trimmed in silver and has the little indention on them where you could place a tea cup if you wanted too.






I think I done pretty well don't you? Now here is the secret...DO NOT TELL MY MAN I have these plates! He has threatened to call Dish Alcoholics to me!

Decided to use a piece of material and had just enough to make a little skirt bottom attach to a tank top for the youngest grandgirl. (Yep, I done that when I was suppose to be sleeping)

 I love the Chevron prints and rick rack!

 Decided to embellish the tank top just a tad to match the skirt.


She had to have a hair bow to match so found one that matched great at non other than good old Wally World...


She is going to look so stinking cute with this little outfit on.


Got a little black and white dress almost finished for another grandgirl. Simple but cute!

My Blue Plumbago is so pretty....

Have a great Tuesday! See you tomorrow with some Wednesday in the Word....


Hugs and blessings, Cindy

  2. You have been busy, girl! I'm jealous over your thrifty finds but that little dress you made is gorgeous!! She will look so cute it it!!! When you get the other one done don't forget to post it. I don't have Grands yet but am pinning cuties for when I do! Love your flowers. I had some hydrangeas that looked a lot like those last year but they haven't bloomed this summer. They look healthy enough, though. You have a wonderful week, Cindy!!

  6. DOn't know what I am going to do with all these talented friends! I love the little dress idea! I hope to have my work area set up by fall or winter and do some sewing. Of course the reading will get tossed by the way side! Thanks for sharing all your treasures too! I have to stay away from thrift stores. I would never get my house decluttered! :)

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
