{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

{Christmas Cookies, Christmas Pictures and Grand Fun}

 


I hope this little post finds you all well and experiencing joy this Christmas Season.

I have been staying fairly busy but also enjoying some time off from work. As most know I work PT outside the home but have taken some time off and trying to savor the moments of the Christmas season. 

I wanted to share a few snaps we took outside with a very simple little set up. But they turned out so cute. I LOVE the expression on the youngest grandgirl's face. 


God surely knew what He was doing when He gave us grands! 









Mercy, I sure do love these babies and so thankful God gave them to me. 

We had a little fun baking too. Pretend baking and REAL baking! 



YES LAWD...I had a mess to clean up but it was worth it to hear the laughter, singing and of course, smacking those sweet lips as they tasted their finished cookies. 

And, we had enough cookies that they each carried home some.


I snapped this picture upon retiring one of the nights over the weekend that the girls stayed with me and couldn't help but think. Children...such beautiful and innocent beings aren't they? Enjoying life as it comes, day by day and not looking for anything more....ONLY  looking at the day they are in. I could sure learn a thing or two from them.

I hope that you all are having a most blessed season and enjoying the days the that Lord has given to us. Day by day. Till next week....

Hugs and blessings, Cindy

    Children have such a JOY about them. I think you nailed it! They live day to day. Isn't that what the Bible says?
    What fun to be with the grands and making memories because that's what it is all about, MEMORIES!

    Oh, Cindy, these are such fun pictures! Looks like you all had a ball during this photo shoot. It really shows their personalities. I can imagine you spent sometime cleaning up but I bet you giggled the whole time, remembering all the fun. ☺️ Thanks for sharing these, they made my morning! Have a blessed week, with your time off.

    It is so wonderful to experience the holiday season through the eyes of a child. They find joy and fun in almost all parts of the holiday no matter what is going on in this world. Your granddaughters and grandson are such sweet and beautiful kiddos. How fun to capture all these memories with your pics. Just beautiful and heartwarming Cindy. God is good. Have a great new week. xoxo Kris

    I love all the cute pictures of your grands. I miss doing things with my grands. Being sick for 2 weeks sure messed up my plans. Now I have to wear a mask around them. Covid is really bad over here. My dr said I am at risk and I probably got sick from one of the grands that goes to private school. The older two are not in school and wear mask when out. So my dr said I have to mask up since my resistance is low. I still hope we can have a baking day. I don't mind wearing a mask. My immediate family will be here and I am going to make a few Christmas mask. So do you live in Florida or Georgia? Where do you go hunting? No one I know goes hunting over where I live. We are in the city. I am glad you took time off work. I am so glad I am retired!

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

{Another Fun Filled Weekend}

I hope you all are doing well. I am trying to wind down for the night and thought I would try and get a post out. Girls, by this time I am in my fat clothes and recliner smashing that remote control!   Marty and I kicked off our weekend by having a little fun food as I call it,  "charcuterie" style out by the pond. Of course I always fix more than we need or eat but it sure was good.  Two of our granddaughters had dance recitals over the weekend so we got to watch them perform and oh my! They were just the cutest things ever.  We were blessed to be able to see them perform. Then we celebrated a birthday for this sweet grandgirl! She was excited about being double digits . And besides all the fun from the weekend I was able to see some of my pretties in bloom.  Now to enjoy a cup of coffee.... I hope that you all have a wonderful, blessed week.  Hugs and blessings, Cindy
