{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...

{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 enjoyed it more than they did....my inner child was showing as I watched such talent. 


My hearts....


Happy Easter to you all and I pray that April brings you many wonderful blessings. 

I will close with this TRUE statement.


Hugs and blessings, Cindy

    What a precious family you have - had to laugh at the youngest not liking her itchy hair band! They are beautiful darlings! Always fun to go out and have fun! Love all the special pictures with your grands - you are such a special grandma! Your Easter pictures were beautiful! Much love to you dear friend, keeping you always in my prayers!

    Sorry I missed this one when it was first posted. It's been a crazy month and I am still playing catch up. I loved seeing your beautiful grandchildren...I can't get over your grandson so grown up and TALL and handsome! And that Mallory in her prom dress...she's just beautiful!! Oh, don't they grow up way too fast??? The littles are so sweet in their pretty wedding dresses...they are adorable little girls as you well know. Love seeing the whole group of you together. Love the colored Easter eggs too! I haven't done that in a while, but I agree, the "inner child" would love to have some colored Easter eggs again. I may have to do that next year! I enjoyed seeing you looking refreshed and hopefully you are feeling much better these days? Praying for you and hoping all is well. God bless you all real good!

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...
