I sure hope that your May has kicked off to a good start. The heat is settling in quick around our parts. We've kicked off May with watching our softball girls win the District. Next week we start another round of ball. It's so much fun to watch these girls and especially our girl, Mallory. She plays centerfield. We were so proud of both teams that played against each other. They all, hand in hand gathered together as one of our girls prayed for the game and also for one of our young men that was in a horrific car accident and fighting. His name is Kaden if you can think to lift him up to our Lord. I had the opportunity recently to speak to a group of women at a ladies luncheon event at a local church. Oh we had so much fun. I wished I had gotten pictures of the beautiful decorations. We had a TEA PARTY and we each kept the cup that we drank out of it. Isn't she just lovely? Easter has come and gone but we sure have a great time with family. We gather each...
Happy May! I wanted to pop in and share a few pictures from my month of April which seemed to fly by quickly. As I am trying to catch up with my blogging friends today I realized it had been a month since I last posted. My mercy! But, I am so busy doing this thing we call life here on earth and enjoying every moment that I can. With my immediate family of 14 there is never a dull moment y'all!
We had three family birthdays in April. My SIL David, granddaughter Adalynn and oldest granddaughter Raygen.
Our favorite grandson Conner (only grandson) carried his girl to the prom. We had to snap at least one picture with Mom and Nana!
Two of my elementary school friends and I get together at least once every 4-5 weeks so we went to breakfast and then to Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens. We always have so much fun.
There are so many beautiful paintings to look at this but this was one of my favs.
I loved looking at the many different era's of clothing. Since I was a Cheerleader in Middle and High school, a Huntress and I work out these particular dress styles caught my eye. I am just really glad that I do not have to wear a dress for hunting or working out! LOL!
I did manage to take some time to do a little beach theme decor in my dining room.
Our granddaughter Mallory will be in the playoff's this week for High school softball but she also plays travel ball. These are pictures for travel ball. She loves all things sports.
Kyleigh is our dancer in the family and she is getting ready for her recital that is coming up soon.
My youngest daughter sent this picture to me. YES, MOMS ARE ALWAYS RIGHT!!!
Thank you for letting me share bits and pieces of my April with you. I hope that May brings you all good health, happiness and much joy.
I will close by sharing my May focus.
Hugs and blessings, Cindy
Hi Cindy! Beautiful family photos as always and I love your beachy stuff in your dining room. A day with friends touring the art museum sounds wonderful, I can't imagine painting a canvas with all those details like the woman with the mirror!

DeleteHappy new month of May 💗💗. I love all your family pics. And I love that you still get together with friends from elementary school. I have one friend from high school. We've been friends over 60 years! Hard to believe it's been that long. She lives in another province but we talk at least twice a week.
ReplyDeleteGood luck to Mallory in her playoffs.
Thank you GM.

P. S. Thank you for visiting my blog. For some reason your comments aren’t being emailed to me anymore. I don’t know why?
Thanks Kitty. These computers have a mind of their own don't they?

Love your beach theme table settings! What fun! And your final sign about God being the "Way Maker, etc." I love that song. Thank you for sharing all of this with us. This was very joyful and uplifting!

Thanks so much.
DeleteLovely post, you have been busy living life, which is awesome. I just happened to come across and old post from 2010 I think it was and I saw you left a comment, so I like to click on them to see if the person is still blogging, most of the time they aren't, so was glad to see you were.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely Summer!
Nellie
Awe, thanks Nellie. I don't blog as often but try to now at least monthly.
