{May Has Arrived}

  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...

{Enjoying The Little Things In Life}

  I hope that you all are enjoying your Sunday afternoon. Our family has left to go home after our Sunday dinner so now I am sitting down to enjoy a cup of hot black  tea with honey. I should be sitting outside on the porch drinking my tea but it's a tad chilly today. Us Floridians just aren't sure how to dress these days for our weather. On Saint Patrick's day I decided to brew myself a cup of green tea and since I was having a very heathy tea I decided to have a shortbread cookie dipped in chocolate. LOL! I actually stumbled across the small box of shortbread cookies in my pantry that apparently I had tucked in the far back corner behind some boxes of dry items. These cookies had been gifted to me in a gift basket in February. I suddenly remembered that I had hid them in the pantry so the grands wouldn't eat them. However, I hid them from myself too! LOL!  Do you like green tea? I have several friends that don't but I love mixing them with other teas or just havin...

{Beach Vibes}

Happy Sunday afternoon everyone. Marty and I had a little getaway for three days at the beach and listening to ocean roar. Feeling that beach wind blow across my face, sand between my toes and breathing in the salt air just did my heart good. It's amazing to me how the nature of God brings sunshine to our soul. I done a little reading in which I love to do while sitting on the beach. Marty carried "Old Glory" , yes, he named his kite and she flew perfectly with the wind that we had. He's had her now for three summers and he has enjoyed watching her soar. We sat out by the pool in the late afternoons and just simply done NOTHING ! Those three days seemed to fly quickly but I enjoyed simply being lazy. Sorta felt good! LOL! We enjoyed some good food. If you ever are in St. Augustine, Fl. and have the opportunity, go eat at "Caps on the Water" . We have been several times before and we always enjoy it. The food is good and the atmosphere is wonderful.  We came ...

{Back To Reality} But Oh How God Did Bless

  Good afternoon my friends. I want to thank you all for the sweet "Happy Anniversary" wishes that so many of you sent our way. We had a wonderful time in the mountains celebrating our 44th wedding anniversary. I truly think God gave a little "EXTRA BLESSING" this trip since our last mountain trip winded up with both of us being sick. We surely give Him the praise. Our mountain side scenery was absolutely beautiful.  Our cabin was lovely. Way too much cabin for us but....I surely explored every crook and cranny and we loved it.  We have always used another company when visiting North Georgia but decided this time to try a company that we had heard great things about. They did not disappoint. The views we had was too beautiful to describe. Pictures cannot do it justice. We were supplied with chairs to use at the fire pit and we made good use of the fire pit as one of my favorite things to do is to have me a good old "Outside fire" as I call it.  We spilt...

{My Happy Place}

Well the hubby and I got away for three days to the beach in St. Augustine and oh was it so relaxing. There's just times that you need to do a getaway. We all need to break away from routine at times don't you agree?  And especially when it's to the beach! MY HAPPY PLACE NO DOUBT! There is just something about the sound of the ocean that relaxes you. Especially when you have a good book to read.  We done some eating! Look at the size of those pancakes! WHOA! Needless to say he couldn't eat both. Seems that all we did do was lay on the beach and eat. Now we did have a tent mind you. My man is NOT going to lay out in the sun. Now me, I will lay out in the sun a while, get wet, then back under tent. This is kinda how I do my beach time. A little sun and a LOT of shade.  He burns and I tan fairly easily but see here....THAT OCEAN WIND will burn you up if you aren't protected.  We went to several places to eat but one was called Caps...
