Pathetic...

That's what I am! TWO weeks of not updating my Blog!!! I guess life kind of got in the way, and I have been hanging out on Facebook some....still no excuse.
We have been busy painting away...I do not like painting ceilings! LOL We are on our kitchen now, which is the hardest room so far...so many things to move......it will all be done soon though.

I've been stitching and will take some photos of the Bellpull I finished and show it next post, and I finally started "Creepy Crawly" by Blue Ribbon Designs...I just barely started that...should have some progress to show tomorrow.

I am meeting a fellow stitcher for lunch tomorrow. We meet periodically, we only live 1/2 hour from each other....she is also a poster on the 123 Board...it's been quite a while since we have met this time though.....so tomorrow will be fun!

Next Saturday is our oldest DD's prom! I hope the weather co-operates! We have it all planned as to where to take the photos....but not if it rains!!!

Speaking of daughters...here is my youngest at her school. She completed the D A R E program.

And...some visitors that stop in for food each day...LOL


Have a great day everyone!!

I AM TRULY BLESSED, AND LIFE IS GOOD...

Life is precious......and life is good.......I am so aware of this! I hope everyone that is a MOM had a blessed and wonderful day...I did.
I awoke early this morning....I heard our oldest DD getting up and ready for work...and had planned on getting up to see her off, but fell back asleep for a few minutes...it was just about 7am when I woke. I came out to the kitchen, put some coffee on and walked into the dining room/den....this is what I saw....LOL


That large white envelope is a card from oldest DD, the purse is what she bought me...it is GORGEOUS!! The other two cards are from my son and youngest DD....they got me Rhoda on DVD and some chocolate......how sweet was that!!!!! I know Mother's Day is not about "THINGS"... but they were just so sweet to do this!!

Today, as I mentioned, oldest had to work, but my son and youngest DD and DH and I packed a picnic and went for a drive...we got lost, once...LOL, but ended up being where we wanted to be. Here are a couple of photos of our drive...this was taken just before it poured....so it's kind of dark!




I've got some ideas I want to share with you over the next couple of days...so I hope you stop by!

Take care everyone!

IT'S DONE!




This is Isabella's Garden........and I finished up the framing last night! I'm really liking her....almost as much as Emma's Garden, which I did last year.



Have a great day everyone!

Hugs, Marion
