GETTING HANDWORK READY FOR A CRUISE

Have 15 different  folk art flowers ready to work on on our cruise ( in case I  have handwork withdrawals)   Will use for a quilt or individual pieces of art.

How cute is this Folk Art Cat that I got last week at the thrift store?

This beauty was out with it's master for a spring ride. Saw it at Quick Trip.

Enjoyed an evening with out granddaughter Jackie and great grandson Eli

I buy toys for myself!

Three Little Kittens, perfect size for my little red wagon!

Barnes & Noble had these little Beatrix Potter Peter Rabbits on special so I had to have one! I have several of her books. She was a very interesting person. Thanks for stopping by for a visit.

SPRING AT OUR HOUSE

GOT THIS LITTLE GIRL LAST WEEK AND REPAINTED HER AND GAVE HER A SIGN FOR THE  ENTRANCE TO THE BACK PORCH.

I've got a sign now, so it's official!  Ha Ha!

One wall on the back porch

Sad! Our little white Scottie doggie "Toto" was hit by a car and killed  2 days ago on Tuesday. We really miss our little lively friend!

At the Entrance from the driveway.

Out our kitchen window.

I tried a selfie!

Maurice and I celebrating our 63rd Engagement Anniversary. He ordered 2 waffles so one came home with us plus half of my plate. Of course I have to say we had already eaten the free delicious warm cinnamon rolls that are placed on each table as the customers are seated!

We are so grateful the Lord has allowed us 63 years together!

My favorite scene on the backporch!

Spring!

Ready for my Sorority St. Pats Party.

Our President Carol always dresses up so cute!

Here we all are in our green!

The program was painting rocks! I told the story of how some of the groups started and how it has become an International Treasure Hunt! There was some doubt whether they could do it or not but-

I think they turned out great!

Our group photo before eating!

Here's my latest mini pennant garlands.

Our Pool Table Display for Spring is a "Kitty Parade"  I have so much fun with this table!

The back view!

I got this little blue bird plaque last week. Love it !

Hope you're out there having fun too!! My other blog you might want to visit is featuring sister Judy's "Cottage" at www.preciouscottage.blogspot.com

VISTING SUBURBIAN GREENHOUSE, WISHING FOR SPRING!

Isn't this gorgeous? Called The Eternity Stone. I may adopt this as my emblem on my paintings and handwork! Love it!

This was another interesting stone piece.

These little miniature African Violets were precious, and reminded us of mother. She grew them and started new babies all the time too.  She had hanging grow lights in  part of a room like a small greenhouse

Their  Fairy Houses and Gardens are so cute!

Just had to smile at this display!

Another Fairy Garden.

The booths at  Brass Armadillo are changed very frequently. It's always inspirational to go out there!

Eye candy Everywhere!

Close-up!

Even the seed packets are inspiring at  The Suburban Greenhouse!

How cute is this piece of yard art?

Toto was so excited with his new toy, but it lasted 1 day!! I don't pay more than 98 cents and try for 50 cents each!

Tasha just takes hers up in bed with her.

This is my new Luminara  Birthday Candle from sister Judy. We are sure enjoying it! I have added some berried grapevine and moss balls around it now.

Judy and I waiting for our delicious birthday luncheon at The Greenwood Tea Room

Some more interesting booths at Brass Armadillo

Fun! Fun! Fun!

This is me with my latest "Cozy Corner" Painting of one wall in our Living Room

Close Up. The pump organ was our first antique! Actually bought by husband' Maurice.

A basket full of Spool Hearts that I took to distribute at a party recently

Button Art is fun too!

This is a close up of two of the pink spool hearts.

We decided we'd go some where different to eat yesterday. So picked Winsteads. This was THE PLACE in the 50's (our high school days)

This was our very creative waiter serving us his "Hawn Sundae Special"! We told him to surprise us with a special sundae of his creation and boy was it delicious!  Hope you are having some special moments too!
