STILL CELEBRATING OUR CHIEFS WIN!

My Birthday Gift from husband Maurice!

Finally decided on the perfect place

Decided I needed to do a painting of the celebration.  It took longer than I thought1 So only had one in me although I had two people that wanted to buy it right off!

Here is my display at Brick House Coffee& Eatery. I've been so happy with the sales. It has made a nice check the last 2 months for Orphan's Hope World Mission Ministries.

I put "best Buds" in for  "National Walk Your Dog Day"  It is 8"x8" priced at $35.00

"Good Ole Joe" needs to hang in another Cafe for awhile! It's priced at $50.00

More Art!

The Coffee/Eatery has a fun selection of coffees, drinks, pastries and sandwiches.

I bought these fun earrings there too!

Whe
When I went to walk at the Mall Sat. I discovered they were having a Dog Show so I walked among the dogs and took pictures!

All of them with a number waiting their turn!

Some of them were just watching. This was my favorite by far!!

All the grooming done and just waiting!!

Some of them had the routine down pat!

I love to add little words around my art work. Joy is my middle name and I loved the Micky/Minnie Block too!



Some frames my special friend Rose Marie gave me! I especially like the oval one!

My Lori Mitchell Cupid from Maurice for Valentines Day!

This front side was to appear first but the computer had other plans!

Sister Judy and I on Valentines Day. Maurice took the picture.

Great Niece "Charley" was born on my birthday so I got both of us The Birthday Girl by Lori Mitchell "Queen For A Day"

Got a shelf just for my new collection

She has a modest back view. Because shes a little girl! LOL! Happy February can you believe Spring is less than a month away!!

ANOTHER YEAR AROUND THE SUN!

Been thinking I might activate my Etsy site and put on a variety of art. What do you think? Would people be interested in my style?  This little wall hanging has vintage wallpaper border, trim, buttons and lace with a little quote: "you can never have too much happy"

THE BIRTHDAY GIRLS! My great niece Charley Joyann was born on my birthday Feb.6. What a neat Birthday Celebration!! I have order two "Queen of Hearts Birthday Girl"figurines by Lori Mitchell to commemorate the day for ever.  My middle name sneaked in their two as Charley's grandmother Joy was named for me!

I spent the day at Barnes & Noble my favorite spot for all occasions!

Husband Maurice likes the eating part too! Here he is sporting his newest designed sweatshirt!

We are mighty proud of our Chiefs here in the K.C., Mo. area. Winning Champions of the Super Bowl!!

The game was on Sunday (Church Day) but Maurice and I still dressed in the proper colors!

The only red tie he could come up with was a Christmas Holly one, but we figured people would get the idea!

These are my 2 favorite magazines I purchase them at  Barnes & Noble when ever a new issue comes out!

Made this little crib size baby quilt with applique hearts and attached pocket for doggy and kitty, and Bedtime Story for a friends charity.

It doesn't show too well, but there is a black Kitty and White and Black Puppy.

We got new brown leaf guard guttering put on the house during the snow. We leave the lights on the house and add red/white polka-dot hearts on the pillars thru February.

The brown looks much nicer than the aluminum color that was on there!

Last blog I showed the the makings of my Friendship Scarf. Now it's finished and I have enjoyed wearing it and receiving complements

I have 2 more hankies given to me since then by special people that I will make into roses. Need to order more black velvet leaves though!

Come rain or come snow, in all kinds of weather this retired mailman (husband Maurice) and his dogs make the potty rounds!

I've been so anxious to get back to working in my "Marlynne Style Stories & Paintings" So added several more pages!

This will always be my very Favorite home although our Ranch Home is a close second! A story and painting of that will come later. Hope you are enjoying your days too! Sending Love and Best Wishes to All Of You!
