wishing you a barrel "full"!my simple desires for today...
plant some more pretty flowers
eat some sort of fast food (pms)
organize our crazy garage... again
smile BIG... & let the good in
hug on my little gals... LOTS
end the day with a pretty garnet glass of wine
happy... Friday!
back when it was "in" to wear mid tops... scarf belts and your pants up to your pits! Back when I actually HAD a waist! :)
Back when Astroworld (Six Flags) was still around in Houston. The Texas Cyclone was my favorite ride! Fast... furious... stomach dropping fun! I actually peed my pants one time... was that TMI? My friend Beth Anne & I were laughing so hard... it was inevitable! What did I do? I don't even remember... did I walk around with wet pants? Seriously... that's nuts!
This was when I was either a sophomore or junior in high school because I am wearing all Limited clothes... I remember those clothes well. I worked there during high school... oh... I loved that job... the awesome discount... it was so much fun! Remember when malls were "the place" to shop! Now... at all cost I try to avoid the mall! Funny!
Happy Wednesday! Our day has started out GREAT! It is after 11am and I am happy to say... I am STILL in my jammies! It feels good to not rush... to take the day as it comes! Awe... what a gift! I am feeling lucky & blessed! Now I'm off to go grab another pig in a blanket and another cup of coffee! :)
cheers & hugs!
hey gals! Thank you SO much for your thoughts & prayers...
I really... I know my family really appreciates your support!
Maybe I can share more later. All I know is that our family's roots go deep! We are woven together tightly making us mighty & strong... making us ONE... one that will face God's plans & tomorrow TOGETHER!
On landscaping news... our sod is being put down today... which means we are only hours away from walking on some crisp... cool... prickly... green... goodness! What a gift!
The kids are running wild... the popsicle's are flying... the messes are growing by the second! Summer is here! Today is good!
ready... set... GO
whoa...
whoa...
whoa...
whew!
It may be gloomy... rainy... flipping cold outside today...
BUT i feel like a piggy ready to take flight!
There will be a little shindig this morning at the school...
and then s... s.... s... oh yeah...SUMMER!
We are all giddy... plain silly this morning!
Isn't my flying pig SOOOO fun!
Would you believe that yesterday the landscapers
were here to start planting trees... shrubs & such and it
started raining! We live in the dessert!!!
It never rains here... never! crazy!
Of course I had to stick piggy in the ground right away!
Another reason to smile... the show goes on...
we will be getting our sod... rock & such this week!
oh yeah... oh yeah
okay... one funny tidbit!
At night Campbell always like to say something sweet to me
before bed. It can be as great & simple as
"mama, i love you"... "mama, you're the best mama"!
Last night she says...
"i will never let go of my heart that has your name on it"
sooo sweet! sooo sweet!
So then little bit chimes in & says...
"mama, i will never let my jacket go in the wind"
priceless! too good!
So today...
may we all wear fun on our hearts & really take flight!
still...
i'd like to think this dove came to say hello &go nutty MIGHTY MOMS!
Some new creations for the shop... I hope to get out from under the pile of "to do's" and get them listed tomorrow!"oh yeah... oh yeah... i'm a first grader now! " Those were her first words running to the car! So funny! She was like a super star!
We are SO proud of her! Her awesome teacher says she is "crazy smart" and "eager" to learn... she really said that! She is one of those people that "gets" reading... and is well above her expected level! Woo hoo... our daughter's got some serious noggin! :) Can you tell I am her mom! I am just so happy for HER!
she checked the mirror a dozen times before leaving...
waiting for her name to be called
isn't the florescent lighting glorious...
the cherry on top... waiting in line toI know grand-parents will appreciate this post! :)
I'll most likely be back a bit later... always something to share! :)
I'm off to scratch... scratch... scratch! I touched some kind of dad gum poison plant... you should see my neck & face... not lovely! I am miserable! Whelp woman... that's me! Praying for some healing over here!
Wishing you a fabulous Friday! Happy smiles & a happy heart!
her first year of mother's day out
these are of her last year... A YEAR...
A YEAR... like a snap of my fingers.
Do you ever find yourself
shaking your head at the idea of "time"...
how fast it seems to pass?
Occasions like this remind of how the clock tics!
So much can change in a year!
So much can happen in a year!
You can be going full speed in one direction...
and suddenly the train switches over to
a completely different track!
I am in awe of the power of tomorrow...
I am in awe of what tomorrow CAN bring.
hurry daddy...
