More Than A Song

After waiting and waiting on my hostas to bloom; I blogged about it here…….I finally have one that the buds actually opened! The first one that I had the picture of just had those buds but they never really opened and just sort of died I guess. Stacy said they are probably like a tear […]

I didn’t quite get through last week with the things I had been monogramming…..got a few more graduation invitations in the mail so I needed to get something done for those. I’m a little late sending some of them but hopefully can get them in the mail today. No more baby gifts at the moment, […]

Had a busy weekend with it being a holiday and having company. But decided to do this meme late anyway! ~Tastes of Summer~ By the Way… Which do you prefer? watermelon, canteloupe, or peaches? hard to decide but today I pick canteloupe, probaby because we have one at the house! snowcones, popsicles, or an ice […]

This week Kristine over at random and odd asked for: 1. Your suitcase/s or travel bag. 2. Your ground. 3. Something you are powerless to. Click below for my pictures this week:

Been sewing/monogramming lately for gifts that I want to finish; some for baby and others for graduation. I still have a few more to do that will need to get in the mail but that will be later this week or next week. The hardest part of doing it is actually getting started but when […]

On Saturday we decided, sort of at the last minute, to go to a matinee showing of The Da Vinci Code. Got into some unexpected traffic and were a bit late getting there……I do so hate to miss the beginning of a movie. But E and C have both read the book and said they […]

exciting Friday night at home! One of our daughters and her boyfriend came for a brief visit this weekend, drove to see us after they got off work. We had supper and visited briefly; I had thought we might play a game or watch a movie but it seems that everyone else had another idea. […]

Last week for Mother’s Day one of my children gave me some roses! They are so pretty, kind of several shades of pink and I enjoyed having them around here……….but, alas, they don’t last forever! A week makes a lot of differnce in how they look! See for yourself………

This week Kristine says: “I am inspired by Wave of Modulation. She takes my breath away. Not only with her pictures, but her words that are so real, raw and soul squeezing. This week…it’s about WoM.” Our assignment: 1. Something Discarded 2. Lay down on the ground and find something ugly and make it beautiful. […]

It’s a first for me………….I noticed a week or so ago that two of my hosta plants have shoots with a bud or bloom on them! This is the third year I think that hostas have been in some of our beds and none of them have ever bloomed before. And it might not make […]

Had a full and fun weekend! We rented a movie Friday night to watch, “The Greatest Game Ever Played”, a true story and we enjoyed the movie. It was interesting to see some history behind golf, this tournament and the story of this amateur that played in it. I recommend it to watch.

This week the assignment from Kristine is: Pairs 1. Something you have 2 of. 2. Something you wish you had 2 more of. 3. “Two� Click below for my entries this week.

It’s all relative: 1. How many siblings do you have? 2 sisters 2. Do you get along with your family? I think so! 3. Think you look like anyone in your family? I’ve been told that I look like my mom and that one of my sisters and I look alike. 4. Do you want […]

A couple of days ago I finished this book by Nicholas Sparks and along with his other two, The Notebook and The Wedding, I particularly enjoyed this one. It was different, not exactly a novel, I think it had memoir written on the front cover. It is the story of a three week trip he […]
