"Road Trip"~

the BFF's and I......we're off to celebrate Marla's birthday!

Antiqueing, good food and lots of {{LAUGHS}}!!

What a nice surprise

I had a surprise visit from Ethan and Addie tonight~
with flowers in hand..........
How adorable is this!!
The flowers were home grown (made) by Ethan and they now have a new home on the hearth on my fireplace.
I'll think of you Ethan and Addie every single time I look at my beautiful bouquet!!
Thank you for letting me be your "church Grandma"!!
I adore these kids!!

Thought this was just "ADORABLE"
and the best part.........it's TRUE!!

Someone's in the hospital..............

Poor Sean, been in the hospital for a couple of days now~
This is a picture of him in the ER.......
His head is above the top of the bed and his feet are hanging way
OVER!!

Once they got him admitted and into a room they put him in a bigger bed, thank goodness!!
He's fighting an infection with very strong antibiotics that can only be administered in the hospital. He's been pretty sick for a few days but I think he finally on the mend...
Meghan's a trooper and has stuck by his side day and night!
We love you Sean and Meghan too!!

Just another idea I fell in love with!!

Now, if I only had an empty wall for this~that would be awesome!!

Here's the project for this years Mother's Day
for Rylle and Tanner to give to their Mom!
What fun we had making this
Happy Mother's Day!!

Diet, cherry that is!
This is my new "motto"!

Oh my goodness.....is this just the cutest idea ever!!

Reminds me of my SIL, Diane~cute, cute, cute!!

Especially for Natalie...........

Meet Natalie~and Samuel, our #6 Great grand~!!

Tradition is......

when you have your first Great grand I gift you a Designer diaper bag from

Designs by Dani

and since Natalie hasn't ever seen her bags before,

here's a picture of mine. I've had it for 5 or 6 yrs and I still use it ever single Sunday to carry my scriptures, gum and other necessities~

(like treats for some of the kids in our ward and for Sweetiepie, too).

So, Natalie~let me know what fabrics you pick and I'll get it ordered for you!
