‘lil snag…

gus-in-the-dryerMoments like these make it very hard to keep up with my resolution to stay on top of the house work and laundry, lol!

Our 13 year old cat, Gus, decided this was the perfect place to hang out for the day.

Oh, well…guess I’ll get some more looming done, lol!  😉

Meeting Blake~

I just wanted to let you get a peek at our new little excitment here in our family…my great-nephew Blake!  He came into the world a couple weeks ago, and the girls and I got to go meet him for the very first time when he was 5 lil-tykies-on-blakedays old.  Isn’t he sweet??? 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here he is wearing his very own set of ‘lil Tykies (which were actually designed with his arrival in mind)!  They fit him beautifully, and with a little room to grow…perfect! 

...meeting for the very first time!

He’s just so cuddly precious!  It’s been so long since I’ve gotten to hold a little one that he really hits an extremely soft part in my heart!  Welcome to the world, Blake!

Flash Back Friday!

Hiya!  I was honored to be the Spot Light of the Month for November at the Decor Accents Loom Group.  When we were chit chatting about what things made me tick, etc. I recalled a Christmas eons ago, when I was about 11 or 12 years old, in which my Missionette group held a play for our church.  My second eldest sister was the Missionettes leader, and she directed us in the play.  It was: It’s a Peanut’s Christmas, Charlie Brown!  I was fairly outgoing, and not a bit shy about saying which part I wanted to be:  Lucy!  …for 2 reasons: 

  1. She came in second for having the most lines, lol!
  2. She was kind of bossy/bratty, which unfortunately fit my personality quite well at the time.  (I’ve since learned to curb my exuberance a bit, and think of others before myself, lol.)

Anyhoo… I promised that I’d post these ancient pics of our early moment of stardom (Karen, are you reading this???)  I hope you enjoy, and get a real laugh at our obvious early 80’s attire, lol.

Thanks for reminiscing with me!  Be sure to have a groovy weekend…
