Angels

I am so thankful for all of the special Guardian Angels I have had in my life.  I so loved these Angel images, that I had to post them and share.  Hope you enjoy them too!  :)


















































All of these precious Angel images came from The Graphics Fairy!

Blessings




This little catepillar will soon become a butterfly!


This spoke to me today, so I had to share it. :)

...."No matter who has denigrated you or how much pain you've experienced in life, no matter how many setbacks you have suffered, you cannot allow yourself to accept that as the way life is supposed to be. No, God has better things in store for you. You must reprogram your mind with God's Word; change that negative, defeated self-image, and start seeing yourself as winning, coming out on top. Start seeing that marriage as resotred. See your business as flourishing. See your children as enjoying the good things of God. You must see it through your eyes of faith, and then it will begin to happen.

Learn to guard your mind, control your thought life, and begin to dwell on the good things of God. If you always think little, believe little and expect little, then you will receive little."

"Maybe at one time you had a good image of yourself, but now you see yourself as simply as survivor."

"See yourself as God sees you - as a winner, an overcomer!"

-Joel Osteen





Today, I am counting my blessings!  Thank you Lord for the wonderful time my Fletcher and I shared last year at Seaside.  We had so much fun crabbing together :)






Thank you Lord for those moments with Bubba, when we are fun and care free and treasuring each other.




Thank you for the Dear Friends and positive, special people you bring into the lives of our children.



Soccer Sammie, her Bestie Bri and Coach TJ!  That soccer tournament was so fun!  The girls had a blast!




Thank you Lord for my wonderful Sammie. I love my kiddos and realize what blessings they are!

God Bless!

Thanksgiving is Near

This is last years table setting.  Yes, we already had put up our white Christmas tree to enjoy for Thanksgiving.  What shall I do this year?  hmmmmmmm.


Dare To Dream









Throw your dreams into space like a kite!




Love this decor!  There's several pieces I want in my home!  Love the white bird cage, farmhouse distressed table and all the soft colors!










Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too can become great!  - Mark Twain









God Bless!

FRIENDSHIP





First, please let me tell you how Blessed I am!  To be loved! :)



My girl friend sent me the most wonderful package in the mail today!  She loves to create as much as I do!  Some of the things she sent me are things that I can use my imagination with to create!  So exciting!  Look at the darling glass piece she made with our photo in it!



Look at all of these fun treasures!







Here I am sporting the fabulous bracelets she made for me :) 





Here's a close up of one bracelet.  Precious!  Words to describe me!!!  I'm so touched :)







Love her note :)







This says, "As down life's stream we wander. Let's pause awhile and ponder. How we may bring to someone gladness. How we may banish care and sadness."   I so love this!






An old photo she described as "Old friends on Holiday"  That's us :)






I treasure you Tam!  Thank you so much for the wonderful package today :)  Today was a magical day for me!

A Dogs World :)



One thing that really makes me smile inside and out is vintage pics with children and their dogs.  Growing up my little dog was just everything to me.  These images make my heart just sing!










This cutey reminds me of our beloved lil Cosmo.  She is no longer with us.













I adore vintage pics with children and dogs.  They make my heart sing! :)









This has always been one of my all time favorite vintage pics!  It's our lil pets that bring us so much love and comfort throughout our lives.










What a love!  This lil puggy was certainly loved - what a precious photo!

Let's go outside :)








Hanging on front porch rail.










The pros and cons of living in Arizona is our summers are so hot you could fry an egg on the sidewalk!  But this time of year, is pure outdoor bliss.  Relaxing outside with a good book, or cup of coffee in the morning is wonderful. 



There's our little Cleo










Look at those lemons!  I love my lemon trees!



















Love the whispy, fluffy things on this plant!





































yummy lemons!
