good morning

i went out and cut some roses for the house. they are so pretty right now. i'm sure all the warm and humid weather has helped. a quick and simple layout that i did yesterday. sorry about the bad photo. it's very cloudy this morning and also that blingy paper clip is heavy and bending the paper over.
took a photo of our house and hung it in the front entry. nothing worse than an un-adorned wall right? ;)
and last but, certainly not least, my little sweet pea. didn't get to see her last night as her grandpa was way to tired to make the trip. he roofed all day in the hot sun and needless to say it kicked his butt and of course he is all tan already! anyway, hopefully tonight we can bring the kids our deep freeze. we just don't seem to need all that freezer space anymore. so they can put it to good use,i'm sure.
have a nice day!

tryin to be

a little creative here and do some painting and scrap booking,which i have not done in so/way to long! this metal star was black and i just layered some paint on. you know the lazy way,with sponge brush and wipe off with a paper towel? fun! it was! i kinda like it now... sorry about the not so good photo but, you get the idea anyway don't you?
love these jenni bowlin game cards. just folded it in half and added some goodies.
the inside...
the back with a star on the 20 since that is the date kaylie was born on. very simple...

have a nice day!

my sweet pea

is on my mind today. well,she is every day i guess! you know how it is right?just wanted to share that she has discovered her tongue. it's cute now,probably not so much if she would do this later. well, maybe it still would be!!we are going over to see her on wednesday after bud gets off work. looking forward to that. also on my mind today,my dad,as well as yesterday, but today would have been his 84th birthday. hard to believe he has been gone almost fourteen years already.

have a nice monday everyone!

Today is my sweet sister and daughter's

birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY GIRLS!!

I just thought i would share a couple of new goodies i got this week. these darling tea towels.they are yummy colors and i esp. love the one of the mama and the little girl feeding the geese.
my kitchen table,as i told you in a previous post this never stays the same very long at all! ;)

my new tassel from the nesting place. i love the green bead at the top. little cupboard in the corner.....
and cully keeping one eye on me at all times,while being a little bum!
have a great day everyone. it's a nice one!

my flag banner

that i cut the day the artsy chicks met out at vic's. accu-cut dies were used. such fun. i finally got it done and hanging up in my scrap room. this is for dear liv who wanted to know where i was going to put this frame that i did. well, it's just setting on top of the computer desk in my room liv. nothing special....
what would a post on my blog be without at least one photo of my sweet pea hmmm?
have a nice day!

is there anything that compares

to the sweet innocence of a baby child? hmmmm i think not. i can not get over the overwhelming sense of love i have for this little girl! for that matter i don't want to but, i need to try and get my emotions in check as you will see in the following couple of photos. she just kept smiling at me and cooing and of course big baby me started crying.jill was taking pictures with my camera and i wasn't even aware that she was.

look at her,my little dolly! and look at her big baby,red faced gram! yikes!!

getting it under control here,i think....always questionable tho!lol!

yep it's under control now! wow i'm sure you all are thinking,what a big baby right?!( and not kaylie either);)

just as you are coming into dunlap this is in a field not far from the road! why it's there i don't know but, it's so cute i thought i would share it with you.

have a nice sunday!

tomorrow we are going to see

our little sweet pea and of course jill&jim too! ;) the kid's are having problems with the washer and dryer so bud's going to see if he can figure out and fix what is wrong. hopefully not too much. cause you know how much laundry you can accumulate with a baby! lots and lots! i saw this little sun suit when i was out shopping and well i had to get it for kaylie. i thought it was pretty cute and she will look darling in it,of course!:) this little frame is one i got from vic the day the artsy girls got together at her house and so i re-did it and this is what i came up with....

not much else going on,a break in the rainy stormy weather today so i'm hanging out bedding to dry! love that!

have a great weekend!
