this crazy adventure!!!
These are for each and every one of you that I have come into contact with!!! A little thank you for
your kindness and generosity!!! I wish I could send you all the real thing!!!
Thank you sweet friends!!! You all mean the world to me!!!
Lots of Love!!!

My new candles came!!! Yeah!!! I placed one on my kitchen island!!! Ooohhh I love it!!! I think
the rooster likes it too…he can’t stop staring at it;)!!!
TUSCAN CURRANT - The tartness of Black Currant combined with cassis create this truly
unusual fragrance. Completed with notes of sparkling lime.
I love a lot of the different Nouvelle scents but Tuscan Currant is my favorite!!! Try it…you’ll love
it!!!
Lots of Love!!!

People come into our life disguised as angels, and sometimes angels come into our life disguised as
people. It is possible to see God anywhere. All it takes are open eyes and ears and the willingness
to see miracles. They are everywhere. God is as available as we are. Having friends that inspire us
to rise to higher and greater levels is an awesome gift. Surround yourself with people that inspire
you to do better and inspire your friends as well. It is a profound truth that the people we hang
out will shape the path that we travel.
Have a wonderful Sunday and God bless you all!!!
Lots of Love!!!

Yeah!!! It’s Thursday!!! Ya’ll know what that means!!! Tablescapes…tablescapes…
tablescapes!!!
This little table is for extra seating on my back patio. I set the table for two!!!
Everyone in blogland is using shells…so of course I copied!!! My daughter has quite the
collection…so this was easy!!! I also had the linen tea towels that I am using for the
placemats/tablecloth…so I was off and running!!! I know everyone recognizes the white
dishes…courtesy of our dear Gollum. I had the little green desert plates…they pick up the
green in the tea towels perfectly…don’t you agree? The bamboo flatware is another
blogland favorite…from Horchow and the glassware is from there as well. I am so excited
about this little tablescape!!! I love how it came together!!! You never know when you first
get started!!! I must say…this is quickly becoming one of my favorite meme’s!!!
I love Tablescape Thursday’s!!! Join Susan and all the other tablescape lover’s at
Lots of Love!!!

So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

You have seen this picture before…it is my youngest child when he was about 2 years old. Isn’t he
cute?
This is that same baby boy today!!! 14 years old…almost 15 and…at least to me…still as precious!!!
I am so proud of the young man he is becoming!!! I love spending time with him…we have the
best time running around together… chatting and being goofy!!!
This is one of his favorite places!!! It just happens to be across the street from one of our favorite
restaurants…a quick little stroll and...we have desert!!!
Don’t these make your mouth water…they’re so cute too!!!
I just thought I would share a piece of one my favorite things to do on a hot Texas afternoon…
spending time with “my baby”!!!
I hope everyone is having a wonderful week!!!
Lots of Love!!!

I pray because I can't help myself. I pray because I'm helpless. I pray because the need flows out
of me all the time- waking and sleeping. It doesn't change God- it changes me.

For those of you who have been joining me in prayer for sweet Connor…I wanted to let you know
that he lost his long battle with cancer Friday, July 9th. My heart is broken for his precious
family. I know Connor is with Jesus and this is a blessing for everyone involved. His family…of
course is comforted by this…however…they are still devastated!!! I can’t even begin to
comprehend the pain of this loss!!! I am grateful that Connor is with our Lord and Savior and
pain-free for the first time in a very long time. I look forward to the day I will see him whole and
happy!!! I want to thank you all for your prayers and good wishes!!! I hope you will continue to
pray for this sweet family as they deal with the loss of there beloved child!!! Thank you!!!
Have a wonderful Sunday!!!
God Bless You All!!!

forward to catching up on everyone’s posts and reconnecting with all of my sweet blog
friends. Thanks to all of you that expressed concern over my whereabouts…it means the
world to me!!!
