Contemplating roses and time travel.

Have I told you that I must have super-powers? 

How do I know this?

because I blink....

and I am in the future three weeks...

Gone...

time...

just like that.

:o)

Here's to summer being busy and full...

of birthdays

and driver's ed;

of swim meets

and sleep overs;

mission trips and movie nites...

Looking forward to a finale with family at the beach...

and slowing down the time travel.

(super-powers are over-rated)

Mom's Day

Mom...

Beautiful.

Courageous.

Creative.

Wise.

My Cheerleader.  My biggest Fan.  

Shutter buffet re-do

I have been on the search for a long buffet for quite a while.

One that would fill a long wall in my dining room.

Strolling through the quaint Roseville antique fair a few months back I found exactly the piece and it was priced right!

It was made out of an old shutter...So clever!

Wonderfully worn, dented and chipped! 

Perfect to downplay the formality of the dining room.

It's 80 plus inches filled the space perfectly.

However, I wanted to add some extra shelf space underneath...here's how I did it...

happiness is....a good friend and a good cup of coffee

a good friend refreshes the soul....
