This afternoon I was able to sit outside on the deck and enjoy a beautiful day. When I looked up I saw the blue skies through the trees. I wonder if times like this are a little bit of "heaven on earth". It feels like that to me...My sister sent me this video last week. Hope you enjoy it...I thought it was soooo funny! Be sure and turn up the sound. Have a great day!
This is my wonderful Dad...Art! He is 89 years old and he is a very active man. For 40+ years he's been a Shrine Santa at Christmas and as you can see he makes a beautiful Santa Claus! He has brought me love and joy for all the years of my life. God couldn't have blessed me with a better Dad. He has a wonderful wife Flo, and then there's my favorite sister Linda and of course "me". My mother passed away in 2002 and my brother passed away last fall (Oct 31st blog) but I know they're watching over us all. My dad is also the grandfather of 3 and great grandfather of 11 (and he knows them all!!!). HAPPY FATHER'S DAY... DAD!!!
I have been finding blues in the strangest places...take my granddaughters hair! This is her summer fun look and I love it. Actually I have 2 granddaughters that have done this but Sadie (Anna's daughter) has pink. Alex loves the Lord, playing soccer, old movies, all kinds of music and has her own style (enlarge her picture and check out her earrings). She made the ceramic lighthouse in a previous post.
This post is for our son-in-law John. He's a Carolina graduate and over the years has made all of us big UNC fans. I hope all the family is having a great Colorado vacation. 
Okay...so there aren't any lighthouses in Kentucky! I knew that!!! My granddaughter Alex is very creative and loves all kinds of art. She made this and brought it home to me at the end of this school year. I think she has "Hatteras" in her blood. I love the way she's transformed the stripes from black to blue. Since Bill and I have moved from NC, this is a fun reminder of our many day trips to the beach...minus the ocean...and the seafood...and the hush puppies...and so on.
Happy Birthday to you...Happy Birthday to you! Today is our youngest daughter Anna's birthday! In our family there are these plates that pop up at mealtime when someone is having a special day. Our oldest daughter Kim started using a fish plate years ago and now she has this one to put on the table and make someone feel extra special. It's a really fun way to bless someone around your table. Happy Birthday Anna Marie...we love you, Mom & Dad
We have two granddaughters that for the last 8 years have been going to camp every summer for two weeks. The trunks are out of the basement and guess what...one of them is "blue" so this is my first color post.
