Outside My Window

026

There was a little kiddie fair put on by PartyLand the other day. Miss Chomp and Magoo were sooo excited to go, and me? Well, I’m usually up for an adventure. But this time, I decided to shake it up and bit and NOT go out to the actual fair grounds. Oh, the kids and their momma went in alright, but I wanted to stay in the nice warm car.

After all, I had my Lemon/Peppermint water…

035

a stack of magazines and a good book…

031

my crocheting….always–ALWAYS…

033

and even my phone…just in case. Yeah, I was ready for the long haul alright.

027

Then I looked out my car window and realized that there were some pretty things going on all around me–most of them within arms reach.

I’m pretty sure after soaking in all that lovliness–I fell asleep and dreamed of a pretty little brook…

just outside my window.

Things To LOVE on a Friday

004

A feathery friend who’s come to visit…for a while.

001

A quilty work of art hanging on my daughter’s wall…that she designed herself.

008

A new essential oil diffuser given to me by one of my favorite guys—thanks Rhen!

002

A piano-playing boogie baby.

010 - Copy

The bald head that we waited so long for.

009

Thin crust, pepperoni pizza on a week night…just because.

001

My sweet, Cheeto loving kitty.

What are you loving on this wonderful Friday?

Stuff That Makes Me Smile

001

Making smoothies for that Bald Kid again.

024

New treasures from a far, far awayland–more on that later.

025

One incredibly inspiring book–and I’m not kidding. I have a whole pack of Post-it notes used up on the pages I want to make something from. Love it.

029

Mini daffodils that I’ve simply fallen in love with. Seriously, they’re the size of crocus! I think I’ll go back and get a billion more.

033

Ancient marble antique store find–right in my mother’s childhood hometown. She was a neighborhood champ so I can’t help but wonder if she ever came near any of these very old, very lovely things.

034

A big, old bag of pop tops that I’m collecting and saving and storing and stashing until somebody tells me what the heck I’m suppose to do with them. Any ideas?
