Today's Flowers!


It's still cold in Utah and I still have a cold!! Today I decided to just let my body heal.


In my tiny town it's large junk clean up.  


They place GUARDED dumpsters around the town for people to get rid of big "JUNK".


I am shocked and horrified at what people have thrown away. We are such a wasteful people!


I guess nothing changes unless one person stands up and asks for change!?


Happy Spring!!!

Cute!


I love to teach Primary! Sometimes I need help though. Are these not the CUTEST!!

Nike Yoga Pants



It happened like this...I got to work noticed my glasses where super dirt so I washed them...went to grab a new hand towel and noticed  we were low so I popped in the the wash room to pop in a load. I have been very sick w/ a horrible head could for a few day and I'm still feeling quick "under the weather" . I am a bit shaky and POURED BLEACH down my favorite pair of pants!! I could lay on the floor and cry!


I thought "no worries" I can just hop over to my friend Ebay...HA ha ha! They are selling for 39.00 on Ebay. I am heart broken. Kate gets Prince William today and I get bleach on my favorite trousers!! Life is ROUGH!!!

If you happen on any Nike Yoga Pants size large....buy them for me huh?

Congrats!!

Happy Easter!


At the last moment the Master could have turned back.
 But He did not.
 He passed beneath all things that
He might save all things: the human race,
 the earth, and all the life that ever inhabited it.

-Today was COLD!!
-I love a grape hyacinth. Such a happy little flower!
-I could go for some Jelly Beans right now!

Have a seat!!

Last night I took "my girls" (group home) to a safety fair in the neighborhood! They offered free chair massages! I love free so I gave it a whirl! The woman gushed about how many "knots" I was hosting and took her elbow to them. I honestly almost barfed! No really. I think I might have a serious "knot issue" that should be dealt w/ rather quickly!

1913

Often we learn by trial and error but sometimes we are blessed to have someone in our lives who has great wisdom. When I was little Merle was one of the Grandmas of the neighborhood. She was smart and kind and a hard worker. She could do and make just about anything and seemed happy doing it. She had a quiet and kind sort of wisdom. When called upon she was always willing to serve. Today she waits w/ a strong, kind and hopeful faith to be reunited w/ her loved ones on the other side.

Because of her life mine is better!
Happy Birthday Merle!

Merle w/ her Mother.

Merle suffered from many illnesses as a child.
She was the only person in Box Elder County to get polio at Peach Days.
This awful illness changed her life. Her home was quarantined for months!


One year Merle was so in love w/ a handsome young man she decided to ask for nothing for Christmas! Her parents gave her the 5 dollars they had saved and she went and had this picture taken for her true LOVE! Romantic Right? 


Merle could sew and sew she did!!! She even helped me in high school when my sewing class was a trial!
Most sewing tricks I know, I know because of Merle!

 

 Merle went in to the hospital to have her one sweet child and was surprised when she left to have 3 sweet daughters. For many years her and her daughters were celebrities in our small town!

Little Nest! (Home Tour House II)

Ms. Cami thanks for having us come to your house. It is darling times 10 and always clean. (How does one do that?) The thing that I love most about Cami's house is she doesn't have clutter. Her taste is very simple and very cleaver! Cami is very thrifty but you never know it looking at her cute decor!



I love all the "P's"! GO PACKERS!


Super cute mantel...super poor photo!


Simple but darling!!


Cami loves a good silhouette or three!




Thanks again!!

The house on the corner! (Home Tour House I)

Ms. Tristan's house is DARLING, old and tiny. This little lady was built in the 1800's so it has seen it's share of horse pulled wagons drive past! It's porch decor is ever changing. I love the faux fire place and I love when the decor is AQUA!


This tiny pass though from the kitchen to the front room makes me smile! It reminds me of a story book mouse hole!


A "glass" full of door hardware! Love!


This down stairs bedroom is used by an expecting mother who wants to be close to the bathroom!
 Look it even has a sink in it so a drink of water is only an arm reach away! So B and B!!



Need some cheap kitchen art? FORKS!! Aren't they darling?  


The cupboards are metal w/ a new coat of paint and some magnets they are a gallery!  


Bird silhouettes and that darling stencil that I see bringing continuity to every corner!


This is my favorite part of the house...the vase filled w/ glasses. Adds a splash of color and lots of interest!




The bed was built in to maximise on this tiny master!


I love a polka dot and I love a chippy letter! Ms. Tristan's sons room.

Thanks so much Tristan! LOVED your house so much...now I have even more reason to
covet (in a total righteous way) your cute adobe!!
