This time for Dinner??

This time she came for dinner and ate some bad apples and off she went.  This time she was in the front yard.  She was only here for about one hour and I only got one picture of her cause I waited to long before I got it taken.


I'm sorry it is so dark but it was late and this is the afternoon son.  But she is still pretty and still eating the bad apples that fell off the tree.  She is so use to our land lord's dog and she is even friendly with her too. Thanks for coming by and let me know what you think.

Come and see what are the NEW TOOLS are for July. A New System.

I sold some of these last night.

I love making cards and I do have a lot of fun making cards.  I have frinds that love them that wants to buy them from me and for that I'm very grateful for that.  I still make Birthday cards for the ladies in our church and I'm grateful for that.


As I'm setting here making these I ask my husband what he thinks.  I love this man of mine and he loves my cards and he is so helpful by telling me what I need to add something or not to add anymore.



Thanks for coming by and I hope you will leave me a comment and tell me what you think.

What would you use these FOR !

These two cards can be used for many different kind of yours.  "Thinking of you" could be for just missing someone, someone being sick, you lost a loved one.  It could just keep going on and on.

On this card you have a heck list that you can use to tell them what this card is all about.  About two or three months ago I brought some blings from JoAnn's and I use them on most of my card and it sure add's to the cards.
Thanks for coming by and I hope you wil enjoy what you see.

M & M Blondis - Red, White & Blondie

I love this site and I want to share what she does.  I love her recipes and she is good at what she does.
Thanks Leigh Anne

Note: If you have entered the Shabby Apple giveaway yet you have until midnight today – June 27th!
M & M Blondies
Can someone tell me how next week could possibly be July!! June flew by and I really don’t even feel like summer has started yet. Maybe it is our lack of warm sunshine?? Sixty degrees just doesn’t feel too summery but I can’t complain because the rain has been good for our garden and all the new plants we put in the ground in preparation for the Wedding Carnival. I really must share a few of the many projects I have been working for the Wedding Carnival soon!
We are planning a 4th of July get together with our neighbors out in the cul de sac. We pretty much do it every year except for the years we are at our beach house for the 4th and then we invite them down there. There will be lots of food, kids, fireworks and the ever popular potato gun!
Today’s recipe for M & M Blondies – Red, White and Blondie style may make an appearance at our 4th of July party.
M & M BLondies
I used the same blondie recipe I used for those yummy white chocolate and toffee blondies a few weeks ago. I just used M & M’s and white chocolate chips instead.
If you don’t care what your M & M color scheme is just replace the white chocolate chips with more M & M’s
Since you can find white M & M’s, the white chocolate chips filled in for the white part. I bought a regular bag of M & M’s and pulled out all the red and blue. There are a lot more blue M & M’s in a bag than there are red. I think we all need to let Mr. M & M know that next year he needs to come out with red, white and blue M & M’s for the 4th of July! Will someone please let him know.
M & M Blondies
Just mix up the dough and add in the M & M’s and chips.
M & M Blondies
I like to line my 9 x 13 with foil and then spray with some cooking spray to make removal from the pan a cinch.
M & M Blondies
After they are baked and cooled I drizzled some white chocolate over the top.

M & M Blondies
I had some fun 4th of July sprinkles so I added those on top for good measure too.
M & M Blondies
They are then ready to be cut and enjoyed! In all their patriotic goodness.

Guess who came for Breakfast?

I woke up this morning and I looked out in the back yard to see if the man that mows our lawn, see if he did a good job or not.  Out in the middle of the yard set this beautiful animal just setting and looking around. My husband went out to turn the water on and she didn't care if he came out or not.  But more he worked out there she did finally get up and left the yard.  I love it when they come and just set out there.



She acts like she has no cares in the world and she thinks she can rest anywhere she wants.  I'm glad that she likes my back yard to rest for a few hours.


Thank you for coming by and I hope you like what you see also.

Wishing you the best 4th.

Here is a few that I will be sending to friends and family wishing them the best 4th also. I'm having so much fun that it is even hard for me to stop and fix our dinner.  So after these few are shared then I will stop and fix dinner for my wonderful husband.


The one above and below this writing you will notice that I have added some black little blings to it to make it look like watermelon seeds. Our family always has watermelon for 4th of July day.  That is what makes that day for me.  The ribbon I have had for almost one year and I haven't used it until today.  I feel it was made just for summer fun time.



I hope you will enjoy these cards and how many of us send a note to our loved one just for the 4th.  I know I need to do more of them.


Thanks for coming by and I hope you will like what you see.

4th of July

We are having a big family reunion this 4th.  I have a cousin coming in that I haven't seen in about 40 years.  It well be a wonderful time to be able to have this get together. Also we will have a Birthday cake for my mother who will be 83 this 4th.  So I made her one of these cards.  The one I will give to her is the one that has "Happy 4th" on it.


I cut a oval out if the center of each of these cards and stamped the fire crackers onto another white piece of paper and put it behind the oval.  Then I high lighted the oval with some color to make sure I have color to the page.  I will put more together tonight and see what I will come up with.



Thanks for coming by and I hope you like what you see.

Buttons and pearls

The last for tonight and more for tomorrow.  I just learned a new trick that I want to put to work in another set of cards.  These was fun to make and thanks to my wonderful husband for his advice on some of these.  He keeps telling that I have talent but I'm not sure if that is true just yet.



The color of the cupcakes matches the paper.  Then the Buttons or Pearls off sets the other colors so they look good together.



Thanks for coming by and I hope you will like these also.  Tonight it was fun working on these.

Matching sets

Yes I'm at it again.  This time I made them just a lttle different.  Here is more of the birthday theme for all ages.


I was trying to match the paper backing with the paper with the cupcake on it.  Then to them different if I could.  I really had a lot of fun making these.  The next one I want to make is thinking of you or Thank you ones.




Thanks for coming by and I sure hope you will enjoy looking at these,

Thank you so much for picking my number.


I'm so excited can't wait until it comes.

We sure MISS Him!

Our first born grandson we sure miss him.  I think knowing we won't get to see him again until after he turns 18 and then his mother will get a hold of him and see if he wants to come for a visit.

Our daughter was married to his father for 5 years when she came home for a visit and we wouldn't let her go back.  She had so many bruises on her that it scared us.  But this young man was born while she was still married to him. Donovan was and I'm sure still a sweet little boy.  His father has told him so many lies about his mother that we all just pray that he won't believe them at all.


Donovan was about 4 months old in this and the next picture. He was a very big boy but we still loved him more cause he was a very happy little guy.


When we went to court we tried very hard to keep him but his father was so dishonest that he lied to the court.  But we was told from the begining that the Florida Court was for the fathers and no matter what we do.  But we didn't give up until the Judge told us she wanted the boy to stay with the father.  The Judge had lied to us and told us she would never break up the two kids but she did it anyhow.


Donovan we will love you forever and for our family you pray for your safe keeping and we pray that we can see you later on in life.


Thanks for coming by and I hope you had a great week-end.  I'm not doing to good and neither is my husband but we are stil here.


Thanks for sharing with us..............
