Yesterday's Heart

My intention was to post a heart everyday. Yesterday got by me without me posting something - so here's to yesterday.

You gotta love buttons . . .

Buttons, buttons, buttons . . . never enough buttons.

Hearts and Smiles

Happy February!
Simply in a good mood these days . . .
These two were out playing tennis while we were there last night. They were having so much fun. The picture isn't very good - but I had to post it anyway. They were just way silly - and I had to share. I love silliness!

Love . . . Everyday!!!

February means . . . HEARTS!!!!!
We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.

Just for fun . . .

Lily took this picture of herself . . . she gets hold of Jennifer's phone and snaps away. (Amazing what a two year old know how to do these days.) Jennifer couldn't resist - had to put a hat on this one. You can't be around Lily without smiling . . . with or without the hat. I would probably get more things done . . . if I would quit playing with my phone. : )

Love the Look!

I looked up from my desk and saw this combination . . . her explanation - she was trying to stretch out her shoes. Thanks for the laugh Marcia. Nothing wrong with this look at all - although thoughts of the wicked witch do come to mind.

Especially cute on this plate! I can't believe she is 27 years old!

Yesterday - Sunshine!!!!

It was so beautiful yesterday! 53 degrees and sunshine. We haven't had a sunny day in quite some time. It is foggy this morning . . . but hopefully the sun will break through later in the day.

Sunday Drive

We decided to take a ride on Sunday . . . ate lunch at "The Hitching Post" (Great Food!!!!!)
It was nice to get out of the valley and into the sunshine. Stopped at Poison Switch on the way back home.

We decided that we have to come back here and have a picnic. A little chilly this time of year - so maybe when it is warmer.
So many fun little things to see on our way home.
This one being my favorite . . . reminded me of my Aunt Hess!

Jake and Lily

Not a great picture of the tree - or of Jake and Lily for that matter. But an ok picture of the tree that at least reminds me how beautiful it was - in all it's pinkness. And just the picture of Jake and Lily together makes me smile. She loves uncle "Jabub". We all love "Jabub".

Happy New Year!

Let's see if I can't keep this blog up for awhile again. Call it a New Year's Resolution . . . or an attempt at getting my life back to normal. This past year has been a rough one, but things are much better these days. I am starting to feel like myself again and IT FEELS GOOD!!!!!

October!

October is here! I would like to say since it is already 5 days into the month - that I have already started putting up decoratons for Halloween, but I can't. I am hoping that I get to that tonight. We are having wonderful Fall weather!!! Especially nice - after last week when we still dealing with 100 degrees. I love this time of year!
