Bye Bye Antiques...

Well. My antique sale was a success! I was almost sold out by noon! the best part was seeing the huge smile on my husband's face as he looked around the empty garage. He hasn't had a garage to call his own in a very long time. It felt really good to purge! get rid of it all and have a clean slate! On to the next chapter in my life...I will let you know when I find out what that is! Until then I am happy holding my little niece tightly on my lap...

Inspiration Friday...

I saw this cute garden apron in the Romantic Home Sewing book and I want it! The golden rule in Minnesota is to plant no earlier then Memorial Day...I think I might have some time to whip this together...Happy planting everyone!

OVERWHELMED....

Do any of you ever feel.... OVERWHELMED this time of year? My to do list is way to long...I spent the day yesterday ( well, not all day...while Addi napped) cleaning the garage and pricing all my left over antiques from my business for my garage sale on Sat. Here is a picture...what a mess! I had to stop and enjoy my tulips, the weather here has been gorgeous! But as I was taking the picture I looked up and noticed my trim needs painting bad! (add that to the list). After the garage sale it is on to adding all new soil to my gardens and the best part...planting!! Take time today to enjoy the tulips!! take care,Gail

a good weekend...

What a beautiful weekend! the weather was fantastic...sunshine and 80 both days. We had our nephew Logan's first communion today...He looked so handsome walking up the isle in church today, I cried. And yesterday was my Dad's burial, we had his funeral last January and he was cremated so yesterday we had his graveside service. We all gathered at my house afterwards and this is a picture of my Mom(she is 87!) and my little niece Addison...Babies make everything better! she gives my mom so much joy...I hope everyone had a great weekend! I think I am safe now leaving the flip flops out of storage! Take care....

I'm a big girl now..

I remember taking pictures of Addi when I first starting taking care of her...has she grown or what? We are still having so much fun together and now that the weather is nice, we are outside a lot! so I don't have as much time to blog as I used to...oh well.

Inspiration Friday...

Here's a picture of the kitchen in the movie "Somethings gotta give" I loved that movie, I think it was because of the house! all the white woodwork and dark wood floors and of course on the ocean...what a dream.

Here are a couple more requested pictures..(see post below)
