Wishy Washy Spring

philosophy

Spring
is my least favorite season
the weather during spring is so wishy washy
it can't make up its mind
cold hot and windy
all in the same day
But what I do love about spring,
 summer is right around the corner
and I love the summer time
swimming, ice cold watermelon, sitting on our back porch
 and drinking lots of ice tea
until it's so freaking hot I can't take one more day of hot weather
and I am wishing for fall and sweaters

I went to Ulta to buy Philosophy's
field of flowers orange blossom shower gel
it smell's heavenly
and at the counter they had these little
tubs of yellow lip gloss
I am so thankful for my impulse buy
lemon drop lip balm
it smells and taste yummy
I will probably end up with chapped lips
because I can't quit licking them

Women Changing the World







sorry for the blurry pics
still learning how to take photos



This past weekend
I attended a blogging conference
that was put on by some very talented women
I learned so much
my head is spinning with ideas
One of the things that stood out for me
is how generous and caring the other bloggers were
real women making changes in the world
for the greater good
seeing a need and fulfilling that need
with their generosity
these women have talents that reach far beyond a blog...
I truly believe that their
future endeavors are going to be amazing
 paired  with
kind and giving hearts and humor
I don't think there is anything they won't be able to accomplish
I feel honored to have been a part of this event

ps
A great big thank you
to Lindsey and Coley for this amazing event
All your hard work did not go unnoticed

Quotes from a Great Man

One of my favorite estate sale finds


It is impossible
to rightly govern a nation
without
God and the Bible

Guard against the impostures
of pretend patriotism

Truth will ultimately prevail
where there is pains to bring it to light

These quotes are from
our first President
George Washington
how relevant they seem to today's world

Happy Valentine's Day



Love is Always the Answer
it would do me good, and save me some trouble
if I could remember this

Happy Valentine's Day

A Box of Chocolates, Please

I told my hubby
I wanted a box of chocolates
 for Valentine's day
but what I would really like
is to visit this cabin
in Norway
