Dressing Girls





JCrew kids

All the above outfits are from JCrew kids.
I wish they made the shoes in women's sizes.
 How cute is that ruffled top and dress?
and every girl needs a 
Wonderful World of Fashion 
drawing book in their Easter basket.
Don't you agree?

Dressing Boys














Let's be honest.
Dressing little boys is not nearly as much fun,
as dressing little girls.

But if money is no object,
shopping at JCrew in the kids section makes it fun.
How cute is that denim shirt with the pocket missing?
and the tennis shoes,
are
Jack Purcell's.
I love Jack Purcell tennis shoes.
I own three pair.
My favorite tennis shoe, of all time.
Except for the Adidas I wore when I was dating my hubby.
He owned a pair, and I think I instantly fell in love with him
because of his tennis shoes (not really, but close).
That and he made me laugh all the time.
I bought myself a pair and loved those shoes.
What memories...

Where do you shop for kids?

My Little Farmer





His daddy wanted a few pics
of his son out in the lettuce fields.
I think they are adorable with his big brown eyes,
just like his mommy's
and 
would you look at those beautiful rows of lettuce?
Nice job Mike.

Don't you just love this belt?



and all the bracelets?

You can never have to many turquoise bracelets.

The belt is definitely going on my wish list.

You can find the belt in the Whispering Pines catalog.

Instagram on Fat Tuesday


Day 22
a spray painted red cross that hangs
in the office


Day 23
an Indian rug given to me by my Mom and Dad
over an old wool blanket
that was made from my Dad's wool


Day 24
my cement rooster and chicken
from my postal carrying days

It's only taken me almost 2 months to complete
the 28 day challenge...
not bad
for someone who has always left the picture taking
to her hubby...
he really is the master of everything.
