Having some fun in Newport Beach





"Smithsonian Museum Day" was spent at Newport Beach today with my sweet friend Nancy and her little ones, the pic above is Nancy with her youngest, Gregory (only 2 months old) who is adorable. The weather couldn't have been nicer, high 70's and breezy aka "California style".  Lunch and a ride on the ferry was so much fun too.  The exhibit was small but nice, enough to keep the little ones entertained.

Thought I would post this funny pic of Buttons with her crown on . . . I think she really liked it, really didn't fuss when I took the pic.  Buttons is going to be 10 years old.  She's slowing down a little now, doesn't jump as often as she used to.  Such a sweet dog and gentle with the little ones.


 Romans 12:10 Love one another with brotherly affection. Out do one another in showing honor.

Good Read

Found this saying on Pinterest early this morning.  I actually experience this with a sweet friend yesterday and it is so true, there is something so beautiful about honesty.   Something to think about for sure.  Enjoy your day :O)

Finally Finish


I had this cross stitch project that I have been working on for a very long, long, time . . . if I mention how long again I would be so embarrassed for sure.  Anyways, love the way it turned out.  Here is some pics of it.  Anytime I turn a cross stitch project into a pillow with rick rack, my concern is I will not make it with a straight seam.  Well by the look of these photos, I think I got lucky this time.  Its a Mother and daughter theme, so wish I knew at that time when I started it that I was going to have a daughter with brunette hair.  Love it anyways.  I displayed it with some Fall decor but it actually will go in my entry on a bench for Springtime next year.  Take a peek at the pics.  Hope you are enjoying this beautiful time of the year.  Blessings :O)



Check out that straight seam . . . yes happy days for sure!
