Blog World Equals LOVE

 

I miss you guys too much  . . . you can really feel the absence of love when you're away from blogging.  Blog world has been only a blessing in my life.  I've been too busy getting use to living without Dave and working to survive.  I think when I bury my head in my work, it doesn't give me time to think about my life.   Since Dave has passed and gone to the other side, I've learned that all you need is love to survive.  Love is so powerful . . . even death cannot stop love, sometimes I can feel Dave all around me . . . love conquers all is such a true statement.  Everything else does not matter . . . 

My Beautiful Momma!

My Momma, sister Debbie and I, along with my daughter Cassandra went to Molly's in Old Town Upland today for an early morning breakfast and a little bit of shopping too . . . these are the best memories and always lots of chatter and laughter.  The only one that was missing was my oldest sister Jeri who lives in Texas . . . Happy Momma Day's Mom!

Happy Easter

Our God is alive  . . . all other god's remain in the ground, Blessings to all of us!

Never Forget The Blessing . . .

Cassandra turned 21 Big Ones!

My baby turned twenty-one years old on the 21st.  In the pic above she was barely turning one years old . . I love this pic with her Dad.

Growing up . . . . she sure loved her Daddy

Prom Night  . . .  another pic with her Daddy 

Some of her dearest friends she grew up with in this pic above . . . celebrating a birthday of one of her friends

Weekend traveling with her sorority buddies  . . . . Times sure flies . . . doesn't it . . . Wow!

We celebrated her birthday Saturday afternoon at home with family and friends.  Davey, my oldest son and I took Cassandra out to dinner on her official "birth day" this past Monday  . . . you were missed Brian ( middle son who now works and lives in Wisconsin).

Islands has the best burgers, I had the "Hula" burger which is loaded with mushrooms . . yum yum.

Of course you have to try those delicious french fries with the burger.

 Two of my beautiful babies . . my youngest and my oldest . . now you can figure out how old I am . . please don't remind me :O)

Happy Birthday Beautiful Cassandra!

Pray for Japan

As the news is unfolding . . . it is so sad what is happening in Japan . . where do you even begin to start after something as devastating as this.   Definitely prayer for direction and peace . . God's hand will be in this . . that's a given.

New Paint

Decorating and painting is always fun . . . exciting too!  I so need to make changes around here.  My friend Lili from Fearless Nesting made such an awesome change to her knotty pine . . take a peek at it.   I thought I would try it to mine too.  The knotty pine is on each side of my fireplace in the den.   I decided to go with "Eggshell" from Glidden paint.  Sort of a mustard color, I thought it would warm the room up a bit . . .  oh it has and then some :O)
