Actually, my computer weren't allow me to post anything. I needed an upgrade to my "old" IMAC. Courtesy of my son Davey, who is an IT Administrator, it sort of helps when you need your computer worked on. So blessed to have him. Anyways, I'm back in business!
I have a new granddaughter now and a newly engaged daughter. I absolutely cannot enjoy my granddaughters enough. They lived in the bay area, I'm down here in South Orange County and over the past year, I've flowned to the bay area several times just to visit and not miss out on anything happening in their lives. I truly love being called "Grandma J". I'll be flying up there again in October for little Ruthie's lst Birthday on Halloween Day. Finally found my costume, thought I lost it. I packed it away with my Halloween decor last year. I'm still debating if I should used my witches' costume or not. I certainly don't want to scare my grandbabies. I even have some green foundation for my face, always fun to dress up for Halloween.
We'll be planning a wedding again soon. Waiting for more details first from my daughter, Cassandra. I think she still is in shocked from getting engaged. So happy for her and Josh. They make a super cute couple. I'm already thinking about Cassandra's bridal shower, I'm thinking "Swans", getting excited already.

Lots of blessing and love sent your way, enjoy this new season! xoxo

Has it been a while since I posted anything?? Quarantine time flies I guess, when you are extremely bored with absolutely not enough to do. Thank goodness my babies, Brian, Cassi and Parvati came down from the bay area to visit. We all went down to Dana Point and visited the San Clemente Outlets. Cassi, Parvati and I did some shopping too. I was able to take this pic of my kids and Rexy. Fun times but went way too fast. I so wished we all lived closer. Brian and Cassi are expecting, baby is due November 5th, Election Day. Our family is over the top excited!</div>

I think all of us have done a little bit of internet shopping, it almost makes us too lazy to do anything, especially with free shipping makes it even better, but I’ve been probably shopping too much, lots of wishing with that too. I found this purse that stopped me in my tracks . . . maybe something to wish for at Christmastime or might even gift it to myself. Tory Burch has the cutest bags, for sure. Well, I decided I would weave my hair instead, not as expensive as the purse . . . lol!<br />

As long as I’ve known Rexy, he has always drank tea in the morning, me always coffee, I’m sort of not drinking it as often anymore. This warm weather we have been having lately, has sort of died down a little, so Rexy and I have been sitting in the patio in the morning. Maybe the coffee thing is, me getting older. Well, I recently had a birthday, which after 60, you just don’t count them anymore. My daughter, Cassandra bought be this beautiful statue for my birthday, part of the Willow Tree Collection, this one is called “Close to me”. I love it and its looks absolutely beautiful on the dresser. Thank you baby-girl!</div>

As usual, I always have a little bit of cross stitch with my decor. This is an old one, but one of my favorites. I’m sorry, I can’t quite remember the designer, nor the name of the pattern. My cow always seem to stay out all year long. That’s a “Buzza Motto” pic by J.B. Donnie. My Mom, has an amazing collection of these, displayed on a wall in her hallway. She has collected them for years, as long as I can remember. </div>

Rexy and I often go for walks in the neighbor, we came across this tiny sparrows nest. I had to find something to set it in, a tiny watering pot. I have tons of pinecones all over the house, we collected a bunch of them in 2016 and they have held up pretty good. When we brought them home, I baked them and added some cinnamon to them also, can’t really smell the cinnamon anymore. </div>

I think this cross stitch from Blackbird Design, “Octopus Garden”, a Beatles Tribute, will be like my cow, stay out all year long. Loving the colors, looks good with the kitchen too. </div>

This red birdhouse has been with me for many years, good memories for my kids when they come home for the holidays . . . my favorite time of the year. The cross stitch below is by Kathy Barrick, her designs are amazing. This one is called “Little Lamb”. Fun stitch for sure.</div>

Decided to stitched this at the last moment, being that the country has been on all of our minds lately, I was feeling patriotic. I’ve always wanted to stitch this one, its been around for a long time, by Blackbird Designs, “Summer Jubilee”. I trimmed it with chenille, the color is “Union Jack”, I displayed it with my black bird cage in the entry on my black dresser. The bird cage was a lucky find at an antique store up north. </div>

Funny the sign says, “Liberty Days”, should it say “Last Days” maybe, something to be concerned about maybe. As Christians we are well taken care of . . . being on God’s team is a whole lot safer!<br />
Lots of blessings and hopefully I’ll post something sooner and not later xoxo<br />
<br />
<b>Colossians 3:15-17</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, sing to God with gratitude in your hearts. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. </b><br />

Well Happy New Year 2020! I have a funny feeling about this upcoming year, something exciting is going to happen, don’t know what it is yet . . . but I can feel it LOL! <br />
<br />
Started this year off with surgery, don’t ask me where all that excitement above came from . . . but my intuition is usually right on. What kind of surgery? You know, the big “H” surgery, women usually have it after 60. Anyways, feeling very sore and bored at the same time. Been sewing a lot lately getting ready for Valentines Day. <br />
<br />
Hearts are one of my favorite things to make . . . some of these have been with me forever, always fun to pull out and display. <br />

This heart above reminds me so much of my Grandma . . . a mustard colored heart with some vintage grosgrain beige ribbon. My Auntie and Mom came for a visit and that lovely little heart went home with Auntie. It always feels good when someone falls in love with something you created.<br />
<br />
Sure appreciated the flowers, the visits and gifts I have been receiving since I’ve had the surgery. It was such a nice feeling and felt so loved. <br />

Rexy and I went antique shopping at the Lake Elsinore Historic District about a month ago and found some goodies out there. One of our finds, were these simple metal frames, added some paper art for Valentines and loved how they turned out.<br />

Here we go!Decorations are up, shopping is in session and the kids are coming . . . that always makes me happy! Are we there yet, are we actually enjoying the holidays? Sometimes it just comes way too fast and when it does arrive it’s over before we know it. Sort of a downer when you think about it.<br />
<br />
I’ve finally gotten to that age where I just want to enjoy the moment, not think too much about the future and have more gratitude in my heart for the life I’ve been given and the people that are in it that I loved so much. Gratitude always brings blessings!<br />

Lately, when I’ve posted on my blog, haven’t really shared the word, as often as I should have. I know when you stayed prayed up, you just feel better, everything feels better. Staying close to God brings a lot of peace. I have to admit, I’ve move away from reading the word, attending church and having a daily devotion and wordless conversations with God. My goal for 2020 is to return back to that lifestyle again, but in my heart I feel it’s going to be different this time. I’ve been an empty nester for awhile now and fully retired. I was hoping to return back to work, but maybe not. God has a game plan for me and I’m waiting to see what it will be with anticipation of course LOL!</div>

Rexy helped me with the tree yesterday. I always select a Noble Fir styled tree, it strong enough to hold my ornaments, especially the heavier ones and I love the style of it. That afghan was once my beloved dog, Button’s blanket, when she passed away I wash it and pulled all the dog hair out of it and now used it as a tree skirt. Love her and miss her so much, she was such a loyal and awesome dog.</div>

Hope you are all enjoying this beautiful Christmas season, if it was not for him aka “Jesus”, we wouldn’t be experiencing the beauty of this season. God makes everything truly beautiful and times it just right, trust him. Hopefully, I’ll post some more pics soon. Blessings! xo</div>

This year we are not staying home to host a Thanksgiving dinner. The newlyweds in the family are hosting Thanksgiving this year. So looking forward to traveling up north to spend Thanksgiving with my middle son, Brian, Cassi and Pavarti. I will be taking up some goodies too. Brian and Cassi love to cook, this should be a fun adventure for sure. Cassi and I will probably do a little antique shopping, Yes!<br />

Rexy and I went antique shopping in Lake Elsinore Historic District, some of best antique shops up that way. Found this adorable toy cash register, which still works and also came with some play money inside, love it. It fully decorated and ready to go.<br />

Of course, a little bit of Christmas cross stitch too, these were fun to do. They’re sitting in a old photograph box. The lock is broken on it, but I still bought it anyways. I couldn’t resist that red paper lining inside.<br />

My dolls are always ready to go out and be displayed, no Christmas decorating is out yet, but I love to prepare for it. Sometimes it’s so hard to wait. Sometimes I wonder what I would do if we didn’t have holidays. That’s what I’m all about, besides my kids aka adult kids, LOL! Have a beautiful Thanksgiving with your family and friends, God Bless!<br />

The pic above are my children aka adult children, which is why I’ve always gone plum crazy around the holidays . . . just to make them happy, but I actually think its me now that gets happy LOL! My oldest, Davey will be 36 years old this November. Where has the time gone? I’ve had some of the best memories with these kiddos. This picture will always tug at my heart and I put it out every Halloween.<br />

Years ago, my Mom and I found the cutest gift shop, I can’t remember the name of it in Ontario, Ca. I bought so many wonderful things from this shop. She had these amazing wooden signs for all the seasons. I have several of them and have enjoyed them all. You really can’t find gift shops like that anymore. Well, enjoy this Halloween season and get your “spooky” on! Blessings xo</div>

Here she is . . . my replacement Spring doll for my kitchen rack that I decorate every season. My Mom loves my dolls that I create and she wanted my blue and white Spring doll. I just loved her, but I can never say no to my Mom when she wants one. I offered her the Wedding Day doll but she wanted the blue and white Spring doll for sure.<br />
<br />
They are all so sweet and I love each one of them dearly. They have a very fresh look to them and I know the pics don’t really show that. It probably weren’t hurt if I purchased a good digital camera, something to think about in the future. These pics are taken with my iPhone 8. <br />

Actually I’m glad Mom didn’t take the Wedding Day doll, I felt that one belong to my future daughter in law, Cassi. I gave it to her before she returned home after the Wedding Shower. I’ll post some pics from that event soon. I was so pleased how that event turned out.<br />

Spring is definitely in the air! It seems as I get older, time moves quicker and the body moves slower . . . LOL! Don’t often post too much anymore. So many bloggers have moved on, but I still enjoy posting.<br />
<br />
I wasn’t able to say or post anything earlier until it was announced. My middle son, Brian is getting married and I couldn’t be more happier for him and Cassilynn. Funny thing, I now will have a daughter in law named Cassilynn and a daughter named Cassandra. This will be fun . . no, I love it!<br />
<br />
Rexy and I have been having fun with the kids, having breakfast with Cassandra and Josh at “The Snooze” food is good there.<br />

Wanted to post some pics of Springtime around the Homestead. I’m getting ready to give Cassilynn a Wedding Shower. Been doing a lot of planning and purchasing for that event which is taking place at the Homestead early May 2019. I’m so excited. As you all know I love to decorate and craft. Doing it for someone else . . . no problem. Doing it for one of my own, scary to say the least. I will post some pics in the weeks ahead of the wedding shower and wedding. <br />

When Rexy and I were up north at the Paradise Fire, I found this adorable shop in Oroville called Mary Lake Thompson. I purchased this little bird there along with some other cute stuff. <br />

Finish some more cross stitch “pink on pink”, I added some green for St. Patricks day. I still have it out for Easter now. I was blessed enough to find a perfectly “right shade of pink” frame to put the cross stitch in. <br />
<br />
The weather has been beautiful lately, we got some time in on the bike too!<br />

Hope you are enjoying Springtime . . . I know I am. Blessings, xoSandy, Sisters of Seasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11462898910333672431noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2354957594662548238.post-48510467339691220262019-01-26T17:59:00.000-08:002019-01-26T17:59:18.663-08:00 “A Magical Visit"I recently visited the bay area for a special visit. I’ll share more of that special visit with you in a later post. I couldn’t wait to share my first visit to Wendy Addison’s magical shop “Theatre of Dreams" in Port Costa, California. Even with all the rain the bay area received that weekend, it was so worth the visit, made it even better. I’ve been a fan of Wendy Addison for a long time. She inspires me always with her creations. To actually meet her in person was a special treat.<br />

I’ve officially retired and now its about enjoying my life and doing a little bit more creating and some traveling too, not like I don’t do enough now. Visiting Wendy’s shop was a nice way to start. Getting inspired again always feels right. <br />

Port Costa is a tiny vintage town, it was a “over the hill and through the woods” feeling driving there. When you come upon this little town, it’s a total surprise. The weather was cloudy and cool, but so pretty too out that way.<br />

Lets not forget about Santa, this year I added a toy stove I found at a vintage swap meet here in Mission Viejo. Always fun to put this display out. These Santa’s are actually candy containers. I like to surprise my kids aka adult kids with candy in them LOL!<br />

Still adding some some touches here and there, but loving it. As much as I try to be simple, it never turns out that way. There’s just something about Christmas that’s so exciting. Cozy is always good, isn’t it?<br />

Oh Boy!Loving this time of the year . . . just can’t wait as usual. Since moving here to Mission Viejo. I have found some wonderful places to shop. One of them is the monthly vintage market at Saddleback College. I have a nice collection of vintage holiday decorations. Using vintage toys and worn vintage tin containers make the cutest displays for collections. I found this adorable children’s stove from Empire toys with the electric plug still attached and in fair condition. Check out the plug, cutest part of the stove.<br />

Also, found this blue oriental candy tin, Rex was able to remove the white paint that was splatter on it, still able to use it. Hard to see, gold crane birds are part of the design against the blue color.<br />

Oh Boy!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

These seasons certainly can't move any quicker than they are now . . . didn't we just say good bye to the holidays? My oldest Davey, came for a visit this week. It gave me a good excuse to start decorating for Fall around the Homestead. I have a little coffee/tea area in my kitchen that I really enjoy decorating a touch. I certainly have a love for pine cones. Rexy and I collected several around the area where we live about two years ago.<br />

Thought I would update . . . haven't really posted anything lately since early Spring. It's always fun decorating the homestead, but lately I really haven't done much. Little touches here and there. Anyways, thought I would post a few pics. Some Independence Day decorations below, stuck a couple these pinwheels in a red vase and called it a day . . . lol! Made these last year, probably should make some more. My go to paper store closed unexpectedly and so miss it. Those's kind of specialty stores seem to be leaving us now. Need to find a new one soon.<br />

This was one of the first cross-stitch projects I completed when Rexy and I started our relationship. We spent lots of time at the beach walking the trails. This was a perfect pattern. Fun to display in the Summer time.<br />

Succulents are the way to go in California . . . super easy and lots of variety too. I absolutely love having lots of flowers too . . . the soil here is sort of hard to work with thou, I seem to do better with potted flowers. I guess this could be a good thing . . . it keeps them looking fresh changing them out every couple of months. </div>

The pic of Rexy standing by the “rust bucket” as we called this old car of his, which he was heart-broken when he sold it a couple of weeks ago. I just happened to take this picture of him with his beloved car prior to selling it. The car actually belonged to his Mom. He bought the car from his parents about 28 years ago and continued to drive it all this time. This was part of his Valentines Day present along with the cute little pig . . . he has a small collection of pigs that he loves. He really loved the picture. </div>

My favorite memorie for Valentines Day was writing love letters to my kids when they were little. They have never forgotten that . . . I think every parent should do that for their kids, it’s a beautiful memorie for them. I’m glad I did that for my kids.</div>

This year started off on a "bittersweet time" in my life . . . we loss my stepdad at the end of 2017 to Alzheimers. We celebrated his life with a memorial in his honor two weeks ago at my brother's home. Earlier in the year 2017, we also loss my oldest sister Jeri to kidney cancer. </div>

We often get so caught up in this crazy season . . . I know I do. It always good to slow down and just appreciate how beautiful this season really is. Sometimes I make myself a cup of coffee and walk around the house and enjoy all my Christmas decorations from over the years. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I don’t always have the room or really desire to put everything out every year. It seems like each year I put less and less out. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Slow down and listen just to the silent of this season . . . it’s beautiful! Blessings, xo</div>

<b><i>After they had heard the king, they went on their way and the star they had seen in the east went ahead of them until it stopped over the place where the child was. When they saw the star, they were overjoyed. On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of good and of incense and of myrrh.</i></b></div>

My dolls are not everyone's favorite but I love them . . . never get tired of making them . . . thats for sure. Rexy tells me they are unique . . . skinny head with a big body, that's my style LOL!<br />
<br />
My kids are way to big now, but every year I sing "Santa Claus is Coming To Town" to them. I have sung this song to them since they were little ones and they would always smile and laugh, good memorie for sure. Sure do miss those days!<br />

"better not pout" was the perfect saying for this doll and a heart with some holly along with a red pom pom too. I added some antique lace for her collar. I love rummage sales, always looking for unique sewing extras. I found this lace years ago and finally got to used some.<br />
