A MINI TRIP !!!!

We took a mini trip to California last Friday to see our kids and granddaughter. It was our daughters Birthday so we were able to be with her for the weekend. It is always so special to see them. When you live in Idaho and they live in Ca. it is hard to visit to often...:( So it was lots of Starbucks and eating out. :)
Here are a few photos of our trip....

Oregon Washington Trip

My husband and I took an extra day off last weekend and went to Washington and Oregon. I knew that Aleta was having her Flea Market that Sat. and really wanted to meet her and see the wonderful place that her and her husband Bill had purchased. What a breathtaking view of their property, and a wonderful show they put on. After we left their place we went to some antique stores in the Portland area before returning to our B and B that we were staying at. What a wonderful trip~~~


Aleta helping a customer. I just had to add this photo of her winning personality even with all that had happened that day... What a great gal..It was so nice to finally meet her in person.

This is a view in back of the property that Aleta and her husband own where they had the Flea Market on Sat...Beautiful !!!

Oh So True ~~~



I was looking at a BLOG that I came across in my ROMANTIC HOMES MAGAZINE and saw this caption that she had in her blog. It really touched me...



One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon instead of enjoying the roses blooming outside our windows today.

(Dale Carnegie)

Have a wonderful day !!!

"MOTHERS DAY"

Mothers Day…
As Mothers day approaches I have thoughts of my children and the many blessings and heartaches of being a mother. I must say it has been the most rewarding and also the hardest job I will ever have. Life seems to fly by and before you know it those precious little babies are grown and have babies of their own. Wow how does that happen so fast ~~~~Oh so many memories I have, and thoughts of what I could have done different or better. I think as parents we just have to learn as we go. At least that seems to be what we did. I guess all that matters is that they grow up taking with them bits and pieces of what you taught them and that they are healthy, hopeful and happy on this journey that we all travel…



My son Shawn and myself…



My daughter Kim and myself…



Kim and Shawn in their younger days. :)



Kim and I in Branson Mo. last year.



My special Mother and myself….



I hope that all of you Mothers out there have a WONDERFUL MOTHERS DAY !!!
