I hate when you are in the middle of taking pictures and the dang batteries go dead and low and behold, you don't have anymore and the rechargable ones are in the kids toys and you don't have anymore! POO! So I'll post about a new collage and a couple of pics of my daughte and her friend and my niece being free as a bird teens! Oh to be a teen again!! NOT!!! I wouldn't want to go there ever again!! To much pressure!!

Garden Party

A new collage for the Green Paper Challenge. I was thinking of a Garden Party for this one. I do love the way it turned out!

This is a pillow I was working on for my mother to take to a friends 40th anniversary party. I took the picture from the invitation of them when they were 17! I scanned it and enlarged it and printed it out on iron on paper. Added a tag and a rusty old key and some ribbon and muslin roses and there ya go! They loved it! Forty years is a long time to be married! They have been married as long as I've been alive! Of course I also had to post a picture of our crazy cat Binks playing in a pile of yellow tulle!

I visited a new antique store a few days ago and found this little book. I have no clue as to what it is. I thought maybe a bible, just not sure. I don't even know what language this is. But I thought it was beautiful though. I also found some wonderful lace and some really awsome old stamps. Love these stamps. They are from around here from the post office and some old business ones. This was my find for the weekend I tell ya!

Well my Meagan got her braces off this week. So happy they turned out beautiful! They actually came off a little earlier than wanted too do to crap that sometimes you just can't help! But it still makes ya mad! But she looks beautiful and that's all that matters!

There is nothing like taking pictures after a summer shower. well it was really a thunderstorm...but I really do enjoy it. Everything gets a good washing and everything is all fresh and new!

Summertime....I love it. If it could stay summer all the time it would be fine with me. I guess maybe I need to move back to Florida! yesterday was my birthday....40yrs old. Blah. I don't feel 40,but what is supposed to feel like anyway? But all in all I had a great birthday. Parents came for dinner and of course the kids were in the pool! So all in all yea, it was a good birthday!
