The past year


has been a doozie. The good news is that I made it through my daughter getting married and moving to Louisiana, another grandchild (Boston) coming into our lives, my babys senior year of high school and turning 53! I remember when I was younger and the days seemed so long-back when I was a kid that is. Then I remember when I was first married and how I couldn't wait for my kids to get a bit bigger so I could experience all that I saw was in the future.
After I divorced my first husband and remarried I started all over. But meeting Scott was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. I have learned what real love is-how to give and receive. I have slowed down and taken one day at a time. And I have learned that now the days go by ever so quickly that I feel I will run out of time before I get everything I want to accomplished.
Most of all I have learned what a true friend is. I have made some wonderful friends and I appreciate them all! I have learned how great life is. Each day is indeed a gift from God and I so happy to be living it. I am healthy and employed and happy. I don't want more than that!
I will start off by posting a card I made for my daughters 19th birthday in May. I lifted a bit of it from somewhere on the WWW (can't remember where). It was easy and simple.
May you have a happy day today and every day :-)

Baby Shower Invites


I will soon be a grandma again-this time to a little boy. How exciting is that? I have discovered that I like grandchildren a lot more than I like having my own kids-LOL Not really, but they sure are wonderful-will they be that way when they become teenagers? Here are the invitations I made for the baby shower. I will not show the inside as it has all the personal information but I used Word to write up the information and printed it out onto white cardstock. I was pleased with them. What fun it is to make cards.

Thank you for stopping by.
