It seems I never get this blog updated as often as I should. Tonight I was playing over at ScrapShotz where they had a lesson on Vignetting and wow, love the results!! The photo is of my little grandaughter one day while her and I were out for a stroller ride. Can't you just tell she loves being outside!!

This past week my sister and I were touring around the country side looking for old buildings and came along these gems. I would like to go back to take more another day.

We came upon two Canadian Geese wandering on the top of the ice.

of the favorite things around my house.
This is probably my favorite of them all, a picture of my Grandmother's daily diaries going way back. I love to sit and read about her daily life!! I also have many of my father's dairies going back from when he was in the War. One day I will take a picture of them too.

March 2 ~ My Photos of the Week

When I first started this "Photo A Day Challenge" I had really good intentions of doing it but somehow life is got in the way and I didn't get it done. The other day I wandered around my house taking pictures of some of my favorite things and here is what I came up with.

Okay this is getting a bit much, I think I will switch to "a Photo a Week"!!
Today I decide to take more pictures of the scrapbooking room. Here they are...
I love these cubes, they hold so much!! Everything has a home and each drawer is label. I really like the little square drawers, they hold all my colored items such as brads, eyelets etc. (they are stored in SU plastic stamp containers which works great!!!

The is my display above the white cubes.

Here is a peek inside one of the colored drawers.....

Our Boys Old Tree Fort!! Oh how I remember the days our boys played for hours on end, building, painting, playing guns and robbers in this fort. What would life be without a tree fort for two little boys? Maybe one day our grandchildren can enjoy countless hours playing in there as well!!

The veiw out my dinning room window. The old broken wheel barrow that you see is what my youngest son bought me at an auction sale...he was so proud to bring me home something and I loved it!! It sits outside in my front garden for everyone to see as they drive in our yard.

Meet "FURY" my childhood horse!! When I was a little girl I rode Fury everyday, as you can tell by how worn she is!! Every morning Fury and I watched my morning TV shows together, when I was upset I rode, when I was happy I rode, Fury was my bestfriend!! I still have her and she is has a special place not only in my heart but in our new home, on top of my planter that divides the dinning room and kitchen for everyone to see.
