Pain in the Neck

This is me for the last 2 days. Wait, I know what you're thinking. I'm not the happy, cooking housewife. What am I referring to is the appearance of her having a stiff neck. It is very unnatural to have a stiff neck and pain. I feel like a robot.

I did hold my head upright enough to list this cottage. It wasn't easy.

I love how the pink and green go together. It reminds me of spring.

I will not be terribly upset if this cottage does not sell...just sayin'.

On the other hand, I will be terribly upset if this neck pain doesn't subside by tomorrow.
Ibuprofen, water, heating pad, and ice pack are my best friends today.

Hope you're having a fabulous day,

Julie

It's fr fr freezing...

Baby, it's cold outside. After an unusually warm start of winter, we are finally feeling the chill! Today's temperatures are a high of 15.

Time to post these cuties that I finished up last weekend. This Raggedy Ann colored cottage is for my sister. She decorates her tree for Valentines in Ann & Andy.


A sweet aqua and pink duo. These colors always remind me of cotton candy.

A new twist on Valentine colors. Red and Aqua really pop.

Two more Valentine cottages in traditional colors and shape.

Happy Valentine's Day..mwahhhh,

Julie

Glitter-fied

You cannot do any better for a gift that is crafty, thrifty, and glittery all in one.
From humble beginnings glittery things can be made.

Crafted these for the all "girls" in my family. Yes, they are made from small treat boxes left from my bosses' Christmas gift basket. I saved them from the horrible landfill.

Used my favorite color combination of aqua, pink, and white.

You did know that picket fences always make for a good neighbor?
It does!
Not that I have bad neighbors or a picket fence;)

They are so sugary sweet I could just bite one.

Never mind me saving the world one box at a time.
Look out people, I have glitter....

These are a few of my favorite things.

My favorite chair on the porch.

A very slight dusting of snow.

Picked up some nice evergreens on my Sunday walk.

Kane checking out the tractor we purchased for my dad.

Merry Christmas!

Autumn Catch Up

MY baby Jake turns 19.

Packed up all his stuff worldly possessions and saw him off to college.

Twenty minutes and he was already set up.

Parting shot with dad.

Parting shot with mom.
We haven't seen our son in two months!!
Next weekend he will be home for a few days.
I miss him.

My parents have reached a major milestone-Fifty years of marriage. This is their original wedding cake topper.

I was assigned the task of beautifying and updating it.
This is the revamped golden version.
The formal party is in a few weeks.
My task at hand is table favors, photo back drop, and card box.

Onward to Fall.

I just love my mini shovel I bought at my dad's yard sale.
A perfect size for my mini me size.

Spooky Halloween.

Mums are so beautiful.
I love all the colors there are to choose from.

Today was a great day to visit the local Flea Market.

I picked this little doggie for $2.00. He was pretty dirty.
I washed him ever so gently but he still lost a little more paint :(

After the Flea Market trip us girls and Caleb went to Buckley Homestead.

My niece Maria making her own candle.

Another trip and a dip.

One more time.

Some of the gang My daughter, Ashley, my nieces Jessi, Maria, and Catie.
The only boy of the group today was my great nephew, Caleb!

This picture makes me laugh.
Cowboy Character: Miss, can I see your camera.
Me: NO.
CC: Really?
Me: okay...
CC: Hold my sandwich.
Me: Can I eat your sandwich?
CC: NO!
Cowboy then takes picture of himself.
CC: Yup, that looks pretty good. That will be a dollar please.
Me: Nope.
CC: I'm just joshing with ya.
Me: I know.

Caleb fascinated with some hay.

Such a lovable sweet boy.

My daughter and niece and their pretty smiles.

Take two--just in case someone didn't smile in the first one.

Random shooting scenes throughout the day.

Off to the Indian Camp and then the school house.

My niece was pushed happy to help Dr. Quackenbush's Magic Show.

What a priceless look and a good sport.

Hope to be back in a few weeks to share photos of my parent's party.

Happy Autumn
