Love his work and the message

Timothy R. Botts is a MASTER calligrapher and artist.
Needless to say, I adore his work.
With Easter right around the corner,
I thought you might like to see a snippet of his work.
They tug on my heartstrings, that is for sure.

While I enjoy my neutrals, I could fill my house with all
of these colorful creations.
Couldn't you?
To see more of his amazing work, you can visit here.
P.S. Happy St. Patrick's day

A little under the weather so..
.jpg)
Yesterday, I did a stint in the ER (I'll be just fine)
and as a result, I think I will be doing some re-posting this week.
Saving that energy-hehe.
I thought you might like to see a post from last March.
Love these diffusers and they are so easy to make.
In fact, they are still going strong a year later.
I hope you will give them a try.
If you haven't entered The French Elements giveaway,
there is still time. Just click on the button on the sidebar

Have a wonderful day.

A surprise for us and a surprise for you (TFE Giveaway)

we received a great gift. A lovely surprise that
means the world to both of us.

Mom H. knew that I love old photo's, ephemera, etc.
This is just a sampling of what we were able to bring home.

Many of the photo's, hubs had never seen.
I don't have many photo's of myself as a child and I think
that could be why I have been "a crazy clicker",
always taking pictures of my boys and grans.
A legacy to pass on (or so I think).

I love this photo that ran in the Denver paper.
Mom and her BFF (Kathryn came to the funeral).
Two bathing beauties!

How sweet is this?
Autographed by Pee Wee King.
Mom H. had a piano and as a kid I took lessons.
I hadn't played in years and tried it out.
What a hoot! Not pretty but it had been decades.
What wonderful family treasures to bring home.
I love surprises.
Now one for you......

Last year I started doing a monthly giveaway
for followers.
Well, it is a new year and a new day.
In the past, I have given away TFE pillows, Chanel goodies,
Items brought back from France.
To be honest with you, I'm not sure what this giveaway will be
BUT
it will be full of French goodness and love.

Enjoy!
I hope you have a weekend filled with laughter, love, and sunshine.

What do these pictures have to do with France?

Jeff has received his orders and after his 2 month
period in Texas, (provided the military doesn't change things up)
my dear family will be moving to HAWAII.
I'm still digesting the fact that Jeff is in the Army.
I know, I'm slow-hehe.
Dorothy will not be able to move right away because she'll be too
far along in her pregnancy.
So Dorothy and the ladies and NewBaby2010. ver.4.0
will be moving as soon as
her Doctor will allow.
What a year this has been.
