I just love Birthday's

It is finally Alexis Birthday week. A long with a couple of outfits, and the Album, I put together a hat box with play jewelry and things for her hair, and a boa, so with her sister they can play dress up. She is having a all girls Tea Party too.

Ones a Month

While looking through some old pictures I came across this label and it brought back some not so fond memories. This bottle of liquid was the most horrible tasting stuff. It was for cramps, so believe me after a couple of times...no one knew when I had any problems. I think it was colored, flavored alcohol and who knows what else. But my Grandmother always had this on the self, it was kinda like Caster Oil, they gave it to you weather you needed it or not. I was wondering if anyone else remembered this being in their life???????

The Park around the corner

I have past by this rock that looks like a grave marker to many times to count. But the fact that it has my name on it always brought a little giggle. This is a beautiful little park just around the corner from our farm. Kids play in it all the time. I have seen students sitting under the tree's reading. I really like that it is called a Meadow...so on a evening that I have very little to share, this is it. My ego couldn't pass it by! TEE-Hee

Album for Alexis

My Granddaughter Alexis is going to be 6 April 18th. It has been fun to make little albums for my family. I find that a dollar store is the best place to buy these little albums. They cost so little but you can do alot with them. I find a back ground that I think works for a little theme and then collage whatever I think talks to the person I am giving the album to. So this is one year in Alexis life...I did 50 pages filled with little events that I thought would have meaning to her. She loves pictures, so I knew this would be a fun gift. Knowing her, it will get alot of use.
These pictures are not good, but I thought you would get the idea.




Avery is Alexis's little sister...they are different in everyway you can think of, but they have a great time when they are not fighting.

Filling Stations

This is from the Dotson family....With the price of Gas going up daily this was fun to find today.

We are doing everything we can to save gas....one trip to the Market instead of three...just little things like that to save money. I think this little Filling Station is so cute...I am trying to find out more about the owner. I am sure it was a very distant cousin.
