"I GOT MY PRIZES"!!!

Look at the sweet little cameo that was part of

"my treasures"

from Linda at Robins Egg Blues

The sun is shinning and I got a sweet little package in my mail box ... It's a special day on my corner .... Look at all the 'toys' I get to play with ... I'm trying to think of something to make using all my beautiful things ... hmmmm? ... I'm sure some of you gals could just whip something up without batting an eye.... It may take me a few days to come up with something, but I promise to post a picture of it as soon as I do.

Thank you so much Linda for all the pretty little things .. I hope you will all go check out Linda's blog and see what she's giving away now. ..

A great big "THANK YOU" Linda ... and a GREAT BIG (( HUG))

Hello Betty!

It is so wonderful to met you! I was checking out my Laundry Detergent post, because I need to make some more (it's been almost 8 mos. since I made it last)! I still have a few loads left...it last a long time around here! Anyhoo, I noticed you made a comment the last of December! Thank you and so thrilled you made the detergent! You will never go back to store bought, huh?! When I take it "sniff" of the soap, it makes my day! Thank you for your kind words about my blog! I sure have fun with it! Oh my goodness Betty! I LOVE YOUR STOVE! RED and vintage looking! You lucky girl! And you have a beautiful family!

Have a wonderful day!
Hugs,
Maryjane

BIRTHDAYS

January, February and March are our "birthday months" ... We have so many birthdays at this time of the year that it makes your head spin ... Although every single one of them is so important, we sometimes just can't celebrate each one like we should .. But we all know we are special and that we are loved by our big family.

There have been all kinds of parties and celebrations, some are big and some may be having pizza at our local pizza place ..but we always have fun.

One of the celebrations that stands out in our family memories is the one where my son-in-law invited about 20 people over for an early brunch since my dauther Jennifer works nights he knew she would be sleeping ... he had us all stand around her bed and outside their big picture window were everyone could look in and she could see everyone outside. ...Well, she woke up to a bunch of "fire crackers" that he lit outside the window... Oh yeah! ...It was not pretty when she jumped up out of a dead sleep ... Saying .."what the hell"!!!! along with a few other words #@%$$#&**##@!!!! .. especially when she raealized that there were 15 people standing around her bed.. she wanted to kill her dear hubby ..but she laughed and has never forgotten her 40th birthday ......So that tells you what kind of a family we have ... there's always something that is good for a laugh ...and it makes for great dinner stories.... So I am saying ....* HAPPY BIRTHDAY* to all of us who will be or has been celebrating a birthday .... I love you all ..and I am blessed. :^)

So that gives you an idea of what kind of a family we are ...

It's not even my birthday!... I don't think I've ever gotten a gift in the mail for no reason at all .. and don't you just love getting packages in the mail? .. Thank you soo much Rita for all the beautiful things and for making my day soo special... I love you ... Hugz ...Tia Betty

Yard sale weekend

Last Saturday was a city wide yard sale in a near by beach town called Morro Bay ...it's about a 15 minute drive from our town ...I went with two of my daughters, Julie and Jennifer. ..They picked me up at 6:30 am ...we wanted to be the "early birds" so we could get the best "prizes" ..of course everyone else had the same idea ... Tina, our oldest daughter also followed in her car with cousin Pam ... we had to take two cars to have enough room for our treasures ... good thing we did take two cars because they were both 'packed' when we came home ... It was such a fun day. One of the things I bought was a service for 12 set of Spring looking dishes .. but when I put them on my table they just 'didn't work for me' ..so Tina is going to try to sell them at her yard sale next weekend.... You can't win them all.
