My 2009 Garden!


Because I'm still not quite ready to create, I have nothing to share except my new garden for this year! I'm happy to have it in earlier than last year! We didn't get to it until June last year but this year we're on it!


I'm growing tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, and strawberries. Here's my little garden spot for the year!


Thank you!

Thank you all for your support on my daughter's fundraiser! She met her goal and then some! So far, everyone is happy with the orders they purchased online, but the rest will come in in May. I should have ordered online! :) Anyway, thanks again! You are the best!!

Life's Simple Pleasures!

Well, for some, this is not a big deal but around my house you don't get new things unless the old ones completely quit working! You know the drill?

I've been living with a washer that only spins out on a couple of the settings, permanent press and delicate. On the other cycles, it just flat won't spin out and added to that, my knob to set the cycle broke off a long time ago! I noticed too that it wasn't really rinsing too good lately, but hey, it still works!

Then my dryer started making this strange noise? Hubby said sounds like the bearings. Oh great! Well, my dryer bit the dust!! Yippee!! lol

I got to get a new washer and dryer yesterday! I love it!! It's beautiful and it works! All cycles work! The dryer doesn't whine! It's wonderful! I can't wait to have some laundry to do!!!

It's the simple things in life that are important to me and I have to admit, it doesn't take much to excite me! lol Had to share with you my simple pleasure!

Have a great day today!

I had a wonderful day!



Today is my birthday.....not so exciting when you get to be my age but my family and friends always make it special! Thank you all so much who sent me birthday wishes! I really appreciate it! I really do!
I got a new jigsaw puzzle too and that could be deadly for me! I'm so addicted to them and if I get it out, I won't do anything but that!
There's a wonderful bakery here called Johnson's bakery and it's my very favorite cake ever! I got a beautiful one from there from my family! Here it is!

Isn't it the prettiest cake!?
And I got the most beautiful floral bouquet from a dear dear friend with a birthday balloon! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!


The flowers are much more bright and colorful than in the photo!

I've had such a wonderful day!

Missed my middle child and my daughter who had to work but that's how it goes!

And so it goes............another day older........

Spring is almost here!

Spring is just around the corner! I love it! All the trees are budding and blooming, getting ready to show their summer splendor!

The only thing is, around here, that means the possibility of some nasty storms! But that's Oklahoma weather for you!

I'm so close to designing new items. I can't wait! Almost finished with orders and then that will begin!

Is everyone as excited about Spring as I am? What's your favorite season?

Have a great day everyone! Becky

This is the beginning of the end for me! haha


Today is the first day of lasts for me and I will be entering a new way of life soon! Yes, my last child will be a senior in high school next year and today she is trying out for cheer for the last time. Everything from today on, will be her last time for everything! Well, that's not that big of deal some might say, but I'm thinking about this concept of not having any kids in school type of life.
This is always such a stressful time for the girls and moms too! All the girls do the same cheer, city wide for the 3 schools we have, all at the same place. For our school, there are 45 girls trying out for 30 positions.
Wish us luck and hope I make it through this LAST tryout! Maybe I'll be saying WHEW, when it's over! hehe

Daylight Savings Time?! EEK!

Are you kidding me?! We move our clocks UP this weekend? Well, I'm not ready for this! I like REAL time but ok......

Saturday is cheer tryouts and the stress is on. It's such a scary time for the girls. There's 45 trying out for 32 spots, 20 being varsity, 12 for JV. My daughter is going to be a senior so this is her last tryout. She has mixed emotions about it.

I'm still trying to get back to normal here but I have another trip to the store this morning. I forgot to get bleach! I like to start my sewing in the morning, but when I have something I have to do away from the house, I like to get that all done first.......so guess I'll go jump in the shower! Have a nice day everyone!

I love March!

Yippee! Spring is almost here! I love the month of March! My daughter was born this month on the 12th and, not so nice, I was born on the 25th. I love the newness of all the plants and trees, and the smell in the air! I love March!
