Leap Day. . A Little of This and That

Well, I had to post something today
This date won't happen again
For 4 more years!
So here is a little bit of this and that just for
Leaping This Year. . .
 A little of This
 And some of That
 And just a little More
 Have a wonderful extra Day
Zoey has no idea what day it is. . .
Leap or Not, it is all the same to her.
See you in

Decorating For Spring

I am still doing a little decorating around my little home.
Spring is just around the corner and it is a good time to
Arrange for Spring. . 
Recently I purchased this adorable wire cloche'
(oh, I don't know if that is what it is called or not)!
 A little bird nest with a butterfly is displayed in the cloche'
 I love decorating my Blue Buffet
All the work in painting this beautiful piece has been worth it.
 Oh, the randomness of my decorating. . 
A little of this and a little of that.
It is what makes my home speak my personality. . 
 I enjoy being home
Even more now that I work during the day
I love to be home. . .I have always been that way.
There is just no place like home!
I love being a "Homemaker"
I am off to join 
It is good to be back blogging and visiting
All the wonderful Blog parties
And getting new and refreshing ideas.

Crochet Roses and Flowers

I have been crocheting lately.
Me and my little Zoey
Snuggle-up in the evenings
We watch t.v and I crochet
Here are some of the little 
Flowers and Roses I have been making.

So you can see I have had so much fun
Making Roses and Flowers
It won't be long until there will be
"Real" Flowers blooming!
Until then I will enjoy my 
Crochet roses and flowers. . .
Hope you enjoy!

Come back again. . . .K
I will be linking to. . .

A New Picture

Yesterday, I bought a new picture.
My Aunt Carol had one like this
And I always loved it so much.
So when I saw it at a consignment shop in town
I just had to have it
It reminds me of my Aunt.
I am afraid it doesn't go well on my wall. . 
The grouping on my wall is white's and blue. . 

 I am still fussing and fiddling with the picture
And the shelf and
The grouping on the shelf.
But, I do love the picture.  
I don't like it when I am so undecided about a
Decorating idea.
Something is just not right. . .
Well, I will keep working with it
And show you what I come up with.
I just love the little "flower" balls I found at Michael's
It will soon be Spring. . .or so they say
I need to brighten things up in my rooms.
I will be showing you what I come up with
Maybe the picture frame is not right for that wall?
What do you think?

Families Are Forever

Families Can Be Together Forever
 Through Heavenly Father's Plan
 He knows each one of us by name
He knows are times and our seasons.
He showers us with blessing from on high
To make our journey here on earth a little easier.
We can be bound together Forever through
The Power of Jesus Christ.

A Big Mistake. . .

 I made a big mistake. . .
Oh, it is nothing I can't undo. . thank goodness!
I made a huge mistake with one of my afghan's
A Big Mistake
 I was more than half way done with it. .
But, I knew I couldn't live with this mistake.
 So, what's a girl to do?
Unravel. . and that is what I did!
 A months worth of crocheting
And I am starting all over again.
Isn't it wonderful that we can start over again?
 I just knew I could Not live with this mistake.
It is all good. . !
Unraveling is ok, it doesn't hurt !
I will be happy when it is finished and I can show you
The Completed Crocheted Afghan
With NO Mistakes!

I Promise I am Still a Blogger

I know you think I have abandoned my blog!
But, I promise I am still here.
I have been overwhelmed with my re-arranged life.
Watch for my posts. . .I am getting settled into a schedule
And a new pattern.
I am still crafting and doing my decorating.
Don't leave me!
I love my Blogging friends.
