Fun times......

 Ahhhhhh  food   table....................
 No bridal shower complete with out  panty and bra cookies.......
 Guests arriving.................
 Bridal bingo is hard work.......................
 The  story begins........all the guests are  passengers on a ship...the bride and groom are beginning the  night on a cruise with these passengers...the lights on the ship go out and  the passengers  offer to assist the  bride getting prepared for the honeymoon night...................
 each passenger  hands the  bride   an item  and shes got to   put it on.......
 Long johns  were  first
 Then came  a 42  DD  bra  the  bride  says  * Its too big*  and   some one in the  crowd  says    (  Don't worry  in 30 years  it will fit  fine!)   LOL..hats  gawdy necklaces...clear lip balm  and frog slippers  created the attire for the  wedding  night.
 The bride  got to see    how she looked..............  :)
 a successful  fun  day!





Blessings to all

New-----------------------

 Well it  was time for a new  doo any  how!~  Now if I could just get it to look  this good all the  time!
Actually this was an experimental hair do  for the  July wedding......Not sure  If I want this look  or to go with  looose  curls...hmmmm??
 Speaking of new.......I was in my back yard working in the herb garden and  this  bird  kept  scolding me.......after looking  closer for a few minutes  I saw why.......Awe.......
 Well I gave the old center piece a new look as well for this  Saturdays  shower in our  home town.....
small piece for  guest table.......


Wishing for some sunny days,..   The  crops are all in  and just about done with my garden but it is so  cool and  dreary....Although the moisture was needed  we do indeed need some sun!



Blessings  to all~

SURPISE Visitor

 We get an email  via  face-book  saying..we are going to be  visiting you in a few days!!!   All the  way from Sweden.......Our  foreign exchange daughter  and  her fiance  came  for a few days  stay!!   Six   years  ago  she  spent her   senior year  with us   here in the  U.S.     It was so good to see  her  again....they  will be  touring  America  for  three weeks.....as   of  tonight they  are  down in Texas!
 
 Its always  a good thing  when  I join on line  artsy stuff to do.....It  really  gives me  focus.....calms  me  and  just shakes up the  routine  a  bit.....the  two above  photos are  of some  ATC's a new venu... watercolors///  you had to fill a page.......theme is  floral....then   color it and then   cut it to the right  size....that was  very  soothing  for me!  The  top  one is simply a garden theme tag art
 The world of  collage.......and   I love  birds.....
 Loretta  Lynn was  in Redwood  Falls   last  night  so we went to see her  concert.....It was raining  so we  could not be in the  fields///  I have  always  loved  her  music.....She  is 81  and still has a very strong  voice......such a  beautiful lady!
 More tag art/   These are going to Canada  next week......maybe  I should put  some lil feet on these  guys  LOL
 What  small pieces  were  left  over of the  floral shallenge  I  created a few  magnets
Art quilt in the making!


Well that sums up my week here........Blessings to all......Can't  wait to see what ever one  else  is  doing!
