Winter's Return

Is that snow?

This is what we came home to the day after our trip to Charleston.

It was too warm to stick on the ground, but covered most of the trees and shrubs.

It snowed all day. One minute the sun would shine, and the next it was snowing!

These are our friends from Church, Don and Shirley. We took a trip last weekend to Charleston.
We stayed in an RV park in Walterboro, SC. We also attended Church in Walterboro. There was the Flowertown Festival in nearby Summerville we went to on Sat. The weather was great.

Don, Shirley, and EY on the Battery in Charleston.

We took the carriage ride around town to see all of the georgous homes, especially on the waterfront.

A pretty yellow, roselike flower.

Spring has come to Charleston!

One of the many beautiful homes we saw.

I love those "porches".

Now I'm Right Side Up

New Addition To The Family

Well, my husband couldn't wait until we come back from our trip to FL to get a new pet.

We both miss Princess so much and wanted another black Lab. Sooooo meet Daisy. She is only 10 weeks old . They think she is a Lab/Border Collie. I think she is mostly Lab. She's real sweet.

Princess was 12 weeks old when we got her and I didn't get to pick then either. He just went to the store and came home with her.

Tribute To Princess

She gets the front seat.

A walk with Daddy in the wooods.

Saying goodbye to a trusted friend and companion of 13 years is truly a hard thing to do. We had to do that yesterday to our dear Lab, Princess. She will be missed so much, especially by my husband. She was his companion on walks in the woods, Jeep and truck rides, and travels near and far. We could never ask for a better dog.

Fall In The Mountains

I haven't had time to post lately as I have been busy getting ready for company, going to festivals, and visiting with our company.

The weather has been great and the leaves are turning. It is a wonderful time of year. I can understand why people want to visit up here at this time of year and see God's wonderful creation.

I thought some of you Mommies might enjoy making the "cookie pumpkin ". I don 't know if you can read the instructions or not, but you get the idea from the picture. You use a brownie mix and bake it on a pizza pan. You ice it with orange icing (if you can find it). I always had to buy white and color it with red and yellow food coloring. The kids love to decorate it.
