Life Wide Open

I must write a post...I must do something creative..

but...

I haven't been able to pull any of life's wonderful moments together to form a fitting post. So with I did think I would share some of pictures of what's been happening around here.

I think the first thing that has really thrown me into

Blogging Never Never Land

would be a job change. 

I still work at the same place but had taken on a different job meaning a different schedule to train for the new position. Now that I've completed training it has also meant still more schedule changing. That alone is enough to throw me into a tailspin.

Along about the same time, my daughter began some fairly intense dental work. The word dental should be enough to freak anybody out. Things went well but everything didn't go completely as planned so more trips more visits. 

Now that I've segwayed(I'm positive that word isn't spelled correctly..I couldn't spell check it either..hmm..I think it's a real word)  into talking about my daughter. 

It has been prom season for the kids in Patrick County. 

Some people hate the prom some people love it but if you have a daughter and she's going you can be there will be some serious errands and running.

So here's some pictures we took before she took off for the big night...

Maybe not glass slippers 

but 

Cinderella like just the same.

We also had a Wonderful Easter the week following the prom. I now there were missed recipe posts but many of the times I'm more consumed with living in the moment than capturing it all in a post.

I will assure your there was no shortage of food, family, egg hunting, and tree climbing.

Ugh..don't your climb trees on Easter??

and a lot of big conversation going on.

Oh my poor Mama's flowers didn't stand a chance.

Monkey see..Monkey do..

We're big on family around here..

May as well let the men

be men...

Now that the weather has surely broke I'm excited to get onto hikes, baseball, fresh blooms

and hopefully I muster up some creativity along the way.

I thank you if you've made your way over for a visit

 and 

I wish you Many Blessing.

As you can see my I've been drinking from my saucer.

Be Blessed!

Natural Spring Wreath

There's nothing like fresh blooms and warm sun to get me in a decorating mood.

My style is very un-fussy

and

 I like to have that just come along kind of style. 

Using what is in my natural surroundings makes me feel closer to nature.

It is also an inexpensive way to decorate.
