HELLO Monday............

It's Monday, and the first Monday of June.  How can that be?  We are almost half way through another year and it seems like we just celebrated Christmas.  Whee! time, it does march right on......

HELLO Maxi Dress.............. 

It seems that Maxi Dresses are the "be all, do all" right now.  I found this one on the sale rack at Chico's a few weeks back and decided to "go for it."  I really like the longer length and think they are so feminine.  Trouble with most all dresses (no matter the length) that they are sleeveless and this gal hasn't done sleeveless in many a year.  But, they make so many cute shrugs that cover a multitude of sins, so I just popped one over this dress and thought it made it very nice looking. ~grin~

HELLO lots and lots of boxes and paper..........

This is what it looks like around our daughter's house right now.  The moving van unloaded their "stuff" this past Saturday and she is in the midst of trying to get the boxes unloaded and the "stuff" put in it's rightful place.  She said she had never seen so much packing paper around each item in her life.  I suppose they were going to be doubly sure that they were responsible for nothing breaking.  But, it caused them to have probably double the boxes to unpack because half of each box is packing.  Oh, the joys horrors of moving!

HELLO Cypress Knees........

Hubby and I were out with friends on a little excursion this past weekend and saw more cypress knees than the law allows.  Perhaps they are a rarity where you live, but, they are in abundance here in the swamps, bayous and lakes of Louisiana.  And, it is so amazing all the items you can find made from these "ugly looking things."  They almost look like some kind of creature when they are sticking out of the water but can sure be crafted into some nice looking decorative pieces.  

HELLO  43 years of marriage........

    Tommy doesn't look none too happy does he?  And, I look like I might be 12 years old.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Hubby and I will celebrate 43 years of marriage this Friday, June 6th.  We decided to take off on a little getaway to celebrate and our destination will be Branson, MO.  We have been going to Branson for many years and never tire of it.  It has lovely countryside, great entertainment, good food, and shopping.  What else could one want?  And, we know once the house gets under construction that we likely will not be going off, so we'd better go NOW!  We'll leave Wed. for 3-4 days and return ready to tackle the task that lies ahead. 

And, remember, this week to..........
