Anyway a lot has happened in the last week here. Peyton didn't get another super bowl ring, Deb had a birthday, a special friend of mine passed away, and I worked at the Speckled Hen today. I hadn't done that in quite a while. I must say it was fun seeing all the new things as well as the people.
Valentines Day is next week so I am sharing one more heart. It is a heart made of stone. The worlds best son in law bought Deb and me one.
This is a heart stepping stone beside my front porch. I love it. It was almost dark when I took this, so I apologize for it not being such a clear picture. It is one of my favorite things.
Before I go onto my favorite things and reds, I want to share this picture of Mollie. She spent the day with me yesterday and found my basket of wool Audra had sent me. Tombstone Tidings
She loved it. SO I snapped a couple of pictures of her.(Imagine that)
She kept saying, "It is so soft". It really is, just beautiful. Then she started saying,"Baa Baa Black Sheep". The basket has some dark wool in it. She is definitely one of my favorite "things".lol
Winter door box and red door. Deb was reading where red doors were the sign of hospitality long ago. I hope people still think that today.
Not red, but some of my favorite things.
Red settle made by a now deceased friend. I love this little thing
My dinner bell that my Daddy bought.
My old red smoke house.
My cow bell. I think you know the story.
Red shutters and a red pump in the snow. Oh I have lots more reds and lots more favorite things, but I think you are tired of seeing it tonight, so thank you for coming Through My Back Door where life is good.
betty
PS: Thanks for Debs birthday wishes. She had a wonderful birthday
PSS: I hope spring comes soon, especially for you all who are measuring your snow in feet. I can't believe I have the nerve to complain when you all are dealing with that. However my friend Lyn Dee says, they are equipped to deal with it and in the south we aren't.
PSSS: I have a problem, I sent a package to Afghanistan almost 4 weeks ago and it isn't there yet. I am so afraid it is lost, and I really wanted this young man to receive it. I am bummed
I need to add one more thing that has very quickly become a favorite. My jar of memories or praises.
Can't tell you my family, how much this has meant to me. It has become my favorite thing.
First off, Betty...so sorry for the loss of your friend. That is never an easy thing to bear. God Bless you and all affected. Your pictures are wonderful as usual, and I especially love the ones of Miss Mollie and the wool. Kiddoes are just the best!
ReplyDeleteOur snow has stopped here and today was COLD but bright and sunny! Maybe some more 'weather' predicted over the end of the weekend, tho...we'll see!
