Flowers for Belt



My granddaughter saw a flower  in a catalogue  she was looking at, to put on a belt. So I made her a couple of them.  They look really cute on a thin black belt. Her brother let me borrow his belt just for the pictures. I will post pictures of her when I get some. They are fun to make and make up fast.

We went camping to Rock port reservoir last week. We love it up there. Our daughter and her children went with us. They had a great time too. It's so green and beautiful this year, and the lake is as full as I've ever seen. We hiked the mountain, and played in the water, and ate really good food. I love summer.

Sofia, she so cute!
We took a little trip to see our son in Manitou Springs Colorado. It's a cute little town just below Pike's peak. We had his kids with us as well. We had a great time. The town is full of great food, hiking, and fun places to see like Garden of the gods [it reminds me of moab just a little smaller] , and the seven falls, as well as a haunted castle. It also has tons of antique shops too.

China Hutch before and after

We remodeled our kitchen around a year ago. And this china hutch was in there. We built in a pantry so I didn't need it anymore {and I didn't like the style of it either}. So I took off the big doors and side glass panels, then I painted it a butter yellow color and put a brown glaze over the top. It now lives down stairs in the guest bedroom. I like it a lot better this way.

It's looking more like summer


Finally it's starting to feel a little like summer. It's been a cold, dark, dreary ,and very long winter. It does my heart good to see flowers and my grandkids having fun outside. Here's to more days like this.

Moab, utah





                                           

We went to moab for the weekend. We wanted to try out my husband's new Jeep. We had a great time. It's a fun town with tons to do. We stayed at a great rv park, went to an art festival, and ate wonderful food. Plus the weather was really nice 85 to 90 degrees all weekend. We didn't want to leave. A few pictures of the trip.

New Headboard

I've been working on my guest room on and off for a couple of months now.  I painted the walls and made a new headboard for the bed. It turned out pretty good. Here is a couple of pictures of it so far.
