Things that made me happy today.....
- seeing the children sooooooo happy.
- talking to Lance today
- making sure a good friend was ok without me (I miss her a bunch).
- knowing my bday surprise may come early.
- beating my mom in SCRABBLE.
- eating Banana Splits because the weather demanded it.
- my moms cooking.
I am afraid that I will be MIA for awhile, because whenever my mom comes to visit, we stay busy from dawn to dusk. In the morning I am usually busy with the kids, and at night, my mom challenges me to a game of SCRABBLE. Normally, she really kicks my butt, but I am proud to say that last night I actually beat her. Only by +1 point, but hey I beat her. Whenever I get a free moment I will be sure to post pictures and say hello. I want to take advantage of the time I have with her, and not sit at the computer which I am sure everyone will understand.
Things that made me smile today.....
- a great lunch of tuna, celery, pickles and green onions on crackers.
- long conversation with my sister.
- the thought of my mother arriving tomorrow.
- bacon and french toast for dinner.
As cold as it is again, these dresses feel appropriate. Here is some inspiration for the upcoming days. Brrrr.................
No, I don't have a horse. Yes, I do like horses.
The truth is this: I wanted to photograph horses. So I put Nicolas in the car, and before we met some friends tonight, we took a drive and got to know our city. We found a beautiful house with three lovely horses drinking water. We stopped the car, and pulled out my camera and started to shoot. Then we drove to the other side of town, and I saw a woman walking a horse. I will post those pictures tomorrow. Nicolas and I had a lot of fun, met some new people, and I got to fulfill my need of photographing horses. They are beautiful creatures, aren't they? I never realized how much the cars scare them, but they do, and if I did not park the car out of sight, they all went running. This was also the second day in the last few months in which we could enjoy the weather. Cold is on the way, and according to mom, who is currently spending a few days with friends in Dallas, it is snowing there. So I am glad I took advantage of the weather, the lovely creatures, and the special moments I spent with my son.
BTW, I got a few compliments on my blog. Thank you. It is sort of my design. I used a one-column design and changed it around a bit. I brought in the background (available at Sassy Designs), and created the logo, the colors all by myself. I am saddened that immediately after I released my blog design, it was posted on Etsy for sale. If you are interested in the html code, just send me an email and I will be happy to send it to you.

I have an extra ULLA Mamu Pattern, and if anyone would like to buy it, I will gladly mail it to them for the price of the pattern, and shipping is on me.
What a great boy hoodie design. Love these colors together. Leave a comment on her blog and her tell her how nice her work is. :o)
What a great way to trick your kids into eating the right things. I know, my sister does it all the time. A must read for anyone that has a blender.
Becky Earl is a guest speaker on I love Faces this week, and I checked out her blog. What a great photographer, and she has a lovely blog.
