French Postcards

Go to www.stampington.com for free downloads of these beautiful French postcards. I'm going to use them to make something, don't know what yet. I love to look at the handwriting, so elegant.

Quel Beau Homme!!!!

I can't help it. I had to post these new pics of Johnny from the latest Vanity Faire (not sure I spelled that right) Anyway, he looks lovely as usual. Have not been to see "The Tourist" yet, but really want to.

Birthday Roses

Every year on my daughters birthday, my parents, her grandparents get her a dozen roses. Every year they are a different color. This year she wanted pink and red. I know I really need to work on my photography. Any help will be appreciated. Everything is grainy and blurry. Anyway maybe more practice. The roses were really beautiful, my daughter loved them!

I've noticed my children are growing up so fast, my little boy is 16 almost 17 and my baby girl is 11! I'm try to remember every minute!

I also love roses, even if they are not real. These red silk roses were a gift from my best friend from high school for one of my birthdays. I've had them for years and they always make me happy with their splash of color.

New Year's Post January 1, 2011

This year I hope to post more often, hopefully everyday or at least once a week. I have so many pictures to show.

We also had a White Christmas in Alabama this year! My first since I was 3 years old. (That's been a while back) Anyway it was beautiful and my family loved it! It was beautiful and fun. Like I said hope to blog again tomorrow to show some of my France/Italy pics from the past summer, I just recieved 500 pics from my Mom and Dad who went with me, so I really have some good ones to show. It was their first trip and their pictures were different than those that I took, since I had been several times before. It's funny how you see things differently everytime you go somewhere.

Back From Europe!

Finally back from Europe. I had a really great time and will be posting things that I saw and ate! Some really great food. My friend that went with me takes pictures of the rooms we stay in and I take pictures of the food. More about the trip later. As I was looking through some paintings/prints to put in my bedroom, I came across these really great prints of Jack Vettriano. I hope I spelled that name right. I've seen his pictures before, but really didn't know who had done them. He's an artist from Scotland, I am just now finding out more about him. Anyway, I really love his paintings, I'm sure you will recognize them.

Off to Europe!

Again sorry so long between messages. I hope after my trip, I will have lots to post and so lovely pictures. My son and I are off to Paris, Nice, and Eze France, as well as Pisa, Florence and Rome Italy. We can't wait to go! I've been before, but can't wait to see it through his eyes. Of course we will hit all of the major tourist attractions, plus maybe some not so touristy (is this a word?) places. I'll share stories when we return. Bon Voyage!

I love shoes!

I really love all of the pictures of shoes lots of blogs have. I don't know where I got these pics but I am trying to do better. I would really like to do some altered shoes!
