My Treasure today

Thanks to Chantel for "Small Treasure Tuesday"  which gives me a reason(not that you should NEED a reason:) to examine my life and BE GRATEFUL. Today I am so very thankful for my lil' Goose. She truly is my miracle baby.  And she is growing into a wonderful determined opinionated drama queen   little"big" girl.  While we still deal with some of the normal 3 year old issues, her love and compassion shine already.
 As I am writing this post Goose has been whisked away to Grandma and Daddy's House.  As grateful as I am for my dd I am also thankful for this time to myself. I hope to use the time wisely:)  It's a little difficult to find time/energy for some things with a 3 year old reigning court.  Besides, with Christmas coming there's a few projects SHE doesn't need to see(grin)




She's a FUN lovin gal!

a little Beauty and a Banquet

Happy Monday to YOU! I hope ya'll had an amazing weekend full of rest, relaxation, and recreation:) Not necessarily in that order.  Mine was quite the opposite. Saturday was hectic and highly emotional as we remembered my friend who is with the Lord now. Her hubbie found her in the bottom of the pool Tues. night. She leaves behind 3 small children & many family members. Her birthday would have been next week.  I would love for ya'll to add the Parham family to your prayers. They will be needed during the coming days and weeks!
 And now for my pretties (The BEAUTY part of this post:)





















I have to say that while I am not a BIG fan of fake I do love these arrangements...FREE from a friend. The mini teapots have all been gifted as well. The mini teacups and saucers were thrifting finds. AND  my favorite is the Pen & Ink drawing.  It was done some YEARS ago by me. My momma has had it for years and when I found the frame  I knew that was the right piece for it!  Since it is high atop the hutch you can't SEE the  water stain in the bottom corner YEAAAA!
And then I have the BANQUET portion to show off:)


Poor babies...They have lived through sum rough Goosey times!
Notice the babies "booster seats" LOL!
