I had the best weekend!!!



How was your weekend?
Today was my birthday and I had an awesome weekend!!  On Friday night I went to a reggae concert with my oldest sons Jason and Corey, it was fun to spend time with my oldest boys.  I cannot believe my little boys turned into men where did the time go?
   
Saturday my friend Linda came over from Clearwater and we spent the afternoon checking out new resturants and shopping then we came home and had a wonderful dinner.  Linda is the friend I went on the cruise with and so we spent some time looking for the next cruise ;-)
Sunday morning we had brunch with my four sons and grandsons.  




My grandsons spent the whole time playing games on the IPad  and phones.  My friend left to go back to Clearwater and my boys and grandsons came over and we swam in the pool.  Then my youngest boys Ryan and Justin took me to dinner to a small Italian place.   After rereading this it looks like I spent the whole weekend eating  :-)

Then the servers brought me a piece of cake and they all sang happy birthday to me.  The cake and  Tiramisu was divine!!   Yum!!!
The girls helped me with the desserts :-)
So tomorrow I need to start my exercising routines again......Anyone need a work out partner?........
As I was sitting today watching my sons,  Ryan with his sons and "Uncle Corey" with his nephews I thought back when my older three boys were growing up and how successful they have become and what a great daddy Ryan is with his boys and how I wish I could turn back time and snuggle up with them.  Return to the  hugs and kisses, notes they used to leave me before they went off to school watching them with their friends and when they were in soccer and little league.  When they were born and looking at their sweet faces for the first time, nurturing and caring for them and hoping you are making the right decisions and wondering what decisions they will make for themselves.  I watched my grandsons while they were playing games today and wondered what decisions will they make for themselves, will they be happy, will they marry and have children.  What kind of work will they do, how many kids, will they still live here where they grew up, or will there dreams take them to far off places.  I guess as I get older I wish I could turn back time and spend time with my boys again and give them more hugs and kisses and let them know they are the most important things in my life.  Being one year older makes me feel so blessed and I would do every single second over again.

My weekend was the best!!!

Happy Birthday to my Grandson Griffin

Yesterday my grandson turned 4 years old!!!
This is his first day of preK on 8-15-2011


When he was 2 days old sleeping with his daddy


Gosh I cannot believe he is 4 already where did the time go?


He was always smiling, always









And always giving kisses





He is a very active one and when I watched him a couple of weeks ago he said to me, "Mema You're awesome!!!!"
They sure grow fast.

I won another giveaway!!!

How lucky I won another giveaway!!!

This is from Michele of Something Special
It is so nice that both of the giveaways I have won have helped me with getting some white into my decor.

Sorry of the dark picture I was having some issues with my camera last night.


Isn't this so pretty?  I can't decide where I want to put it, this is in my bathroom  I love the sweet ribbon with the rhinestone and key attached to it with the lace edged napkin tucked into the pitcher.
or on my dresser?

This is a little dark but this pin cushion is made with a votive candle holder, what a great idea!!
This card puts my creations to shame it is beautiful!!!
Thanks so much Michele!!!  I love everything you sent to me.
Make sure to go over to visit  her at"Something Special" her blog is gorgeous!!
Enjoy your day!!

It's PiNk SaTurDaY!!!!

This is my 2nd post for today  :-)
I wanted to share some things with you:
I found this bottle last weekend but it had just a small ribbon so I put some crinkled ribbon and added the flower.
 I found this sweet pattern, isn't it cute?  Can you see on the bottom right hand side the price of 35 cents?  Wish the prices were like that now don't you?


I bought a 1.99 book at GW and tore the covers off it and altered it with some sheet music some lace and some rose buds. 

I finished the bottle in the back and now have it displayed in my bathroom along with:

My Brush, Comb and Mirror.

Happy Pink Saturday!!!!  


Go over to visit the Sweetest Hostess Beverly  and see all the pink loveliness!!!
