Sweet Angel

Heaven has a new ANGEL~

Praying for Tripps Mommy and all his family.

OH YEAH ~

Listen to Mya say, CRAWL, CRAWL, CRAWL!

Cayden is pretty proud too~

saying  "OH YEAH, OH YEAH" at the end of video!

Mya was diagnosed with a fear of movement but after a couple 

weeks of therapy, her Momma working non stop with her, 

her Daddy playing with her, and her big brother

cheering her on, she is

CRAWLING!

We are all so happy!

Hugs and Kisses to my little Miss Mya! 

Hey Brown Eyed Girl...

Meme is missing those chocolate m&m eyes of yours!

Mah Jongg, any one?

My friend Donna, here in Florida, offered to teach me how to play REAL

Mahjongg.

I have played on the computer for years.

Never knew what the symbols on the tiles were called.

I took these pictures of Sandy's Mahjongg set, which was beautiful.

The little tile bag was hand sewn by one of her friends.

Sandy's set is black with vibrant colors on them!

I learned there is an "official playing chart"

showing all hands possible.

So confusing at first, but Roxi and I just sat and watched a few games.

I felt like I was beginning to understand it.

Donna had to leave and I took her seat, which must have been lucky

and I started to play my first game with Barb, Sandy and Kathy.

Roxi sat near me and nodded whenever I pointed out that I thought 

I might "have" something!

After about 10 minutes into the game,

I asked if I could say 

"MAH JONGG"

Sandy said "If you think you have it, go ahead...

Everyone, including me, was surprised that I really did have

MAH JONGG!!

My very first game EVER 

and I win in record time...

so they told me!!

I loved this game!  Thanks to Donna, Sandy, Barb and Kathy 

for teaching me the game~  I know I have some more to learn

but I really do think I "get" it!

I had to leave to get ready for my guests who were arriving Wednesday at 5~

I look forward to next week!

At the airport, I found Laura, in her pretty red scarf, making her way here from Oklahoma! 

And not far behind her, Mary Annis and Meigan, from Cleveland!

The girls loved that the Paparazzi greeted them!

We headed straight to Coconut Jacks and of course I 

wanted a picture of them in the BIG BLUE CHAIR!

Aren't they the cutest?

Cheers to some fun girl time!

For Dave...

Look how great the patio looks!

It is so great honey~ Thanks for the cozy place to hang with friends and family!

You're the BEST!

To my Number One Fan...

Mem loves you Sarah Rose!

So WHAT?

Sew this...

I asked Deb to sew a window seat cushion for me.

I asked if she could do it before Tuesday, when I leave for Florida.

"Just a simple slip cover to go over chaise lounge cushion"

I said, "Deb, what good is it to have a friend who sews so well

if I can't ask her to sew for me?'

Debbie laughed!

Deb said "come on over on Friday"

So, I did

and

SEW, I did!

That's right people, I did it myself...

with a little help from Deb!

Just wait till I show you...

Gemstones...

Beckie handed me a gift on Christmas 

and said "That one is from everybody"

"All your gems" 

It is a beautiful cross necklace but there is a surprise inside!

See the colors?

There are five little gemstones inside!

I keep them in their birth order inside~

If you know me, I love cross necklaces.

I am truly in love with this one!

Thanks to all my gems 

and their parents 

for this special

one of a kind

gift!

See more Tuesdays here!
