It's that time again!! This is my master bathroom. I choose a teal color for the back wall and accents. The bedding is also in this color. I love it! Looking in from the bedroom. Closets on either side, his and hers!

My pedestal soaking tub! I love it! I am a "soak in the tub, read a book", kind of girl. Every night!!
Shower on one side... I found this tall towel stand and was so happy with the perfect match to the sink cabinets!
A beautiful frame from Amish country!

The other side...
My favorite part is this... the silver reading tray that Tegan and Kelley gave me for Christmas!

Now just guess who remodeled this bathroom for me?? That's right... Mr. Dave himself!


For my friend Dee...

So here is some help for the Desperate Housewives of Bay Cedar. Check this out: Gypsy Feet (just click on these words) Remember to give it a few seconds to load then you will see the picture! I know you all want to see it so I hope this is helpful!! And to my friend Stephanie, thanks for the help with linking!! Till next year girls!!

Papa's Woodshop

Dave, a.k.a. "Papa" has a wood shop. Papa loves his wood shop. He has made many really nice things in his wood shop. Just wanted to share a few with all of you! It started with Sarah's nursery furniture.
Finished project in Sarah's room...
with a matching changing table...
Then came the rocking chair...
Sarah really loved that so much!!
Oh... the rocking horse!

Sarah had a double whammy that Christmas!!

A picnic table for Uncle Mike!
A shoe bench for Beckie and Donny!
A fabulous workshop on Cornhole games. Rick, Bob and Danny got in on that one! Dave and Bob went on to make a bunk bed for Bob's daughter Kara.
This great picture frame he made for my GEMS... pictures on both sides!! This one he had requests to make as gifts.
The filing cabinet next to the desk to hold my MUSIC IN MOTION papers, etc! I love that one!

A swing for our friends Kathy and Gary so their granddaughter Gracie could swing in their backyard. And so much more... He is one talented "Jack of all Trades". This man can do anything and everything! We love Papa and all he does for us!! Sappy or not... he is one of my best GEMS!

Sprinklers!

Crocker Park has a sprinkler park now!! Great fun! Sarah enjoyed trying to outsmart the spouts of water!! Then it was off to the Chocolate Factory....

Busy, Busy, Busy...


YaYa is coming over today to alter the dress for the concert! Sarah loves to try it on and dance around in it! She can hardly wait to have it for a "dress~up" item. Sarah wanted a dress just like the one she saw her favorite Celtic Woman, Lisa, wearing in a video online. Lisa is on the right singing in the picture below. "She is just the prettiest one Meme"!
YaYa working on the dress while Sarah looks on...

"This is gonna be so pretty!" We are using some lace from Mrs Guthrie, an angel in heaven! She sure would think that was pretty special! See the pretty lace...
We can't wait to show you the finished dress on Saturday!! Watch for it!! Thank you YaYa!
