HOME SWEET HOME ELEMENT

download

I hope you don't have a problem downloading this element from megaupload. I usually use sendspace but it was down this morning. Sorry if you have to dodge the advertising! I created this element, originally, for my friend Lisa (lisabranka to you who go to SBB) for her daughter, and I originally put a special sentiment on it for dd (scrap lingo for dear daughter) who, at like early teen in age, has sewn a prize winning quilt! Next, I got a request to do a heritage element - does this qualify? I'm game to try anything if you send me a request.

my new best friend, ha ha

Ok.. so I've got my new camera... and yesterday my friend Alison and I headed up to Spotted Lake for an hour or two of photography. I really enjoyed the time together, and what a beautiful way to share a morning. I'm hoping she will share some of her snaps to... in case she does you can find her HERE. She has a great eye for composition. I can't wait to see what her gallery unfolds to be over the future.

And, my poor husband. He's thinking by now that someone turned the papparazi loose. He's being greeted at every corner by this big fat 'ol lens sticking into his face - can't even get in the door. (giggle) He's learning he better have a big smile pasted on his face when he arrives.

SMILE FOR THE CAMERA, BABY!

I am going to take a 3 day break here from blogging. Its my birthday and I don't want to share my time with anyone except my honey. All I will share is this pic. he he. So you all have a good weekend. Please pray for the staff, school and families of the Montreal School Shooting Tragedy.

Cute Someone Today

We have the ability to encourage one another - to brighten up someones day is definately a gift that gives back. In this broken world its sometimes hard to find a place that is almost childlike in it's innocence, a place where you can go and be moved by the tiniest of joys. The bible tells us to keep our mind at these places, in the following scripture:

Phillipians 4:8

Finally, brothers,

whatever is true, whatever is noble,

whatever is right, whatever is pure,

whatever is lovely,

whatever is admirable—

if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

With this thought in mind, though the following link is extreme-ly cute, enjoy a little time away from the REAL WORLD, and send it on to someone else who could use a smile too. Please, tell me what you think is the cutest thing you see here...
