Happy Monday...and belated St. Patrick's Day!! Wahoo! I have always loved wearing green on St. Patrick's Day, and now I also enjoy a Guinness or a green beer too. Who doesn't love cheap green tinted beer? This St. Patrick's Day was relaxing for us. We took in the warm weather, enjoyed some Grolsch beer (now we can use the bottles for homemade salad dressing!), made a nice breakfast, and overall celebrated the onset of spring. Here are a few pictures from our St. Patrick's Day. How did you spend the green holiday? Find my vintage green dress Here .

I don't know about any of you but for the past several years although I have taken a gazillion photos I have actually had very few printed out. I have quite a few photo albums filled with photos from when I was younger through Lillie's first six months and then I just kind of ran out of time to have them printed and put them into albums. I kept putting it off and then it seemed like such an overwhelming task because I was so backed up. I had made a few photo books online in the past but was never thrilled with them. Then one day I saw on Pinterest a link to a blog called A Thousand Words where the author wrote about using a company called Blurb . (She is ridiculously organized and she gives more info about her books towards the bottom of this post .) I decided to give it a try and I couldn't be happier! This post is not in any way sponsored by Blurb, I just am so excited about this that I wanted to share. I started by doing last year and am now working month by month on 20...

So sorry haven't posted much lately. Been very busy starting a new job as a Nanny/Personal Assistant and aslo for the last 2-3 weeks have been getting our home ready for our son and his wife's visit. We're so excited; they will be here tomorrow. We are so looking forward to their visit here. Will list the links for these photos soon. Have a wonderful weekend and keep smiling! There's always wonderful things all around us! Debbie

these are some of the other beautiful photos that I posted on my blog a long time ago.....haven't seen them in so long. my computer crashed last year and i lost so many wonderful pictures but thank goodness.....they were kept on my blog. so i hope you don't mind me sharing them again.....if you haven't searched through my entire blog, you may not have seen them before, so hope you enjoy them. i'm not sure which blogs or sites i found them on and since my computer crashed and i lost the links to these photos, i may not be able to find the sources, but let me know if you're interested in the links and i'll try to find them. hope you are having a wonderful day. we're going for a walk.....it's so nice outside here today!!

here's some great photos from...... abundance 1st option 16 house sanctuary

the wind finds it's way to the corner of the winter cove, little swallows quietly sleeping in a lovely tree...... i walk past a fallen house.....it's driftwood walls echo of laughter and stories and long, wondering gazes as children run along the shore. where did the sun go? waiting for a brighter day, we see a ship in the horizon and talk about long journeys and sleeping dreams. what will the snow bring this winter? a stark and cold day, we long for the sun of summer again. summer is as if the world is turned upside down and all the frozen memories fall into the sea.
