Some things that make me smile...

These crystal vases. Something old and something new. The old vase belonged to my great auntie Reba. I am her namesake. The new one was purchased with my mom and sisters on a shopping trip. Fun memory.




Little baby things. Always shocked and amazed when I get to have another baby. Each one is a precious, undeserved gift.




Fabric swatches for consideration. New pillows? Recover the hope chest? Maybe I just like fabric.



A game table was added. A place we can leave games and puzzles we are working on.



A fun game. Except the kids might be on to me~ spelling and adding in their off time~ hee hee.



A new home for my cookbooks. Which frees up space in my kitchen cabinet~ hooray.



Sweet little Sarah popping up into my picture. And bar stools. A Mother's Day gift to me. : )



Who needs a bassinet? Not Hailey I guess. : )

  1. Oh Rebecca! Everthing looks so pretty, so clean. The wind is picking up the dirt from open field across the street and covering my my house with dust!
    I am about at my wits end.

  2. I hear ya sister. That's how it was in Manteca all the time for us! I gotta say though your property is awesome. Definitely worth the dust.

    Oh c'mon. Your transparency is seriously blowing my cover. I dusted and cleaned all day- that's the only reason things look clean in the pictures.

    I've been so behind the last couple of days that the other night I had a dream that Jane Gibson came to my house and wanted to clean it. It was great.

    But Jane hasn't called, so I decided that I should probably get to it. ; )

  5. Hi Elizabeth~ welcome! Glad to have you here. : )

    Thanks Christie and Kristi! It feels good to "lighten up" the vases and flowers and think about new fabrics in the Spring.

    Hi Lauren! Thanks` it's working really well in our family room. I've been wanting a game table for a while, but something large enough for us. I opted for a small dining table that was being sold on clearance at Walmart. 5 pieces (1 table and 4 chairs) for $169. Something Tom and I could both be happy about. : )

    Have a great weekend!
    Rebecca
