Thanksgiving at Granny Young's.....

Tonight we had Thanksgiving at my Granny Young's house. She makes the BEST broccoli casserole ever!!! YUMMY:) Lori,
my favorite cousin((on my dad's side)), snapped this good pic of my dad, Salem, and I. I was so hoping to see Dana, but she was still at the hospital with Jeff. She did happen to call and say that the doctor's had made him get up and walk up and down the hall tonight, and that he would possibly get to come home either Tuesday or Wednesday. We are all praying for a speedy recovery for him after a "QUAD" bypass!!!


Oh well, all I can say is........one down, 3 more to go!!!

Happy Birthday Darlene.....

My support, my ally, my entertainment, my audience, my critic, my biggest fan, my best friend, .......
My sis!!!

Happy Birthday "D" I love you:)

A Birthday Present for Alison.....

Today is my Cissy Alison's birthday!!! And with that being said, what do you buy someone who has practically EVERYTHING???
Oh well, I started "racking" my brain early last week, and could never come up with something I thought she would like---So then it hit me. I would paint her metal letter for her, and buy a wreath and "fru-fru" it up a little bit! I worked on it most of the afternoon, and finally got it assembled just a few minutes ago. I hope she likes it, and I hope she had a wonderful birthday today. I love her so much and I don't know what I would do without her.
Happy Birthday Buffy:)

"THE FIRST OF MY HOLIDAY DECOR".....

......well at least I've got that much accomplished!!!

I took a couple of days off to "rest my mind" and to "gather my thoughts", and still I'm totally "mind boggled" with all that needs to be done here at the house.

With that being said, at least I got my metal letters painted and hung in their proper spots!

I love the smaller ones that I hang on the outside of the boys bedroom doors. This year I painted them red, and accented with white & lime green dots. I found this polka-dot ribbon last year at Walmart, and I think it compliments the letter pretty good.

Oh my, off to get some more stuff out of the attic. Terry and Salem just ventured out for the "1st day of hunting season". I hope they find some cubbies, and bring home lots of quail--YUM-O!!!

"Don't hate me because I'm beautiful.....hate me because I'm YOUNGER than you!"

.....hahaha Gotcha Ya:)

Happy Birthday to my best friend, my husband, Terry T.

Thanks for all you do for us, We love you---YOU ROCK!

Hope you have a wonderful day, and many, many more:)

Cherita's Baby Shower.....

My good friend, Lynn Bullen and I hosted a Baby Shower for our friend, Cherita Barnes Murray, Sunday afternoon at The Bullen residence.

Lynn's house is absolutely GORGEOUS, but was even more stunning, adorned with Baby decor!

She even had some of the tables adorned with Grant and LaraLynn's baby stuff---TOO CUTE:)



I arrived around 11am, to help Lynn get everything set up. Our Menu consisted of: Baby Blue-Raspberry Sherbet Punch, Mini-Phyllo tarts filled with Cranberry-Chicken Salad topped with Pecans, Creamy

Spinach and Ham Pinwheels, Raven's Vegetable Dip served with fresh celery & baby carrots, Fruit Dip served with fresh Fuji apples, globe grapes, and strawberries, Sugar Cookie petit fours, Baby "b" Sugar Cookies, Mixed nuts, and Butter mints.

Everyone had a wonderful time and Cherita got some really cute stuff. Lynn and I went in together and got her the Vera Bradley Microfiber Diaper Bag that she had been wanting. I think she was very surprised, or at least I hope so:)



I can't wait until baby BRAYLON LEE MURRAY arrives, I know he will be loved by so many, including myself---his #1 Auntie:)

Baby Shower Pics continued.....

Happy Birthday SUZY YORK.....

Happy Birthday to one of the sweetest "Queenies" in all the land.....

I love you dear friend, and hope you have a wonderful day:)

Please remember to keep the family of Paula Morris in your prayers. Paula's cousin, Maranda,(whose husband is stationed at Fort Hood), was in the turmoil of today's tragedy. Also, remember all the soldiers who were tragically killed, and those who were injured. May God be with their families during this time of grief.
Remember all our service men who put their life on the line every day so that we can have our freedom. Bless and Honor those who have fought and continue to fight for our wonderful country. God Bless America:)

The Most "Prettiful" Spooks.....

Auntie's house is known for having some "special treat" bags, but the best part is spending Halloween night with the "Fam"!!!
My favorite spooks---of course---2 witches---"The Good Witch & The Bad Witch" hahahee, JustKidding, even though "The Bad Witch" thought Sophie was her broom, cause she got on her back and tried to ride off!!! TOO FUNNY!!!
Kirby & Regan came out too and stayed until after 10pm, and helped me hand out candy to all the TrickorTreaters. The "YardDogCrew" went on their annual adventure---No telling what they got in to????? Lord only knows!!! Another Halloween has come and gone, now it's back to work tomorrow, and yet another busy, busy week ahead. I wanted to get out some Christmas stuff tonight, but I'm too "pooped", maybe one night this week I will have re-gained enough energy to haul it out of the attic--If not--Oh well:)
