Look What God Painted! Ahhhhhh ....So Pretty! Happy Pink Saturday!!!

Good Morning Wonderful Pinkies!

I'm so sorry I'm late here doing my pink post......my Darling Hubbs and I RARELY stay out late, but we sure did last night and I was just too pooped to do the post when I got home......then I realized I was totally unprepared too. Can I blame it on the heat wave? :-)

We went to some friend's for dinner last night....I'll post about it later, but we laughed all chatted until way too late for this old gal.

So, my Pink Saturday pictures are from awhile back....My timing that evening was just perfect and I was going through town just as the sun was setting. It was a scrumptious view, wasn't it? I was so happy that I had my handy, dandy camera with me so I could get some snaps.

Folks were parked all along the road, leaning against their cars, talking and watching.....lots with realllly fancy cameras. I would love to see their pictures!

God is sooooo good, isn't He? Just stunning isn't it?

I hope you're enjoying your Pink Saturday, touring about all the wonderful PINKNESS! Beverly hosts this yummy event each Saturday. You can find all the beauty at

Don't forget to leave a comment on my giveaway post! I'll be drawing the winner this evening....I can't wait!

So my sweetest little chickies.........please pardon my rambling. It takes me awhile to wake up and I'm still half-sleeping. :-)

Have a wonderful weekend!

Huggies and Lovies,
Spencer


Oh...........and HAPPY GIRLFRIEND'S DAY!!!!!! YOU'RE the BEST!

HoLY CoW! I WON! I'm So Excited! And, I've Been Tagged Too! :-)

I just can't believe it....I'm just sooo darn excited! I WON....I actually WON.... I have NEVER, in my whole (read: long, really, really long) life been a winner of things....And, I've won a printer (several months ago) AND this yummy prize! How wonderful!

Do you remember the 3rd Annual Cottage Charm Giveaway? Oh my, there were so many delicious prizes! I LOVED this one.....From the SWEETEST little gal, Marilyn over at Ivy and Lace Cottage.....Isn't that book, BLOOM, just sooo lovely. I had a chance to sit down with a lovely cup of breakfast tea and immerse myself in it yesterday. Yes, I was supposed to be cleaning, but a girl needs a break, doesn't she? :-) And, lilac was my Mum's very favorite fragrance. I always bought her lilac candles and oils. I'll have the essence of my sweet Mum all around when I burn that little lovely. And, that dishcloth?? HANDMADE! Holy cow, handmade dishcloths???.....it is the softest thing ever! I told Marilyn that I simply could NOT use it...and she assured me that she loved to make them to USE... I don't think I'm going to be able to though. And, a journal! YIPPPEEEE!!! I could have a nice cup of hazelnut chocolate while I do some writing. Oh, I DO have a lot to say!

Thanks so much Marilyn. You're a doll. I appreciated every single thing in my lovely package. I am THRILLED! :-)

And, that adorable.......ADORABLE Sue over at Sullivan and Murphy tagged me to tell you six things about myself. Is that ALL??? :-) Oh yes, I could tell you LOTS of stories. *Wink*.

Ok....here goes.

1. I watch Jon and Kate. There, I said it. I know, it's just too embarrassing, isn't it? I HATE reality shows and really watch VERY little TV other than the news, but I got hooked on this one. Aren't those little kids just too cute? Lots of noise in that house. I'm just sooo sad that things have gone so far off the tracks there. It always made me sad for Jon that Kate talked to him so disrespectfully. How hard is it to be kind? I don't think I'll continue now that there are problems. That's just no fun to watch.

2. My Mum's parents came over on the boat from Manchester, England to Ellis Island. We actually found their names on the log. It describes their skin, height and whatnot. It's so cute. I ADORED them. So, 100% English on my Mum's side. My dad was about 3/4 English and 1/4 German, so I'm pretty much English. And, I love ALL things English too. Oh, how I love the old fashioned prints and china! I got my creativity from my Grandma. Gosh I miss her.

3. I don't like to clean house, but I do?? Does that make sense? I complain about it, but I soooo enjoy a spiffy house. I love order. I used to work for a Dr. whose wife always said "WITHOUT ORDER THERE CAN BE NO PEACE". Isn't that the truth? I think it actually saves time to be tidy because you don't spend all that time looking for things. :-)

4. Yeah, well, I still haven't started Spring Cleaning..........YIKES! It's soooo involved and I dread digging in, but once I start I love doing it? Why am I procrastinating? Well, lots of sewing to do first and I LOVE the finished product, but I don't always enjoy the process. I get sooo frustrated. I'd better get on it or it's going to be Christmas.

5. I love to laugh. I laugh all day long. I laugh at silly things.....things just tickle me. Now, my darling Hubbs can't tell a decent joke to save his life, and he doesn't really SAY funny things, but he makes me laugh ALLLL the time. He has these expressions that just put me in stitches. He's such a good guy. How did I get so lucky? I love you Muffin....

6. Six already??? Whew, time flies! I make things. Lots and lots of things. I've often joked that when I croak I want my tombstone to say "I made it myself".... :-) Hoping I don't have to get busy on that quite yet. I still have lots of laughing left to do.... :-)


Oh, and SEVEN......I LOVE all of you. You've encouraged me and lifted me up when I've been soooo down. What an awesome group of women. You are FABULOUS. I am blessed and grateful. Very, very grateful.

Thank you from the bottom of my HEART!

Hugs and blessings,
Spencer

I'm thinking I probably have plenty of exclamation points in this bloggie.......'ya think??? :-)

Oh, and PS..........my computer's a NEW girl! Super zippy........My computer fella took EVERYTHING off it and re-loaded SOME stuff........but....I have no documents, pictures, and on and on and on.........ooooooooooopsssssss! Hope I can get this figured out ASAP. I did move all that stuff to my external hard-drive, but I can't get it back on the computer. Oh, the dilemmas of technology! Mind you..I am NOT complaining. My computer fella is sooo sweet and very efficient. I LOVE him and couldn't ask for more, God bless him.
