This is the hand of my almost 89 year old Father-in-law. Taken while he catches a 10 minute nap, and in between the many daily visits he takes to his garden. Summer 2005

Recipe book class....this newest project is still in the works(way to much to do in a 3 hour period). I really like the style, and look achieved from the products used. Enjoy!

Guess who else is having some SUMMER FUN all the way from Candy Island Saskatchewan!

Good morning everyone...some more summer fun from years ago!

Summer Fun!

I will post these often, hope you enjoy them as much as I do.




This photo of Baba & Gido was taken in their yard earlier this summer.

A GREAT BIG HELLO & WELCOME!
I have sent out a "welcome to my blog" e-mail, hoping many will come and visit. Keep in mind I am still learning how this blog stuff works, be patient, hopefully it won't take me forever.

I will post a update to "my little corner of the world" very soon! Stay tuned!

P.S. Carita got a sneak peek this morning, and she has already checked in with a response.....Thanks for your visit & post!


Hope your day is filled with sunshine!

Sending out a special hello to CARITA, I think she is going to pop in sometime today! For anyone that remembers me posting about the survivor game, well guess who the winner was two years in a row? CARITA is our families SURVIVOR CHAMP! Just a little note, out of 11 men, and 11 women, the final four in the survivor game were women, YA!

Hope your day is filled with sunshine!

This sweet little face ALWAYS makes me smile, even when it is all sticky & gooey!



Our granddaughter is almost two, and soon she will have a little brother or sister, another one to LOVE!
Hope your day is filled with sunshine!

Hmmm where does one start.....online journaling is feeling a bit strange, but I will give is a shot.

Aug. 28, 2005
Well I have a couple of hours to myself(feels like forever ago since that has happened), thought I would try to set up a blog. Realized real quick that I would love to have a tutor, someone about half my age that could just whip through this, probably in half the time it will take me. I may be lucky enough to have my niece visit tomorrow, and she is very computer smart, so her and I will play around with it once she arrives. Until then I will play by myself, hopefully making some head way.
