Timeless













I found these pictures in my dad's slides, it is exactly how I remember Disneyland and Disney World...it is amazing how it stays the same over 50 years....well, except for the fashions.

Lego Man



























This is what M wanted for Christmas...he put it together in two days. Amazing. I would still be staring at the box.

Transformation





















































































I went to the Habitat for Humanity Thrift Store with my very talented friend, Lora. I walked right by this ugly brass discarded light fixture...Lora found life in it...so I bought it for $15...and voila', new birth. My talented husband had to do some creative re-wiring when the baubache wouldn't not fit around the old sockets and it won't be getting little lampshades but all in all, I think it came out quite pretty. H is extremely pleased since it went in her room :-)

Looking through Dad's slides


I found this...Ride 'em, Cowboy!

My Talented Valentine

I am so excited to share my friend, Lora's blog. She is the most creative person I have met and she has finally started a blog. Lora was a teacher for many years and living on a teacher's salary is...well, a challenge. She learned how to make one man's trash, her treasure. You would be amazed at what she can do with someone's discarded chair or mirror. So, I encourage you to take a look at this woman's talent...maybe you'll see something to inspire you to take a second look at that chair you were about to donate.

Okay, I'm not sure why her link isn't inserting so do the old fashioned copy and paste with this:

Happy Thanksgiving









In keeping with my tardiness, now that is Thanksgiving, I will post my Halloween Pictures. Some of these are from the Trunk or Treat our Church held on the 30th and you will be able to spot which ones come from the spooky Hallowed Eve.
