Finally some scrapbook pages

Finally some pages to post. Blogger has been difficult today. These pages/pics are very special to me....I will cherish them forever. I am off tomorrow, thank the Dear Lord up above......I plan on setting up the pool that the kids bought and scrappin' the rest of the day. I have a few more pics of the kids/cousins that I want to get done. Hope you had a great weekend!

Weekend with my brothers

I left Friday to see my brothers in Mississippi. I can't believe that we're so alike. Really weird yet very fun to compare. I dont think I've had this much fun with anyone in a long time. I never dreamed the fun would take place with my brothers.

Friday night....crawfish night....I even tried gizzards (never had them before) Actually, they were really good. Dobber hooked everyone up with lots of food and drinks. YUM!

Saturday, went tubing on the river with Dobber .....never been before BUT I am addicted to that! I want to do that again and again. I think I hit every stick and rock in the river but I survived and had TONSSSS of fun.
Saturday night, we went to Biloxi to the casinos.....Hard Rock Casino....lots of fun in the enviorment but I lost 25 bucks....YEP 25 Bucks! I quit and then walked around looking in amazement that my ass is bigger than Elton John's. Very sad! I thought he was a large man....looks like it on TV anyway. I learned a few things at the casino: #1--you're going to lose
#2--I did like the enviorment #3--I got carded (I felt young for that 30 seconds) #4--I love the smell of the ocean #5--I just really liked spending time with my brothers. #6--most of these high dollar singers wear some TACKY and let me repeat TACKY outfits. That was pretty amusing to me. Most rockers are VERY small people. I did get a history lesson in there which I think is worth 25 bucks.

Sunday, We had a great time.......rode around looking at different things, ate lunch, and I spent part of Fathers Day with them. I think that it's a little ironic that we all share the same biological father and we were able to spend part of our Fathers Day together which is the bond that unites us. It was a happy day.....A day shared with part of my father that I never got to know.
After a fantastic weekend we left and headed back to reality. I can say without a doubt that I am glad that I've found my family. I learned that Doodle and I are alike too which makes me smile.

Thanks for reading!

New Look

I decorated my blog today. If you don't know, I love the color chocolate brown. My whole house is decorated in this color. LOVE IT and it goes well with anything....very sophisticated and elegant. I also love all things vintage. Every time I go into Hobby Lobby (which is my favorite store in the world) I gawk over the decorative kitchen plaques. Those vintage plaques are AWESOME. My decorating style here is Tuscan.

So anyway, I found a way to incorporate my love for chocolate/vintage into this blog.

I wanted to post a pic that coordinates with my blog. Yep, I'm a weird-O.........Here is my most prized possession that I've ever bought. I cherish this clock......love it......and it's totally me.

I bought it 2 years ago right before we moved into this house. I look at it every time I pass by.

You get the point......no one will ever get this clock unless I die. They must treasure it like I do.

Hope you have a great week.
