SWEET GIFTS......


it's already been a WEEK since my last post???
WOW!
The days of 2011 are just flying by
I made a promise to myself that I'd be better at alot of things this year...
and keeping up with the blog posts was one of those things....
I have several topics that I want to post about ...

Today I'm sharing some Sweet Gifts...

First.
Congratulations to Sandra & Jack on the birth of their
beautiful new grand-daughter
Lyla June
Born 12.31.10
and to the new parents...Josh & Jodi!
The pics a little blurry...but isn't she just she sweetest??
They're home now and doing just fine.
Yep..... Babies are the Sweetest Gift!!

Second.
see this beautiful clock?

This was the awesome gift I won at my friend Tamarah's Giveaway

I was squeeling when I opened it!!
I knew I had been one of the winners on her 100th post giveaway
but she kept the gift a surprise

A Perfect & Sweet gift for the new year !
She's so awesome!
 If you haven't visited her blog ...well you should

I quickly found the perfect place for it...
Just the week before I had completed a project of re-painting
a cabinet and mirror for my front room
( that's another post----told ya I had several topics to post about )

You can't see it clearly here but at the bottom of the clock it reads...
Westclox ( Australia)
Tamarah's from Australia...a place I've long wanted to visit!!!
SWEET!!
I. LOVE. IT!!!!
Thank you so much Tamarah!!

Third.( NOT to be confused with last)
OK Third is all you sweet blogger friends!
I've enjoyed so much getting to know so many of you
 you've lifted me up more than you will ever know
the way you share your ideas, tips and tricks
your stories about life - good and bad
I'm so inspired by each of you!

I had no idea when I created this little blog last summer
that I would gain so many friends
learn so much more about life and freindships...
you gals rock!
and I don't know what I would do without you!!
So cheers to the SWEET GIFT of friendship!
and a shout out to the blogs that have lifted me up and inspired me in 2010!!
I'm excited to see what you have in store for 2011!

Here's how it's gonna play out...I am gonna come for a visit and ask you to go get me a glass of water, a big glass, then I am going to tip toe over to the clock and put it in my bag and pretend nothing happened and take to my house and love it forever. HA! I love it...Tamarah is like "the bomb" ya know!!??

  5. Awww...what a sweet baby. Tammy you have definitely inspired me too! Love your clock. Great win! I can always find inspiration here too. We like so many of the same things and even find ourselves knee deep in similar projects! Your Etsy shop is so much fun. I just realized you were not on my blog roll so added you so we can keep in closer contact. Here's to 2011!
