Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to my friends out there celebrating the day! I am stuffed and slightly miserable at the present moment-but it was really good going down-LOL There are so many things I am thankful for-my health,kids, family, friends and my job. It is truly a blessing to be here and be alive to enjoy the day. Now, below you will see the people that I love and sometimes they drive me nutty-but hey that's a family!



It's me! Don't look too hard-your computer screen may break-LOL



It's Aunt Fran and Caleb



My Mama and my sister Fran(her baby! Yes, that is some slight jealousy you detect-LOL)



My sister's Fran and Paula-I am so proud of these two. Fran has a PharmD(doctorate in pharmacy) and Paula has a Master's Degree in Instructional Design and Leadership I think-I can never get it right! I am the oldest and Fran is the youngest. As you can see they got all the looks too!

African Woman Framed!




This is African Woman by Bleu de Soie framed! I decided to pull the small of amount of teal in her as the main mat color. She was very easy to pick colors and a frame for. The frame is not a plain frame-it looks like it has an African feel to it. The picture is clickable. I love having her hanging up in my home. Otherwise, it's a cool morning here in Florida about 40 degrees-but it's nice. The kids are off to school and I intend to make an appointment for beautification also known as a hair appointment!LOL Thank you all the great comments on my cappuccino finish! Have a great day!

Cappucino Finish!



Oh, I know I am a lazy blogger these days but here is cappuccino by LHN done on 32 count dirty linen. The picture is not so great- as I had a hard time getting a good picture of this. I hope to do all six of these and hang in my kitchen. Next up is frappucino. I tell you as much as I love these-the borders tend to be so tedious! Otherwise not much going on here. I now have two teenagers in my house-EEK! My daughter turned thirteen last Friday. Her birthday list included hair, nails, shopping, ear piercings for the third time, cake and crab legs! I say to her-you do know Christmas is next month! Good grief! I need a second job!

Speaking of Christmas-anyone start their shopping? I have-almost halfway done with the kids. I can't think of anything for the adults yet! Now, I am going to stitch! Have a great week and thanks for all your comments on my finishing. I appreciate them very much!
