Catching up

 Only have taken a few pictures lately and these are a bit scattered but it is what it is so I thought I'd catch up before we head off to NY for a week. Hopefully I will take more there for everyone.
Lynn and her friend Ann came for a wonderful visit. All us girls headed to Atlanta to do some sight seeing. We went to the Aquarium in hopes of killing Lynn off but she's a tough bugger, cancer can't get her and the aquarium can't get her. She'll live to be a hundred!  We had a nice day even though the Coke museum did us in. No problem sleeping that night.
 Here is one of the hugh whale sharks. This thing is about 20 feet long. Very impressive.
 This is a Grooper. It was huge too as you can tell by seeing the people in the foreground. This place is always amazing.
 When Anna and Stratton and Adeline came we thought Adeline might get a kick out of taking the Sprite out for a drive. She loved it.
 Signs of the times. Adeline chilling out with my ipad. She knows what to do with it. Soon infants will be using Ipads in their cribs to call for mom and dad or ask for a diaper change. Yesh!
And voila! I had this little night stand in one of the bedrooms. We have had it forever and it was just a drab old wood tone. It is mahogony or cherry but over the years just a useful stand. When I looked closely at it one day I discovered what cute details it had and how nicely it was made. So I decided to refinish it. Actually, Anna got me going and actually, she did it for me. All I did was buy the paint. Not a bad deal eh?  It turned out so cute. I just love it and am going to use it in my new master bedroom.  Thanks again Anna. I need you to come back real soon.  She also helped me go through most of my kitchen cupboards and I got rid of tons of stuff. Yeah!

  1. That dresser looks so cute! Although, I have to admit, it's cuter in person. Thanks for the updates!
