Spring is Almost here!

Well, I do have to say....I am sooooo ready for Spring!! My favorite flower is lilacs!! I have 2 lilac bushes and they are starting to bloom!! Now if only the sun would stay out long enough to pop them all open!!

I just had to go outside yesterday and snap some photos of the lilacs. Aren't they gorgeous?? I can already smell 'em!!

I also have a beautiful Orchid I bought at Costco the other day, so I took some photos of it too!

I just have to share some pics of the girls modeling lately.

I got this "oh-so-cute" PINK CHAIR to go in my office/sewing room!! I'm so excited, I just LOVE it!!! I'm redoing my office room in a new color...yes, you guessed it...PINK!! Everyone who knows me knows I love pink! Soooo...when I saw this chair I just HAD to have it!! So why not use it in my photograpy too!!

Here's Abbie being the first to model it for me! This darling black dress with white polkadots is from Kohl's. When I saw it, I just had to get it for her!! So darling! The cute pink shoes you see are from sweet soles. They have some really cute shoes for kids! The darling bows were made especially for this outfit by redsbowtique.

Ashlie modeled this DARLING ladybug outfit designed and created by Jen of toadally*cute! Oh my goodness!! Jen is such a great designer and her work is simply impeccable! I just can't say enough about her. She's such a sweet & loving person and so easy to work with. We really LOVED working with her on this modeling/photography job. Ashlie just LOVES the outfit too!!

The darling bows are from Cindy of girls*love*bows and the sweet necklace and bracelt are from Cathy of just*a*blingin!
Emelie modeled this DARLING outfit designed and created by Jen of toadally*cute!! Emelie just LOVES this outfit!! The colors look fabulous on her and what a cute set!! I really LOVE how this turned out and how well it looks on her!


This darling headband with clippies was designed by Cathy of girls*love*bows. It matches the outfit perfectly!! She did a great job capturing the colors and birds!

As you can see I'm getting alot of use out of my new PINK CHAIR!! hehe....

I want to say a special thank you to all the designers for allowing us the opportunity to model for you!

Memories of my Father

Memories of my father
brings not sadness
but a smile
for the memories
are very good.
The sadness comes only

at the thought of no new

memories to come.

We lost not a saint for

he was too full of life

to be a saint.

What was lost was one

very, very, good man.

Where I to search the world

and all time, never would

I find a man I would rather

call father...

I AM FREE

Photos by: Robin Long Photography

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free,

I am following the path God laid for me.

I took His hand when I heard Him call,

I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day, to laugh,

to love, to work or play.

Tasks undone must stay that way.

I found that peace at the close of the day.

If my parting has left a void,

then fill it with remembered joy.

A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss.

Ah, these things I too will miss.

Be not burdened with time of sorrow,

I wish for you the sunshine of tomorrow.

My life's been full, I savored much,

Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch.

Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,

Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.

Lift up your hearts and share with me,

God wants me now, He set me free.

I miss my dad terribly. I was not ready for him to go. I will always treasure the time we shared and the love between a father and a daughter will always be remembered.

Thank you to all my friends and family for your thoughtfulness, kind words, hugs, smiles, shoulders, and shared tears. You'll never know how much it means to have you in my life.
