Pink Depression Glass

May 20, 2013 – 8:21 pm

It all started with a pink depression glass bowl I found at my parent’s house last year. Only one.

I cleaned it and lovingly put away. Not ready to deal with the fact that both Daddy and Janie were gone.

This past week I came across it again and the sorrow was replaced with happy memories.

Memories of excitement cause it was ‘Janie Slop’ dinner night. It was our favorite soup. Memories of four dirty, sweaty kids running with happiness to meet daddy’s car as he pulled in the dusty driveway after a long day at work.

That’s how my pink depression glass obsession started…

My April Fool’s baby turned 7!

Her due date was April 17th but she decided to come early.

Contractions started on the last day of March and I gently pleaded with her to wait long enough to make it to the month of April.

April’s birthstone is diamond.  Just wanted to make it a tad more difficult for her future suitors.  : )

She wanted a fishing pole and a real fishing hat for her birthday.  I am in love with this little tomboy with the quick wit and constant smile (unless I have a camera in my hands).

Here is an iphone pic I got of her and her treasures.

Today

February 10, 2013 – 11:40 am

“Attack today with an enthusiasm like no other!”

When Jim and John Harbaugh’s parents were asked how they raised two sons that were headed to the Superbowl as coaches, Dad’s reply was pretty much the above statement.

That is how I feel today!

Happy Halloween!

Yes, I’m a little late getting this up.  : )

My motley crew dressed in all their glory.

Meet Wolf Man, Zombie and Shark Man.

And Daddy would be the make-up artist for the Zombie.  Great job!
