I began my blog back in November 2010.  My life and blogging were much different back then...

I'm still a southern girl, very thankful for the blessings and grace that God has so richly shown to me.  Our children have grown older and are now both married.  My days are still filled with things close to my heart; my Lord, family and friends, tending the garden, fluffing my nest, remodeling our cabin,

and these days my heart is overflowing with so much love for our first grandson born this past December.

Not too far from us there is a huge shop that's housed in an old textile mill with 100's of vendors.  You can find most anything your heart desires, from upscale fabrics, vintage wares and clothing, fine antiques, and handmade jewelry...it's amazing!  This is where I spend most of Saturday with my mister and our pup Ellie-Mae...it was so much fun!  Hope you are having a fun weekend too.

Welcome to Amaze Me Monday #301!

So, what's the weather like where you are?  Here in NC it was a warm 75 degrees last week and the daffodils and cherry trees are already in bloom.  We are having a "false" spring as it will be getting cold again this coming week.  I hope this crazy February weather doesn't keep us from having a pretty "real" spring!
