For the love of trees ~

This past weekend I didn't get a bit done!

We relaxed, built several fires in our fireplace here at the farmhouse....

the hubs made the most wonderful homemade corn chowder and club sandwiches....

we also had precious guests ~

Clara and her mama and we enjoyed their company while

Brent was out tending to errands.

It's been so very cold here in Georgia and the wind has been horrible!

When I lay my head down at night I always am so thankful for a warm place to live....

a precious family that I love and friends that I adore ~

Simple thoughts for your Monday, I know....

I do have a gorgeous moon photo I took one night through the bare pecan trees:

These below are simply a few tree photos I had on file......
they truly are majestic, don't you think?

Wishing you a wonderful Monday precious friends ~

hugs and love,

Dawn

Good stuff ~

I just love this magazine!!!!! But you know it's more than a magazine, right?? So many wonderful artists, many I've never heard of but so glad that I'm introduced to. And to see their creative space is just wonderful!!! I took a few photos to give you an idea of who's featured.....

The amazing Mary Engelbreit ~

The lovely Ruth Rae ~

The amazing Nicol Sayre ~

Sweet Teresa McFayden ~

Wonderful Debbee Thibault ~

Plus there's so many more....I just love seeing their spaces. Seeing how they store their supplies, what inspires them and reading their articles. This is truly one of my very favorite publications of Stampington ~

I picked up something that I just had to try out....and hopefully I'll make more than just the one that I finished!!! It's a yo-yo template thing....I found at Michael's and had to use the coupon so I could try it. I LOVED it!!! Of course being the goob that I am, I made a yoyo from coffee dyed muslin ~ now....I need to think, what can I make from these precious things ~

Yes, they're just waiting....waiting to "BE" ~

I see the moon
The moon see's me
The moon see's the one
I long to see

God bless the moon
And God Bless me
And God bless the one
I long to see

Seems to me
That God above
Created you
For me to love

He picked you out
From all the rest
'Cause He knew
I loved you best.



Happy Thursday my dear friends,
hugs and love,
Dawn
