Happy Mother's Day!!!

One of my favorite memories of my mom is riding in the car on

the way to see her parents. It was about an hour drive and she would sing with me. She would sing a little song about chewing Juicy Fruit gum. I loved it. I have so many fun little memories of my mother. She has always been crafty and amusing. :)

I have always known without a doubt that my mother loved me and would always be there for me. She is fun and very funny. I am so glad my kids can enjoy her and love her.

Thank you Mima for being the best Mother!!

I love you bunches

Spring Memories

Hi!!!

On this lovely spring day, I have been thinking about my happy spring memories from childhood. Here are a few.....

My mamaw let me plant my first zinnia in her flower bed. She had such a green thumb and her little white house was always beautifully decorated with flowers...even my Daddy would brag on her for her talent. I miss her.

I remember my mothers pretty sandals, she had all different kinds. She had flip flops and fancy sandals. I would play in them and stand in front of the mirror. :)

Spring clothes were always fun. Much lighter and I hated coats.

Going to the park, Opryland, the amusement park and fun places with Daddy when he picked me up for visitation on Monday nights. I LOVED it. I got to be a princess once a week. :)

I was always terrified of spring storms because of the tornados (without an e on this one Kim) so, Mama would sit on the porch with me and "watch" the storm. This helped me get over most of the fear. I now do this with Emma. She is so scared of the storms.

As I got older, I loved doing the flower bed by our driveway. I did most of it myself. It was great for me because I have always been drawn to color....

My daddy bought a vacation condo on the beach when I was in high school, he would take my friends and I to Florida every spring. It was sooooo fun!!!

These are just some fun memories I have. Would anyone like to share some memories???

Emma's Artwork

From our recent Mommy and Emma night.....

sketches

These aren't very good. I just grabbed Cara's Hello Kitty notebook and her dull pencil and started sketching, no one in particular, just two faces.

When I was a kid, I sketched, until an adult told me I wasn't good. I put down the pencil and gave up.

I think I like it. I am going to go to Hobby Lobby and buy some sketch pencils. I think I love painting more but this is fun too. Practice will make it better. :)

Cara's Art

All of my kids did very well in art and we enjoyed the art show. This is Cara's art, she is in Kindergarten. I am proud of them!!

Have a FUN Saturday!!!
