MARY PAGE HAS ARRIVED

        You remember in my last post I told you about my new friend Mary Page.

Mary Had A Little Lamb

 Mary Page and her mother, dad and older brother live in the most wonderful custom built home.

This is a sneak preview of their living room, new house with

antique mantle.  Check out the great chippy table.

Oh yeah the baby crib covered with lambs wool, filled with lambs and surrounded with baby gifts for yours truly (Mary Page), is usually not in front of the fireplace.

This scene was the focal

point for Mary Page's "Mary had a little lamb" baby shower.

My dear friend, Mary Page's grandmother, Theresa is so creative

she cover the bassinet with a lamb rug.

Center stage is the vintage lamb that her daughter Page

loved dearly for years.

With the help of The Graphic Fairy I found this lovely lamb and

 the poem "Mary had a little Lamb" handwritten.

The cones filled with candy and embillished with graphics and text became the shower guest favor.

Mary Page has arrived, beautiful and perfect,

she is truly a gift from God. 

We are all very blessed.

MARY HAD A LITTLE LAMB

      Mary had a little lamb..... was the theme of a recent baby shower in honor of the sweet mother Page and her baby to be Mary Page.    

                                 

 These tiny baby shoes were a gift to Page when she was born.

  Everything white with lambs and vintage baby clothes were the decorations.

Yummm....Check out these precious Lamb cupcakes.

The color white with silver go together just perfectly.

LOVE IS All AROUND

Wedding Bells ..........are ringing.   I worked a wedding this past week for a dear friend's daughter, which turned out just perfect. 

Young love, is there anything like it?

The wedding took place in St. Joseph's Chapel on the Spring Hill College campus.  Reception followed in the most perfect

venue.  The beautifully renovated top floor of the campus library.

Life is wonderful when the plans workout.

The skies cleared and with a setting sun the evening was kicked off.

Sorry the photos should have been better but I was a little

busy with several thousand roses.

 I think you can still get a feel for the setting, romance was everywhere.  Beautiful

silver gray tablecloths were draped on all tables and bars,

accented with lots of silver, mirrors and votives.

 

Round orbs filled with roses were everywhere,

wonderful eye candy for such a romantic atmosphere.



Sunday I could hardly move so I spent the day in bed relaxing.

It was all worth it, the beautiful bride and good looking groom

laughed and partied all evening with friends

and family.

I am in LOVE!  I have a new love, SALONPAS, peel off pain relief pads for  

Arthritis.  It helps pain in hands, wrist, knees, neck it can

do the trick.  I would have bought a big ole roll of it but

it only came in small patches.  They are good, very, very good.

Thrifty Treasures

Southern Hospitality is hosting her Thrifty Treasures Mondayhttp://southernhospitalityblog.com/thrifty-treasures-highlights/

A few weeks ago I attended an estate sale on its third day.

Even late I stll managed to purchase several pieces.

F B Rogers Silver Company, Taunton, Mass. service was priced right I just couldn't leave it.

Martha had passed away at 91 and never married.

She lived an interesting life in a beautiful southern home and she dearly loved her treasures.

My type of gal.  We could have been friends. 

If we were I would have asked her why did she love this tiny

china bird whistle so much to hold on to it for so long?

I must have purchased 30 misc. books, each holding 

cards, holy cards, notes or paper clippings.

    Martha's old prayer books hold the most interest.

It is lovely to see that since childhood

she held a close relationship with Christ.

Happy Treasure Hunting,  Kathy

Where One Women Creates

 I have enjoyed checking out the studios and workrooms from My Desert Cottage's - Linky Party

"Where Women Create"

Even though I was too late to be featured it is so inspiring

to see your creative areas.  

It motivated me to sort, tidy, fold, label and clean.

I work in a spare room and it needed the attenton.

It is good to know I'm not alone when it comes to limited space.  Tomorrow I am moving my sewing

into my utility room.  You have given me

plenty of good ideas and thank you for sharing
and inspiring me.

Have a great week, Kathy
