PINK HAPPINESS

This is the newest tiny in our phamily. He will be  a whole two weeks old tomorrow! Of course, this handsome fellow is a little gentleman!

We just found out my niece Kate will have another girl in March. She is due about the same time as my daughter-in-law Brittany. My phamily will welcome another little boy into our world but Kate will be tickled pink.

Little boys are so easy to raise. Little girls, not so much. They are more demanding and pouty. But I would not trade the kids I have for anyone else's.

A few more pinterest finds in pink. Make sure you visit Pink Saturday and share your own pinks. I wonder if this trailer park had any pink modular homes? Hmmm.....

Strawberries and Cream and Cream Cheese cake. So pretty in pink. Do you think it may be calorie free?

A pinterest find in tiny cottage pink house. Suzanne McCrone is the lovely photographer here. Check out her cool pink bike too.

PINK SATURDAY

When I don't have to drive in downtown Denver, I love to snap photos. This is from my iphone so it is not really terrific. But SNARFS Sandwich Shop is HOT PINK! Not all of their shops are this neon but it is a healthy place to grab a bite to eat. I hope you stop by Pink Saturday and share some pink!

October is a month to remind us to do the self check breast exams. Having lost my favorite Aunt Ang to this dreadful disease in August 2000, I would love to see this disease wiped out.
 She was the coolest person and I miss her terribly. While I read all the classics like my Uncle Louie, her husband, she loved to read the Harlequin romance novels.

  They were so beautiful and so young. Always looking sharp and polished. Missing her always.

Pretty Pink Saturday

I have collected the sweet figurine Precious Moments since 1983. I often kid my sister that the hospital where our dad spent 38 days on ICU should have renamed their gift shop for my sister and I.

This is one we received for our wedding.

Here is a phamily of puppies. I have a similar figurine with mom, dad and five babies! That would be our phamily.

This little boys face is priceless and very sad. I love this figurine and all the ones that feature little boys. There are so many that I have, probably 125, and I could tell you a story behind each and every one. The artist behind these precious moments is a wonderful man, Sam Butcher, with his own story to tell.

I recently started to collect the ornaments. I try to find them in duplicate so I can give my sister one and I keep the other. She gave me so many Precious Moments figurines in the past. Do you collect anything? Do you love the Precious Moments? I hope you will stop by Pink Saturday and visit Beverly and thank her for always hosting. Have a blessed and beautiful week.

"T" is for Tea and Things and Pink Saturday with Breast Cancer Awareness

I love tea and all thing related to tea. Since I have been unemployed it has been tough, not being able to buy all the tea and such that I love. But I found a new tea today,

Elderberry wine is quite sweet and it is good, I purchased some last year while visiting Nick in Kansas. It was made locally and I always buy from small businesses. So when I found all the health benefits of the Elderberry tea I thought I need to get some of this.It is filled with many healing qualities and people often like to drink it when they feel a cold coming on or when they have a cold.

Here is another tea with some healing qualities. You can find lots of huckleberry items in Idaho and Montana. They love their huckleberries. I think I need some biscuits and Huckleberry Preserves. Sigh!

A perfectly beautiful pinterest find! Let's have a tea party.

A pretty image at google from a mismatched tea party. I imagine they were enjoying the Mad Hatter and Alice in Wonderland.

Silly rabbit and Alice watching that Mad Hatter. Alice has no hat. I will fix that!

Hats in boxes for all kinds of fun!

Berkley Hats wants to share in the tea party fun. Lots of styles and colors to choose.

An Autumn style pinterest find. So pretty and elegant for my tea party that you are invited to!

Some treats to enjoy! Now you just need to remember which tea is your favorite and do you prefer it hot or cold? Please join Ms. Jenny today and share your favorite "T" tyme treats too!






Then hop over to Beverly's and join October Breast Cancer Awareness month. I noticed lots of the teams were wearing their pinks to show support in the NFL. I found these eggs at the grocery store:

Aren't these Eggland's Best eggs just sweet with their tiny pink breast cancer ribbon showing support? Lots of wonderful survivors out there, Coni, who lost her dad Dave Sanders at the Columbine HS school shooting is one herself. She recently remarried and we are grateful she is here. She is a shining light in these dark times. My aunt Ang lost her battle in 2000 and my sister's friend Joan is kicking cancer's butt again having just completed her final round of radiation and chemo! Pray for all those effected by this awful disease. Remember, get your annual mammogram! Mine is due in December 2015. My maternal grandmother and two of my dad's sisters were survivors when they basically told you, ok, we cut off your boobs now go home and take care of your families! It is amazing they survived in the 1950's and 1960's because they did not have the treatment that is     available today.

"I'm happy to tell you that having been through surgery and chemotherapy and radiation, breast cancer is officially behind me. I feel absolutely great and I am raring to go."
