Good Morning Jane Sweetie..
Congrats to Laurie. She will have fun with this gift card.

I am sorry I missed it, durn it. I love the table makeover you did below. Now Jane that is scrumptous. I so love the look. You did an awesome job.

Now I love Layla. Doesn't she just look snug as a bug? Her face is precious sweetie. My Bruiser sends her a big Hello Lick. He licks everyone he likes.

I see you are having some cooler temps. We are still having triple digits here. I don't see any cooling trend in the forecast.

Many hugs sweet friend, and so much love, Sherry

Blondie do you have a new look for your blog? I think it looks so pretty, but forgive me if I just didn't notice it before. My favorite is your glittery header! Did you make that your self?

Hi
Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving an encouraging word. I just haven't had time to do anything but move the shop for the last month. So this morning I am trying to catch up a little and then back to work on finding a place for all this junk! If my kids don't put me on Hoarders I will be lucky ;)
Blessings

Jacqueline @ HOME said...

Well done to the winner. A lovely gift to win.
Wishing you and your family a wonderful holiday weekend. XXXX

Cape Cod Rambling Rose said...

Thank you for your sweet note on my blog! Now that I think of it, when I was a kid and we were camping in NH in that same trailer, we had a freak mini-twister one summer. Our campground was in a valley (the twister was stuck, hitting off the sides of the mountains), and that trailer swayed back and forth (I got seasick)! A fellow camper's picnic table flew up into the air and hit a tree, and everyone's outside chairs, candles, grilling utensils (you name it) were scattered everywhere when all was done. I feel much safer today in my house than I did in that trailer! lol

Deb said...
