Happy Thursday to everyone! We recently attended Butch’s 50th High School Reunion. The decor, food, and fellowship were fabulous. I wanted Butch to share a few thoughts with you, so here we go !

High School days seem to create memories that are very unique as compared to other life events and experiences !

With an even number of “boys and girls”, 16 of the 29 who graduated in my class were able to attend our reunion last weekend. Three or four that had planned to come but had to cancel for various reasons. Not a bad percentage considering!READ MORE

Monday Morning Blooms – Precious Memories

~ Everyday Living, Faith, Monday Morning Blooms

“Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her:”
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭31:28‬ ‭

Happy Monday sweet friends! Today is a special Monday Morning Blooms as it is our Mother’s Day edition. If you have been following my blog for very long, you know that I often share memories of my beloved mother.

I am blessed to have had a Godly mother who poured her life into me. I was overjoyed to become a mother after thirteen years of marriage and more joy flowed when I became a grandmother!

My mother loved fresh flowers and I so enjoyed taking her a fresh bouquet often. Blush and lavender roses, peony tulips, stock, and honeysuckle fill an ironstone pitcher and grace a table set in her memory.

The links for my friends’ beautiful floral inspiration are at the bottom of my post.READ MORE
