Spring has Arrived! It's a lovely warm but cloudy Easter Sunday. Spring is finally arriving, with the pollen scattered on everything, bulbs blooming everywhere, and the Cherry Blossom Trees in bloom.
This one pictured is in my yard. Planted about 10 years ago as just one little stick.
It is now in bloom and oh so beautiful, it has these fabulous light pink flowers, that will yield to lush green leaves that will stay until fall.
Spring and summer are my favorite time of the year. Spring with all of the birds singing is what inspired me to make the Romantic Bird series of cards. Available as a bumper set, or choose one or two of your personal favorites.
Everyone on your card list would love to receive one of these cards on their next special day! Great for many occasions, each card includes printed sentiment tags, and a blank for you to personalize.
A fun and fabulous place to visit. As I was looking through some photos, this one just jumped out at me. This was taken on a trip to Disney in Orlando, Florida, USA.
As you can tell from the smile on his face, my wonderful, sweet grandson had the best time ever. Limited by health issues, he did not get to ride too many rides, but he did have a blast getting autographs, eating, running, and playing.
He spent time with some of his favorite characters, including Jiminy Cricket.
On this trip he also got to see Epcot, and Sea World. For this news-feed I am featuring my nine tile cards.
This one is the bumper kit! All of the cards are also available individually. You can type the word (tiles) into the search beside my name for individual cards! Thank you.
Angelic Easter Angels... Getting ready for the Easter play at church, practicing their parts...oh, how much fun it must be to be three!
They are all so cute! In the front is my adorable granddaughter, followed by some of her little angelic friends. All of the children are doing such a good job to make the play a success and make their parents, relatives, and friends proud. I'm sure they will be the main attraction!
Two of my granddaughters spent the night recently. We had so much fun. Here they are pictured in their new dresses with matching hair bows, that I made them, having fun and making funny faces for the camera!!
Being a Grandma is so much fun.
Dressed in their new spring dresses reminds me Easter is just around the corner! Click the link on my Easter Peeps Fold Back Mini Kit to see the whole set of Peeps cards!
Our Room with a Spectacular View These are some of the photos we took on a recent weekend visit to North Carolina.
The three shown here was the view of the vineyard at the Biltmore Estate, owned by the Vanderbilt family.
The estate is huge, 250 rooms, 34 bedrooms, 43 bathrooms, and 65 fireplaces, and is the largest home in the US. on 125,000 acres.
George Vanderbilt and his wife Edith Stuyvesant Dresser had one child Cornelia who grew up on the estate. It is now open to the public, and has a beautiful inn that was built for the visitors to stay in when they visit.
The estate has gardens, a winery, a gift shop, and so much more...You can host a wedding on the grounds, stay overnight, or just visit for the day.
If you would like to read the whole story you can visit http://www.biltmore.com/ and also see some glorious photos, past and present, and the most amazing thing about the estate is it is still privately owned and run by the Vanderbilt family.
