Fabrics from the Sea

My mind keeps sneaking back to the Florida Keys.  I can feel the soft breeze, smell the salt air, & feel the sand beneath my feet.  Oh the Northwest rain....booohooo!  

Check out the Neptune & Oceana fabrics by Thomas Paul from Calico Corners.  I like the neutral beachy fabric of shells, turtles, octopus, and brown ticking.  This fabric would go with so many colors.  I am thinking pillows, curtains??
Hoping the fabric will keep my mind fresh with ocean breezes rather than the wet rain!!!

Kayla's Birthday

Today our our first grand child turns 11.  Yep, she's 11 today!  We called this morning to sing her Happy Birthday.
Papa's morning reading included  Proverbs 17:6:
Children's Children are a crown to the aged.       Soooo true!    Although I am not ready to concede being aged.
She is the leader of our little troop of six.  They all look up to her, follow her, and want to spend time with her.  She brings such joy to all of us.  Thank you Lord for Kayla.
Her blog is Kayla's funky closet!

This morning I was trying to capture why I love tulips with a picture.  They make me smile!  I noticed I captured the morning sun in the picture.  Giddy up!  Good morning sunshine!
