Feeling the winter as endless, my youngest daughter and I decorated our diningroom windows with hearts for Valentine's Day...when I walk by, and the sky is again muddy-gray, they are making me smile...reminding me that although winter is firmly in our grasp...


There's still a lot of love here in our warm home...
and much to be thankful for...

Oh how darling! She must make your heart skip a beat every time you see her!
We on the other hand or end of the nation are experiencing 80+ degrees again. I envy your Grey skies.

Have a warm toasty day Tara...think of a hot cup of Timmy's in Kentucky...LOL!
