Easter Picnic Set #Giveaway Powered By #CatholicCentral #EasterTraditions
Easter is one of the most celebrated and cherished holidays and I am super excited to partner with Catholic Central to celebrate this time of new life and transformation with an Easter Picnic Set Giveaway. Growing up Easter Sunday was always a favorite of mine. We had new dresses, crisp and white. White gloves and a little purse too!! Along with white patent leather shoes with a bow. I always had a bow. After Easter Sunday those became my Sunday Shoes, I would wear those shoes till they were so tight my toes curled. Then Sunday Mass and then off to a HUGE Easter dinner with all the family. There…

April 12th Photo-A-Day PEACEFUL
Finally, my Photo-A-Day prompt that isn’t IN the house or AROUND the house. Are you excited?? I actually took these pictures a couple of weeks ago. The Husband had a doctor’s appointment and I wanted the opportunity to walk through the Healing Garden. The Healing Garden is between Sandpoint Idaho’s hospital and the doctors’ buildings. It’s the perfect little PEACEFUL spot. I had never taken the time to walk through the garden but The Husbands appointment took forEVER. Side note here (yes, sidetrack again!) doctors appointments in California take 40 minutes to get in and 10 minutes with the doctor. IF YOU ARE LUCKY!! The same appointment here in Sandpoint…

April 11th Photo-A-Day TROPHIES
My TROPHIES are different than most. I don’t do sports so there will never be a little baseball player on a trophy. Not even in school! I do NOT run. As a matter of fact if you DO see me running. Keep up or run faster cause sumthin’ big is headed our way! I bowl but with a 135 average I am not gonna get a trophy that way. I haven’t gone hunting since I moved away from home in 1977! So, no heads on the wall here. Nope, my trophies are photographs. Since moving to Sandpoint, Idaho my Nikon, my Galaxy S8 phone and my trail cams have given…

April 10th Photo-A-Day Signs Of Spring
My Photo-A-Day Signs Of Spring, is kinda funny because it is a gloomy day here in Sandpoint, Idaho. The sky is gray. It’s been raining on and off all day and expected to continue till next week. Ackkkkkkkkkk that mud hole at the end of the driveaway is only gonna get worse. I should have kept track of the number of stuck vehicles that had to be pulled out of the mud. Some are so stuck that I think they may just pop up on a USED CAR for sale site with a side note that says owner must pick up, no delivery available. So, my Signs Of Spring could…

Photo-A-Day For April Slowly
When I saw today’s prompt for the Photo-A-Day I immediately thought of Michele and her newly done driveway! I thought ya know what I HAVE THE PERFECT set of pictures!!! See this is how my mind works. Michele has a new drive and I put that together with me having to walk SLOWLY to the front door because of the walkway. Seriously, who designs a walkway that is so uneven? It’s pretty. But, when you come visit walk SLOWLY! SERIOUSLY!! Watch where you step and walk up to the door slowly! It is a beautiful view to the house so it’s easy to forget to look down. See the…

April 8th, Photo-A-Day Treasure
Today’s Photo-A-Day is Treasure. Wayyyyyyy back when The Husband and I went through a time; like everyone does where you struggle to make ends meet. Like send the electric bill to the the phone bill people just to try and stretch out the time before the phones went dead. It was Christmas time and we were struggling to put presents under the tree. I hit every Goodwill, Amvets, and thrift store within a 25 miles radius. I washed, ironed and wrapped presents. I made toys. We really stretched our budget to the max for Christmas. Then I did something sooooooooo stupid. I used a large portion of my budget for…
