Good morning! It's Thursday and I gotta go to work in a bit but I wanted to jump on here and say Hi to everyone. Last night I was cleaning out the basement and I found some books with tons of cross stitch patterns in them. I decided that I would start sharing them with you. Understand that I am too lazy to scan them so I am taking nice clean pictures of them instead. Most of them are "victorian" patterns. My favorite! Also I took a picture of my flower outside because it is the first time I have grown Tulips and I am so excited! Me and the kids ran outside yesterday when we all got home from school and work to see them because it was 70 out yesterday! I am so glad it is finally going to be warm here for a while. Hope you all have a wonderful day! If you like this pattern and want more, remember to follow my blog! Stay save and cool today!   If you download this photo or simply click on it, it will be much bigger. Also if you are having a hard ...

This morning it is raining once again in Montana. I really want to see the sun! My whole weekend has been dark and gloomy. This morning I got onto the computer to look at flowers to make myself happier and feel more "springish" , if that is even a word, and I was reminded of these super cute bowls! So now I am thinking I just might get an early Mother's Day gift for myself, from myself!  I am really excited because my peonies are actually coming up this year. I have had them for 3 years now and every year they only grow leaves. This year however, I have way more leaves and shoots than I have ever seen and so I am actually not sure if I will have flowers or not but I am wishing and hoping that is a good indication that I will! Fingers are crossed! I did plant some Basil, Rosemary and Cilantro for some big pots outside. I really enjoy gardening. I started just last year and I gotta say, its so fun! I also planted Tulips for the first time and they are really prett...

Baby Doll Dress FREE CROCHET PATTERN I was just wondering if was the only one that has like 80 different projects going and not wanting to really work on one thing or the other.... Then when that happens,  overwhelm sets in and I just feel like I can never get them all done. One at a time one at a time right? WRONG! I just start a whole other project that I know is small and I know I will get done leaving all the others to frustrate me another day. HA! So if you are like me then you will appreciate this pattern that I am going to put in here! Its a cute little baby doll dress! First time for me making clothing. Gotta start somewhere! :)  DRESS: Finished size is about 4" x 4"1/2. Use an H hook. Grab some buttons or maybe some ribbon for the neck of the dress. Its yours so you can decorate it how ever you want! :) I used orange yarn because - it was easy to reach from where I was sitting at the time ;) Pink I think or yellow would be much cuter. Maybe...

GOOD DAY EVERYONE! I hope you are all doing well. It has been raining here in Montana for about 2 weeks now, but today the sun is out and it feels really warm. I am very happy. Makes for a perfect Saturday.  I work during the week but love to paint and garden during the weekends. My plans are to take pictures of my daughter before she goes back to Korea :(, plant my garlic and onions and work on my paintings. I have two that are in "the process of". A rabbit is one and a large Elk overlooking Montana is the other.  I also wanted to share with you this lotion from Avon. I know this is going to sound really horrible. I have been selling Avon for about 7 years now and not once have I actually tried the Moisture Therapy basic lotion. I am that girl who likes to buy the smelly lotions. So I have always picked up  the smelly lotions . Last night however, my hands were so dry so I decided to open up a bottle that I had laying around as an extra. My garden friends al...

THE HOTTEST TREND IN SKIN CARE Inspired by ancient Asian beauty rituals, the sheet masks hold a generous amount of  serum  and are designed to fit the contours of your face like a  second skin  to reduce evaporation.  Infused essences  are continuously and evenly released for  immediate  and  enhanced  benefits. For immediate lift or instant glow, use the mask  1-2 times per week  after cleansing and before your regular skin care routine.  Step 1:   Remove mask from package and unfold carefully.  Step 2 :  Place gently and carefully on face. It may not fit your face perfectly and that is to be expected. Not all faces are the same. Your beauty is your own! Step 3:   Let sit on your face for about 15- 20 min. Some people have let it sit on longer than that. It all depends on you and how you feel.  Step 4:   Carefully remove mask and message in serum that is left...

As a mother of six, I could not help but smile after reading this from the Book of Virtues.  Which Loved Best? by Joy Allison "I love you Mother," said little John;   Then forgetting his work, his cap went on.  And he was off to the garden swing,    Leaving his mother the wood to bring.  "I love you Mother," said rosy Nell,  "I love you more than tongue can tell."  Then she teased and pouted full half the day.  Till her mother was glad when she went to play.  "I love you Mother," said little Fan,  "Today I'll help you all I can;  How glad I am that school doesn't keep!"  And she rocked the babe til he fell asleep.  Then stepping softly, she took the broom,  And swept the floor, and dusted the room.  Busy and happy all day was she;  Helpful and happy as a child could be.  "I love you Mother," again they said,  Three little childr...

Get your Skin So Soft Today Lets talk about bug spray. I have been reading some research about the difference between "deet" products and "without deet" products. There are a lot of information out there claiming that deet will cause extreme damage to our bodies. However, a lot of websites say that deet is not the problematic chemical that it has been known to be. It can really get confusing! So I went to the EPA! The EPA has written " The Agency has not identified any risks of concern to human health, non-target species or the environment." So what is the problem with it?  I then decided to see if there were any studies out there for deet products vs Avon skin so soft products. Here is what I found: According to the BCMedical Journal, " T ests were undertaken to determine the effectiveness of three mosquito repellents: 95% DEET, Avon Skin So Soft bath oil, and a “special mixture” of substances thought to have insect repellent qua...
