Remembering 2012



I started my blog in April of 2012...this was my first post... a vignette that I did on the front porch...
One of my most viewed posts was of our Potting Shed that we made from old doors and windows...
We decorated the house for Easter...
Summer...I love it...and spend lots of time in the yard...

     We had a lot of wonderful family time this year 

I love to do tablescapes...here are some from 2012

Red, white and blue... 
Fall...
Halloween...



And Christmas!
Thank you my sweet blogging friends for a wonderful 2012!


I will be partying here

    We are going to get belted today and tonight with a winter storm. Snow, sleet and freezing rain. Yes, I have to drive to work in it tonight.I long for the time when i can enjoy the snow and not have to worry about going to work in it..... As long as I can get home in the morning as I am off for 2 nights and we will be celebrating my oldest son's birthday. What was I thinking of when I had both sons in December!!

    Hugs,
    Deb
