Shine On

Last Saturday I went to Lowes with my hubby to get a fan light for his office. His room is upstairs and we thought that might help to keep it a little cooler when the hot weather finally arrives.

Look what he bought me for my sewing room. Now it truly is a man cave for women!

This little light of mine…I’m gonna let it shine!

Look what it does when you turn on the switch…MAGICAL!

Luckiest Girl

I feel like the luckiest girl in the world! My hubby read my last post and then texted me. " Do you want to run away this weekend?" When he came home from work he said that he had read my blog and felt sorry for me. See ladies, it helps to whine every now and then! Away we go!!

Friday was my hubby of almost 37 years birthday. As a surpirse I planned for all of our family to go to the Drive In movie. Yes, Redwood Drive In is still open, and believe it or not there are 6 screens. I read about it in a Sunset magazine and thought it would be fun because that is what we did for our first date. The weather didn't cooperate so the event has been post poned until July. The grand kids were so excited to go so that was a bit of a bummer. With Fathers Day approaching and his recent B'day I wanted to dedicate this post to him. He definately is a Diamond in the rough! People who don't know him very well are a bit frightened of him and don't quite know how to take him. He has this whacky sense of humor and says just crazy off the wall things. Sometimes I can't believe that they are coming out of his mouth. He has the most gentle and tender heart. As one employee from Horrocks once told me "I was more afraid of him than I was of Jim Horrocks. Once I got to know him, I realized that he was just a big teddy bear." He loves his children and many times went without so that they could have something that they needed or wanted. The grand children are the apple of his eye. He's always doing honey do's for me and is very patient and puts up with my whacky ideas. The pics are just the last two projects he did. It may take him a while, but he always gets the job done. I couldn't have asked for a better hubby!
