TWILIGHT DVD PARTY

Here are some of the pictures from last nights "Twilight DVD Release Party" at Borders in Snelleville, GA.

FULL MOON IN GEORGIA

The moon in Stone Mountain, GA...the first was taken with a flash.

Mom & Dad's Pussy Willow

Here are pictures of a Pussy Willow in my parents yard. They aren't sure where it came from but we are enjoying the surprise!

Snow Storm in Atlanta...March 1, 2009



Don't have time to write...but the pictures speak for themselves.






















Hannah and Paul Daniel came from South Korea to enjoy the spring in Stone Mountain!











...and then Mom & Dad's plants covered in snow.

Now we are at my back yard...here is one of my Garden Gnomes...Morgan playing in the snow...and my garden.

BACK AFTER A FEW WEEKS


It's been 3-4 weeks since I put the pictures of our Christmas ornaments online. Shortly after that Post I came down with a cold that hung around for 2 weeks! Then just when I was feeling better I had a trip to the Emergency room at 1030pm & surgery the next day. Now, 2 weeks after having my gallbladder removed,I'm back to work & very easy exercise. So, I thought I better put something on this page. Of course I haven't felt like taking pictures but I figured I could show you a few things that are important to me (other than Forks of course! {and I encourage you to check out Mary Helen's pictures of Forks in the snow!})
First up are two pictures of my cat...Morgan leFey. He's 15-16 years old...was born in Phoenix, AZ...now lives in Stone Mountain, GA. I've talked to him about a move to the Pacific Northwest...I think he's OK with it. Above is a sepia toned picture from last summer in our backyard...below is Morgan in color in the backyard.



This is a new favorite author of mine...Kristin Hannah. She can weave a story about everyday people that you will have a hard time putting down. Truly, it has nothing to do with her books being set in Washington State...that is a bonus!













And of course there is TWILIGHT! I'm definitely "Team Edward"...waiting patiently for Stephenie to get back to "Midnight Sun" someday...please Lord!

Dad's Christmas - 2008

Here are some pictures of Dad's Christmas Ornaments from this year. He only put of two trees this year. Jenny and Dad spent the last couple of days taking down the Nativity Scene, misc decorations and one tree. So, that leaves us with the revolving tree...and they will probably have it put away by the end of the week. It's a sad time...but there is always next Christmas, right?

This is an antique ornament that Mom & Dad have had for ages.

This is handmade by Mom, Dad and me back in the 70's.

This is "The Grandkids Ornament"...all 12 have their names on it.

An Angel...but I don't think Mom made this one.

I made this button ornament...it's one of my favories!

One of our newest...Hannah & Paul Daniel!

A beatiful red ornament that lights up.

JUNE AT FIRST BEACH, WASHINGTON

Today I was checking out one of my favorite blogs...Forks, Washington & The Olympic Peninsula...where Mary Helen had posted some pictures of First Beach, WA. Her pictures were winter shots of pictures I had taken in June. So, she has inspired me to post my summer photos of First Beach. Please check out Mary Helen's site to see what a difference 6 months makes!

The inlet at First Beach...notice how low the water is and the mossy pilings and rocks...June 30, 2008
