Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys!

Especially cowboys with dimples!

Look how handsome Hilton looks! I have a weakness for dimples and he has one on his right cheek. Look where he got it from...


Yep! Daddy!

You can't tell in this picture, but Halle has a dimple on her left check. Kindof funny how that worked out. Dad has two, Hilton has one on his right cheek and Halle has one on her left.

My oldest son has none.

The first thing the pediatrician told me when she noticed his dimple was...

When you have two dimples, the devil flew in one dimple and flew out the other dimple.

When you have one dimple, the devil flew in and stayed!

OMGoodness!

That didn't go over well with me then. Post Pardum Depression takes out all the fun! Looking back, I see the humor!

Volunteers, anyone?


Look what volunteered to come up this spring!!! I'm so excited as tulips are my absolute favorite flower! I was a little down about missing the window to plant the bulbs this past winter. I was told that tulip bulbs just can't survive the Texas heat during the summer; thus the bulbs left in the ground will not survive to bloom again in the spring. Well not these beauties! Now, if I can just get these blooms to last more than 2 weeks!

The Easter Photo

I really tried! How do you get all three to cooperate at the same time?
I find myself repeatedly asking this same question. This is my best attempt.
Is that my princess sticking out her tongue?





I have finally arrived!

I have my own website with a shopping cart!!!

Why did it take me so long, You ask?

Intimidation! That is my biggest hurdle when I try to tackle a new task. I'll dream about it and talk about it forever until my brain is really ready to soak it all in. That is why I title this post "I have finally arrived!" I suppose it could also be titled "Revelation!" It seems lately, these past few years, I have arrived at something new or had a "revelation". Is this part of being 30 something?

For the past few years my mind has really developed creatively. A sewing skill I never even dreamed of has saturated my life. It came on so quickly, I just concentrated and went with it. Yep, I've made several mistakes, but I can just chalk those up to experience. I was disappointed when they occured, but I can look back now and feel appreciative of those mishaps.

Now I am at the point where I can really make something of my work from a business standpoint. OK- Here is the next hurdle!!! I'm so intimidated! I've got the design ability and the sewing skills down. So, where is my "owning and operating my own business" revelation??? I will continue to move forward and patiently wait for this revelation; and when it arrives, I will be ready.
