one big party


Birthday's galore around here!

Everyone in our family has a birthday either in MARCH or MAY...
Yesterday, ANDREA came down to visit, and she brought down
a belated birthday gift for me!
Isn't it lovely!

She has me totally pegged...
I am a obsessed with the VIRGIN MARY...
not so much as a
religious vibe, but just an overall fascination,
and a lot of my ARTwork relates to it somehow...

From my Photographs to my Paintings...
So when I opened Andrea's gift, I could have fallen over... It's so fabulous,
I asked her, to be sure she wanted to give it to me!!!

A very Special gift indeed...totally blown away...
Thank you Andrea, I treasure it!


SPEAKING OF BIRTHDAYS!

My hubby just had one,
AND,

My girl turns 10, Saturday~!!


Yesterday, I swear, my sweet girl was one, and now she's ten...


We are heading to the cabin, so we gave her, her gifts early...

Guess which Birthday gift got a "COOL?"
(referring to yesterday's post)

ha ha ha ha!
It wasn't mine!

he he!
She rcvd a battery operated FAN from her BIG brother!
It has LED lights, and you can program
it to make words in the air when it spins!

yes, How COOL is that!

Quilt? what quilt?

Happy Birthday to one COOL girl!
;-)

  4. I absolutely love the Mary quilted piece, what a lovely gift!

    Happy Birthday to your gorgeous daughter. I also have a May BD. Mine was earlier in the month so I'm a Taurus. I do believe we are into Gemini's now.

    I noticed the pics of the bathtub Mary shrine's, do you have one of those? I hate to say it but I always thought those were a little "unique", to be polite. I was brought up Catholic, so always surrounded with the Virgin Mary, no shrines though.

    Oh, and her portrait quilt is COOL!

    Enjoy the time at the cabin.
