Happy Pink Saturday

Not much pink going on around my house the past 3 weeks, all preparations for my Sons Boy Scout Eagle Ceremony in full force, as you read this , we will be celebrating his achievement.

We are so very proud of him, he has grown into a wonderful young man.
Another fun story this week , My husband is helping out with the renovation of a house for an Academy Award Nominated Actor, Jeremy Renner.  He was on The "Today" show when they announced the nominations for the Acadamey awards and found out there that he was nominated for Best Actor in the Movie 'The Hurt Locker". At that time they interviewed him and asked how he felt, and he said,,"Im going to have to "Break some Serious Legs" , I thought it would be fun to make him a hankerchief with that statement embroidered on it. My hubby gave it to him and he was very gracious .  Then later this week my hubby brought home the "People Magazine and told me to read an article in it. 
Jeremy mentioned the Hankerchief that I made for him, as his Lucky charm for the Academy Awards..WOW! I never expected anything like that.  Even though my name isnt mentioned, it is still one of the nicest things anyone has ever said.

All of our love and positive energy to him on his awesome achievement. He was really good in this movie.He totally deserves it.

I want to thank Beverly for hosting Pink Saturday
Its always so much fun
Hope everyone has a safe and happy Pink Saturday
Hugs to all :)

Happy Valentines Day

Hope everyone is having a wonderful Valentines Day!!
Its sunny and 70 in So. Cal, today. PERFECT. Im taking advantage of having all my windows wide open , Air out the Winter gloom.  It may not last long , and Ill have to close up all the windows again.
My youngest wanted to make valentine cookies,,yes, he is 10 and still wants mom to do stuff with him, I know that the preteens will hit soon, and he wont want anything to do with me until he is 24  :(  so I suck up all of it, as much of it he wants to give me until then. He wants to be a chef, but is the pickiest eater ever. I told him he needs to at least try everything, and as you get older your tastes change and you may like even more, but at least give everything a chance especially if your going to be a chef, How will you know if it tastes good if you wont even eat it. He loves cookies though, so maybe he can be a pastry chef.  I know that will change too. My middle guy wanted to be a Paleontoligist for as long as I can remember, but now at 18 and getting ready to go to college, he wants to write and produce music for Movies . BIG DIFFERENCE.
So , again, I hope everyone has time to Hug your kids today, and have a beautiful and safe Valentines Day

Happy Pink Saturday

Again , another saturday!! This week has been busy , busy, as usual for me. Last week I told you about the rag quilt that I was making for my son, well its done. I love making these quilts, they are time consuming but easy.  And when it was all done, just the look on my sons face made it all worth it. He will have this forever. Im selling custom similiar on my ebay site, if anyone has a boyscout in their life. I call it a Brag quilt. 

Also this week I started featuring other sellers in my ebay store, My first feature seller is someone that I have sold her items in the past, She paints all my jingle bells for my stockings, and She is my sister.

She made the prettiest vanity mirror, oh my, its yummy, and PINK,,,just in time for that valentine in your life, or for Mothers day. It will look pretty just laying on your vanity, or hanging on the wall. So sweet.
I hope everyone has a wonderful valentines full of love and happiness, and stay safe all.
Thank you beverly for hosting out weekly Pink Saturday, I hope your feeling better.
HUGS EVERYONE
