Happy Pink Saturday

Wow this week has been crazy busy, almost didn't have time to post to my most favorite blogging day, so I'm starting early.

Not much pink , sorry about that. The week started out with a year in planning Family Reunion in Yosemite National Park , and lasted through Wednesday, It was amazing and memory making, wonderful pictures for a scrapbook, try getting everyone together for ONE picture,,,A challenge. My kids learned the faces that went with the names, many stories and LOTS of fun, Hugs and Tears.  I made Memory rocks with all the names of those that have past, and we threw them into the river after a prayer and listening to a wonderful recording of my grandad talking about his grandchildren and Yosemite, it was like he was there with us. A wonderful emotional experience.

Then after being home for one day, and working on the never ending pile of laundry, a fire broke out in the hills above our town. BURNING out of control, many being evacuated , and the smoke is horrible. We are not in danger, at least I don't think so , at least by the fire, but the smoke may chase us out until it is over.

So , the only pink I have is from the pictures of the fire and of course to remind you that today is the last day to be part of my CHRISTMAS IN JULY GIVEAWAY.

And thank you Beverly for being such an awesome hostess for our pinkie lovers. 

Hope everyone has a SAFE and Happy PINK Saturday!!

Happy Pink Saturday!

Alot of crazy weather around here this week, power on , power off, thunder,lightening strikes, fires, flash flood rain. So due to this I really didnt get much done this week. I wanted to show something pink, somethink new, but I havent worked on anything PINK. So I figured Id give you an update on Our Little Frank the kitten.
He actually gets into this "PINK" bowl all the time, has pushed it onto the floor in frisky kitten style, He is so crazy active, I guess its been a long time since we had a kitten in the house, Cant wait for him to get past this stage, he is very destructive too. You all know what I mean. But the worse thing, is that we have to lock him up in the bathroom at night because he jump on your head while you sleep , he likes to sleep on my neck, and that freaks me out. He is growing everyday and thinks he's boss.


That's all the pink I have this week, And all next week Ill be finishing up on my year long preparation of my family reunion, I cant wait.

This was Frank about 6 weeks ago

Thank you to Beverly for hosting my favorite Blogging day, I hope you find time to go see her too!!

Christmas in July at Cinnamonstitch ~Happy Pink Saturday~

Good Morning all you wonderful Pink Bloggy Friends! Another July has come around and many of us are busy preparing for the upcoming Christmas Holiday Season.  I have been making these stockings for my entire married life and longer, Of course , they are changed over the years to go with what was in at that time. Every Year I try to change them up a little because there are so many wonderful Stocking Makers also.
This year I started using Colorized Antique Images. Some are of these wonderful images came from my family, and some I have found at Antique stores, Thrift stores etc. Finding them at Yard sales is sad, why would anyone want to practically giveaway these treasures. I recently got access to many family pictures that dated back to my great great grandparents, some pictures from the civil war era, I immediately put names and any information I had on them, so my children and beyond will know who they are , so they are not found in a pile on someones driveway.


 I will still be using all the beautiful images and more that I have used in the past, But this year I added some of these priceless treasures, I hope you like them as much as I do. Dont forget to check out my giveaway for July. :)

I hope everyone has a safe and Happy 4th of July, and celebrate our freedom in this wonderful country we live in, and GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!
