We had the best time in St. Augustine, Florida, but so glad to be home. The picture above was an old quilt on a bed in one of the museums we visited. Being the oldest town in the United States we had a lot of exploring to do.

This is the oldest wooden school house. x
On our trolley ride we passed some beautiful Churches. x
We went on a ghost tour at night and had some fun listening to old stories being told, of course I had to snap some pictures to see if they would show up. x
One of the houses that had a wonderful story being told by these two. He told her she was frugal buying the iron toaster she was showing him.

When entering the welcoming warmth of my grandmother's home, her quilt frame had to be moved away from the front door to make room for family and friends to gather. With this in mind, the door is always opened to welcome you.
I have been married to my best friend for 35 years. We have been together since the 7th grade, which at that time I came home and told my Mom who I was going to marry. She just laughed. We have 2 children, a son and a daughter, who is married. We feel her husband is one of ours and they gave us three of the grandest grandkids anyone could ask for.
I love to be creative in all areas, but love to make something out of finds from estate sales to flea markets (trash to treasure). I'll be taking pictures of before and after shots and instructions on how some of the items are made. Sewing is my relaxing hobby. I started in the 5th grade summer.
I know all of us who are creative have big dreams and I hope all of yours come true.
I am blessed to have received so many tags/awards in the past. I feel bad when I cannot do them all justice and hate the thought of some friends feeling left out when they are not chosen. All my blogging friends are special and important to me, so therefore, I request to remain tag/award free.
