A Year in Review

Hello there! 2011 has been a very busy, fun, eventful, and did I say busy year for my family!

            You know LIFE just sometimes gets in the way... LOL!
And yes, I know and apologize for not posting in way too, too long! I've missed talkin' to y'all these past few months! Hopefully the new year will allow more "ME" time and I will be able to share more, read more, and visit more with the blogging community!

Family is so important to me...

with #1 SON starting a new business

with "Daddy's Girl" (aka "Tennessee Daughter") moving back to Alabama, school, farm life with her hubby

sharing time with my young loves

fun with the Lake Family

 music, music, music

And of course TRAVEL

Change came too this past year.
With a lot of sadness, my friend and me closed 2 antique booths (just too much sT rE Ss for this ole southern gal) 

But as we all know once mother's goin' junkin'...always junkin'!!  

I'm missing the hunt and the thrill of finding that one item that is the... dare I say...the bomb!!

April 27, 2011 will forever live in my heart and mind as one of the worst days as the tornadoes raced across my beloved state of Alabama.

But out of the misery came hope, neighbors helping neighbors, friends and even strangers racing to help, rebuilding a stronger community.


The road to recovery is long... But all of Alabama are traveling it together.  And we are thankful...


Yes, yes, yes, as I look back at the year in review I can really say 2011 has been good to me!

And I'm happily looking forward to what the new year has in store for my friend and me!


Have a Blessed Day!! And see ya down the junkin' road!!

Our Water World

As many of you already know the hubby and I have a little spot on the lake.  We feel fortunate that we are able to walk right out, get on the boat, do a little fishing, and enjoy all the lake has to offer! I must tell you there is nothing quite so calming as drinking that first cup of coffee, sitting on your porch, and watching the sun rise!  Ahhh, our little piece of heaven!!

And today the junkin' road ended at our boat dock!!  I want to share with y'all our water world...

Our lake has hosted bassmasters' tournaments...

And our feathered friends...always a treat to see their actions!

I never get tired of this view...

And after the storms...

"All is well..." 




I hope you've enjoyed the tour of our water world!  Maybe I've brought a little peace and calm to your busy, hectic life. 

Have a Blessed Day!! And see ya down the junkin' road!!
