Cardinals




Right outside my back door these precious birds hang out in my little trees. I have always loved Cardinals, perhaps it is the males brilliant red plumage, my favorite color which happens to be red. I don't know I have always thought they were pretty. My first time seeing them in real life was when we moved here to Indiana. And now I get my own personal flock that visits my yard! Eeeeep!




I also love their little faux hawk hair dos...and black masks...They are quite the little intriguing characters. One of a kind for sure!

Happy new Year 2018

2017 brought some deep broken hearts with the loss of my beloved Uncle, my Aunt, my Hubby’s Uncle and his Dad. Yet it brought us many joys too.! We moved into a darling little brick house in town, my daughter met the guy of her dreams, we got to meet my son’s girlfriend, my girl and I went on many adventures together, we were visited by my momma and pops, my son came for a visit during the Summer, my daughter finished a few plays and we ate a lot of Chick-fil-A for some weird reason. Here’s to a good year ahead!


My girls boyfriend celebrated his 19th candle. She went to his birthday dinner with him and his family. I love the picture they had taken while at the restaurant. 
What a sweet way to ring in the New Year together! 






In the meantime Christmas is getting all packed up and put away until next year....Prayerfully the New Year will bring a lot more joy into our lives. I know life is out of our control, but we can hope for a bit more peace, joy and happiness right? This year, I have many good intentions, I don't promise myself resolutions that are sometimes unrealistic. It will take baby steps to reach some goals and dreams as well as determination and patience. All I can say is I will try harder if I succeed then yay, if I fail, which I may at some things, well then try try again...I won't give up!
Here's to a better year, 2018....Be blessed y'all!
