PINK SATURDAY 12/06/08

Hi friends! It is time for another PINK Saturday post!! Our sweet hostess for this ever-growing event is Beverly of How Sweet the Sound, so please visit her blog here to see all of this week's participants. Our list has rapidly grown to over 100 & you will be amazed at all the pretty pinkness out there!!

This little pink bottle brush tree has decorated my bedroom ever since I was a wee little lass. It is one of the first things I'd grab if our house caught on fire!

My stained glass PINK angel that my dearest of friends Vickie of Visuals by Vickie gave me last year. This stays out year round. The adorable PINK Santa mittens were painted by my sweetheart of a girlfriend Celeste of La Rea Rose. The Venetian Glass Mirror ornament was given to me last year by sweet Amy of Bunny Rose Cottage and I purchased the Victorian Angel several years ago.

Last two pieces of Pinkness are for my dear friend Becca of Of Bluebirds and Roses. She & I have both started Chrismtas Blogs where you can see lots more pinkness & some fun collections. She showed some sweet little angels very similar to mine so I promised to share mine, too.

ANGELIC ACCENTS NEW CHRISTMAS BLOG!

ANGELIC ACCENTS NEW CHRISTMAS BLOG!

Question my sanity, but I've started up a new blog! It's called...

Angelic Accents All Things Christmas

Please take a peek here & let me know what you think. I'll be adding more pictures as soon as I get more decorating done. Mainly pictures, not much text. Lots of closeup pictures, some from past year's decorating. I just adore all things Christmas & want to share my collections with you. Santas, reindeer, bottle brush trees, snowmen, angels, vintage ornaments, the list goes on and on ~ just ask my DH!!

My friend Becca from Of Bluebirds and Roses was the one who inspired me to do this. She also has a Christmas blog here. If you know of others who have Christmas blogs, please email me & I will be happy to add their links to my Christmas blog!

Hugs,

Our sweet daughter's birthday actually fell on Thanksgiving this year so I promised some pictures of her on her special day. Of course we had to have a cake with PINK icing & a PINK sparkly package on it!!

Bree & our precious granddaughter & soon-to-be little grandson!

Bree & Anthony, our son-in-law & soon-to-be new daddy!
Bree is due in January, but I'm not sure she'll last that long!!

Sharing a little of the pinkness in our bedroom with you today. Even Sissy's little shabby chic bed is PINK!


I started unpacking some of my vintage Christmas ornaments Friday.

I just love the pinks!

Happy Pink Hugs,

HAPPY THANKSGIVING 2008

HAPPY THANKSGIVING 2008

I just wanted to take this opportunity to say Happy Thanksgiving to all my special friends. I suspect we will all be busy today, but just wanted you to know that I have already asked God to bless all of my sweet friends, especially my blogging buddies, as I am so very thankful for each & every one of you.

We will be celebrating the day with our daughter & her family. Her birthday is also today, so along with all the pies there will of course be birthday cake! I'll be sure to make lots of pictures to share, as she is the most beautiful & VERY expectant daughter ever!!!

Just wanted to share a little of my Thanksgiving decor with you! Enjoy!

My very favorite Tday piece that I purchased at a sweet couple's booth that I shared a space next to at a craft show we did about 5 years ago

My sweet little Gurley Candle Pilgrim Couple

A fun Gobble Gobble

My sweet Indian Couple

I LOVE white pumpkins

And gold & silver ones, too!

I tried to add my pictures as if you were walking in through our front door & from room to room, but somehow they got all jumbled & I'm too sleepy to rearrange them. Besides, this way you can enlarge them if you see something you want a closer look at, & I've found that if I rearrange them they seem to lose that ability to be enlarged.

A sweet new (to me) blogger named Lisa of Stop and Smell the Chocolates sent me the most wonderful prize for leaving a comment on her terrific blog last month, so I'm posting pictures of all the items she sent me below. Please stop by her blog as it is so fun & uplifting. It is chock full of great pictures, interesting facts, & yummy recipes (see the Nov. 21st post for a great Chocolate Pecans recipe!), and CHOCOLATE!!!! What more could a girl ask for?!?!

Lisa, I simply adore everything you sent, but my very favorite item has to be the wonderful recipe book, as it has come in quite handy this season! And my VERY favorite thing is your super poem!!! I'll treasure it always, my talented new friend!

This pic was just too cute not to share!

May you & your family be blessed with a wonderful & bountiful Thanksgiving. A day of fellowship, terrific food, & sweet memories.

Happy Birthday, Bree ~ I love you so very much!

Thanksgiving Blessings & Hugs to all!
