Thank you for the comments you made about my Thomas Kinkade post. On my other blog today I used one of his books for what I wrote for Spiritual Sundays. It's about balance. If you are interested in reading it, here is the url.

I love the sunflowers, I had them in my old home in the kitchen, now collecting roosters with sunflowers. I found a lot of my sunflowers and adding them in the kitchen! Now I need to find some silk sunflowers, I going to put in a cotton gin fire container.
I so glad you are joining my Birthday Tea Party! Make sure you put tea in my cup, not your coffee. lol Now you could just drive up and come to my Tea Party at home. It has grown from a few to 20 something. What to do! Everyone is telling everyone in the community and all want to come, and bring guests. Thinking about setting up theme tables in dining, family, and parlor as they all connect and all food and drinks on the sideboards, and buffet. What do you think!
Hi Charlotte,
Thank you for visiting and leaving the kind comment. I love your painted cards - you are very talented!
Tried to call, make sure you all are ok, with the storm coming through. Hope all is well. I have sheet rock in the dining room and I won! I get to get my butlers pantry! Yeah It was a tough win. lol Hope to paint dining, Tuesday. Let me know all is OK.
Where are you? You missed my Tea Party as I did! Hope all is well!
Hi Charlotte!! These are so pretty!! You are one very talented woman!!I might have to see if this is something I could participate in!!
