Inspiration Sunday


As I travel life's road and cross many bridges in my life, I put my trust in God's amazing Love, He has said "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, but my father only", knows when my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will call His own home.Matthew 24:36.   I will not be afraid for He is mine and I am His.    Psalm 56: 3,4 "But when I am afraid, I will put my trust in you, I praise God for what he has promised. I trust in God, so why should I be afraid".   "It is the  Lord who goes before you.  He will be with you, he will not leave you or forsake you.  Do not fear or be dismayed.  Deuteronomy 31:8.

MAY GOD GO BEFORE YOU,
HAVE A BLESSED DAY ..

NEW FINDS

This morning I wanted to share a few items I've found while out shopping.  A couple weeks ago my friend, Jane and I went  to Juliette to have lunch at the Whistle Stop Cafe.  I found this cute spoon rest in a shop there.  I can't believe this is the only thing I bought.



Here is Jane in the cafe, she would only let me take her picture from afar.  If you remember a few weeks ago I posted about my  trip to Juliette with my hubby, the cafe was about to close so we didn't get to eat there, and when I told Jane about our visited she wanted us to go. 



Whistle Stop Cafe






This is my plate.  I love sweet potato fries and grill chicken sandwiches.  







Friday Jane came to visit me and we went shopping in my town where there are several local antique and consignment shops.  We had a walk in the park in town and then on to shopping. I found this hatbox at one of the stores and was so surprised at the price, only $2.99.




I love hatboxes.  I am using this one to store some of my mini tea sets.  




Jane just had to buy me this plate when I was admiring it.  She said that I could remember her by it, she is such a generous and good friend, I told her I didn't need anything  for me to remember her by.  When I got home with it I noticed I had a teacup and a vase, (that seems to me), that the rose pattern  matched. This morning I made myself a cup of Earl Gray tea with cinnamon raisin toast for breakfast.  




I love the  edges of the plate and vase. I had the ribbon on the vase but I think I like it better without it.


HAVE A BLESSED DAY!

EARLY VALENTINE BRUNCH TEA

On Saturday I had a Valentine Brunch Tea for my daughters, granddaughters and myself.  My grandchildren are into all kinds of sports so it's hard to find a day that the 6 of us can get together at the same time.  When they told me the second of February was open, I quickly planned it for that day.  We enjoyed brunch and spent a couple of hours playing games, laughing and enjoying the afternoon.  

Here are some pictures took.










My husband and Daughter both gave me a dozen pink roses!
