Wednesdays With My Mom

Another leg of the honeymoon. My parents went to Iowa so my mother could meet some of my dad's family. My dad was raised there. By this time, my grandfather had already passed away my grandmother had moved to California and attended their wedding. This photo is of my mother, on the left, and my Aunt Lois with her two daughters.
When I first arrived, we had lunch on my mom's back porch. I had to take this photo of her watering her geraniums just because I thought it was cute.

My mom is FAMOUS for being the shoe queen. All of her daughters and grand daughters blame her for their shoe addiction. Anyway, she's such a good sport about me taking all kinds of silly photos of her. : )

Okay, that morning before I left I was looking through an ad for Pier 1. I don't shop there very often, but when I turned the page and saw these lovely little glitter houses, my heart skipped a beat. I immediately called to see if they had any left and had them hold all three of these for me. Just so you know, they're only about 4 inches tall. I'm planning on turning them into Christmas houses and making a little German glitterhouse display this year.

I just had to take a photo of my mom sitting in a black and white chair. : )

I thought this frame, above, was so pretty. It looks like real lace, but it's just resin like the rest of the frame. It gave me the idea of maybe putting real lace on an existing frame and then spray painting it???

These may not look big in the photo but they were about 20" tall and about 5' long.

Have a good weekend everyone.
