Home




I just love where we live! Every season has it's beauty up here. They are each unique. I think that fall is my favorite time of year but Winter sure can be pretty too....yes.....even though it's cold at times. I love looking out over the valley seeing the fog resting like a big fluffy blanket. And the clouds as they come up the hill are a sight to see. They dance and swirl. It's so pretty! The snow is peaceful to watch. It's so silent when it falls.

Sweetheart


Valentine's is soon approaching. I have been super busy making some of my jewelry for this special holiday. There are many items (pictured pendants above to be added soon) in my shop besides those set aside that are a perfect gift for someone special. Be sure to visit my shop! You might just find that perfect gift for the one you love.

I Corinthians 13:4-7
Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.

So Cute!

Since I've joined Etsy I have met some really nice people in chat. There is so much talent on this site, so much creativity. I love all the things that people come up with. Some are quite unique and original. Here are a few of my favorite things that are so adorable I must share them...


This is Huckleberry by sleepking. He is about the cutest little bird I have ever seen with his little hat. Each of her items have their own little personality it seems. They have so much character and they are so detailed. Take a look at her little critters!

This is Lil Luv Owl by mindybanta. She makes the cutest little owls! You can tell that each one she makes is very detailed and that she puts a lot of time and care into her work. Check out her shop it's very cute.

Lovely view....


I just love living in the mountains. It is so pretty and peaceful up here and it is difficult to leave sometimes to drive down into the valley. The air seems a bit more crisp and clean. Here is a picture of the valley covered by a blanket of fog as the sun is setting.

Winter Wonderland




Figured I should post something since I haven't for some time. We had our first snow this month. I love it when it snows. It just makes everything even more beautiful! I love watching the snow flakes float to the ground so peacefully. They are so quiet and delicate. The big flurries are my favorite. It's so nice to sit on the couch by the fire burning in our wood stove and see the snow falling out our big window. Here are some pics....

Bird Watching!!!



I just love my home! There are so many birds out here in the morning and all throughout the day. I could just sit outside all day and watch them. I've seen so many different kinds of birds during the different seasons. The colors are amazing!!! They all have different personalities as well. The Jay's seem to intimidate all the other little birds. Here are some birds that I have seen.

Abundance of Pine Cones


So, since I live in the mountains we have many pine cones and I have been trying to think of something to do with them other than raking them up and tossing them. I think that I finally came up with a craft. What may it be you ask? Well, you will just have to wait and see. ;-)

First Blog!


This is all so new to me but I thought I would give it a try. I am just so in love with all the beauty of nature that surrounds me. I could spend endless hours outside watching the birds and looking at all the beautiful trees and flowers. I never get tired of the sunsets at home. It is so pretty where I live and sometimes it's very hard to leave home.

Recently I started a shop on Etsy to share my views of nature. I love taking pictures of so many things. I hope that other people will enjoy what I have created in my shop.
