Liz, I am so glad you mentioned the red straw and candles as I didn't look good enough in the box to find them. Now that I have them I took a pic to post so the gals can see them. I've never seen candles like this, I love them.

Good morning ladies!

Wow, some great RWB gifts there, Karenlily, for LK! Very ingenous to think of a white brush! LK can certainly use another hummingbird feeder to her collection as she's the Hummer Queen!

Liz, thank you for your thoughtfulness! I love that unique planter too. Pegi, I wouldn't leave it outdoors either.
Yep, Liz is always checking 'it' twice!

Betty, I still have to order online for a bridal wreath, can find any around here. Time for shopping out of town is limited, and Kel says to make sure when I order it won't be in a four inch pot!
Your garden's always so enticingly lovely!

Hope to see more RWB beauties.
Those that can't get them out this week, there's always next week.

I may not have kids that could serve for this great country.. but I do have a godson that did his tours in Iraq.
Here's a picture of his newborn son taken a week ago.. Ain't he cute or what?
A proud "Godgranma" here :) Myles Karimi is his name.

Have a beautiful Thursday everyone!

Jaye what a precious photo, omg who ever took it a sense about them in photography.
Just adorable.

Been spending time in the gardens Jaye, enjoying all the pretties coming out and forgetting about all the work involved in gardening..good think I guess.

TabacVille, NC(Zone 7a)

You are continously reaping your rewards Betty! Hope the mosquitoes aren't too bad there.
One day, Kel and I will make it to your home!

Victoria Harbour, ON

Now that would be wonderful, I so loved having the sistah's reunion at my place, tried to treat them well so they will want to come back..might have succeeded, Joyce did and brought friends.
Love having Barb and Norm for part of a week, so much to see and do..

May not have RWB but do have RW you can add the B

remember doors are always open so come on up!

TabacVille, NC(Zone 7a)

That will be a great reunion, Betty!! Kel will certainly enjoy your 'creations' be they with plants, fabric or on canvas!

Victoria Harbour, ON

Tell Kel to be ware, when Norm and Barb were here we had Norm crafting, he painted a linoleum floormat and it was gorgeous and professional so no one is exempt from creating! Lol

Well isn't that precious, do you have a place to set him on a verandah once he's stuffed.

Kansas City (Joyce), MO(Zone 5a)

I don't even know what to say! I got my box from LindaKay and I am speechless. It is amazing just amazing. I am just shocked. So glad I was home to get to open early and to post immediately!!

Guys look at this Red White Blue quilt! I LOVE it and it matches my living room and will not move from there. I hung it from the fireplace so you all could get a good picture of it, but it will stay on my lounger. LOVE it. Thank thank thank you.

That was so amazing but she actually added pot holders course red white and blue and lone star texas...rofl, candles red-white-blue, and smell is incredible, red white blue straws, red white blue flowers too cool, red white blue LIGHT UP balloons rofl, red white and blue seeds Shasta daisy, butterfly weed, Canterbury bells, and wild flax, then the funniest fingernail top coat red white and blue flakes... LOL

Oh LindaKay I don't know what to say but I LOVE everything so much. Thank thank you.

That RW&B quilt is beautiful, plus all the other great goodies. I love that RW&B top coat, think I should be painting my nails. Had to cut my nails short as it is hard to type with long ones. Cleaning out a book case so I can move it to make a little more room around the hospital bed. I have more things in it then books and they sure get dusty fast. I think we are getting more dust and dirt because they are widening a freeway close to us and not only is dirt flying but bad traffic area. DH not doing good today, I never know from day to day how he feels. Won't eat again and I offer a few things I know he likes. Back to work before my pain pill stops working. LOL

We have a side deck with some chairs where he can "sit". He sure is a cutie. :)

Victoria Harbour, ON

Well he'll certainly be the talk of the town, they'll be thinking you've a new man in your life! lol

Kansas City (Joyce), MO(Zone 5a)

He is really cute, just be careful at night he could give you a fright...rofl. I use to have one of those life size dolls and my Mom would wake up at night and walk into the living room and scare herself...LOL

Victoria Harbour, ON

Funny you should say that, I painted a 5' Miss Noseworthy witch on plywood, hung on my front door, don't know how many times it frightened the beejeebers out of me. Lol

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Maryville, TN(Zone 7a)

That is Brody, my snuggle buddy. He just turned 5 on Tues. He so wanted to come home with me with his Sister and Brother but he's quite a mama's boy so I was afraid to bring him 750 miles and then he be unhappy. He went to his grandmas to stay a few days but only made it one. Maybe next year.

Kansas City (Joyce), MO(Zone 5a)

Mine was out fir delivery today earlier

Jaye, Oh, how precious! Thanks for sharing!

Thunder, Your grand babies are precious too. Melena has beautiful eyes!

Karen, I hope Brody can visit with you next year. It can be hard to leave mom. My son is a mommy's boy too. Lol I have to admit, I like him being a mommy's boy. :)

Civlle, Great Box! He'll look great on your side porch.

Joyce, Wow! Your quilt is beautiful! Linda really sent you a nice box. I like the top coat. It looks fun!

I can't wait to see more RWB! I'm loving this swap!

TabacVille, NC(Zone 7a)

I am so tickled with what our JSXTiger (Joyce) had sent to Carole! She's always finding unique stuffs for her swap buddies. You did good, Jax!
That Uncle Sam will make a great greeter, Carole.

Happgarden (Joyce), aren't you blessed too!! I can see you still smiling away! What a beautiful quilt that LK had done.
Yep, she does some amazing work there.. and you can proudly tell others you joined this swap, never expecting be so blessed!

Thunder you know how I feel about Malena. Ryleigh stole my heart too. All baby pictures are beautiful, whether it's studio or home taken!

I am sure Brody would have stayed longer if it's at your home, Karen. You know he's spoiled after you.
Maybe your buddy has her batteries recharged by now.. if not her mind!! Lololol!!!! Yes I can say that and not be rebuked.. :)

I'm expecting to see more pictures! Isn't this swap been an exciting one so far? LOVE all the goodies!! And you can start collecting or doing one for next year.

LK, my dear sistah, you have certainly been one great joy to us here and all that know you.
May you enjoy your birthday and Todd gives you his wallet!!
Happy Birthday LK.
