Happy St. Patrick's Day!

For St. Paddy's day, my neice Mackenzie, drew me a picture. Today, we're having a play date.  I'm picking her up from school and we're probably going to Chick-Fil-A.  She informed me, "Aunt Nette, if you don't wear green, I'm going to pinch you".  It was then I realized - I DON'T OWN ANY GREEN CLOTHING!!!

At any rate, in honor of her and good ol' St. Paddy, I'm sharing her card with you.

I'm pretty sure that's "Shamrock Dance", but it's cuter this way.

aaand... the back of the card.

 Am I saving this?  You betcha!  I've scanned it and saved it.  One day, I'll have a digital scrapbook of all the things my neices and nephew give me and maybe make them an album.

So, from Mackenzie and me... Happy St. Patrick's Day!     ...now to find something green...

Sort of a Wordless Wednesday - Pictures from the wedding

Wordless Wednesday - sorta!

This past Saturday was the wedding for my cousin, who is also a member of the "Real Women Eat" group.  It was an outdoor wedding at a bed and breakfast in Auburndale, FL called Town Manor.

It was so beautiful and drenched in the fresh smell of orange blossoms!  A note of warning if you want to find this place...  don't blink!   You'll pass right by it if you're not careful, (ask me how I ---and several other guests ahead of us-- know!)

The wedding was held at 4:30 pm and, sorry I don't have more pictures to share but we were all facing the sun so most of the pictures of the wedding party turned out to be shadow figures with my poor little camera.

I just thought it was funny to see everyone shielding their eyes. (Thank you Town Manor for providing the fans)

I did shoot a good one of her coming down the aisle with her dad (my uncle)

  

ooooh  that dress was gorgeous!

and, a group of some of the cousins together at the reception...

in back - left to right:  me, Karen, and Kim.

like any good Southern wedding, in those goblets?  Iced Tea!
