did this last week...

changed up the china cabinet...
these were my grandma's...
cute little s&p set...
I always loved them and was so excited to find them when going through her stuff after she passed...
we kind of thought that she had tossed them...

a little lamb that I bought from a blogging friend...
and a souvenir glass, ruby flashed and etched...
Ashland, Ohio...
we lived there for a spell...
I started school there and went K-3rd grades in Ashland before we moved back to Shelby, where I was born...
I found that on ebay years ago...

DH got me the chocolate pot and cream and sugar one year for Valentine's Day...
and the sweet little cup and saucer were from my grandmother's what-not shelf...
she only had the one piece...

infuser...

love this little girl, reminds of my mother...

I have a small collection of lambs...
my sister's head stone has a lamb laying on top of it...
its how I remember her...

and there it is...
I would love to lighten up the inside...
but the cabinet is from my in laws...
and I do not want to deface it in any way...
but if it had a light background, things would look so pretty in there...
I have thought about using vintage music pages...
my father in law, along with being a minister...
used to sing in church...
I also like ceiling tile wall paper and that would look pretty, too...
so what do you think?
what would you do to brighten up the inside?
;)

just a reminder...

of springs past...
what is waiting under all the snow and ice...

all the wonder that sleeps for now...

dreaming of sunshine...

and warmed air...

and I will be here watching it grow when it happens...

happy Saturday to you...
DH is working today, but Craig has the weekend off...
so he will be my right hand guy...
got most of my house work done yesterday...
need to get a load of laundry done...
maybe two...
play with the babies a bit...
and move...
a little sore...
trying some new things...
and I am feeling better, but got to get those muscles back in shape...
and I know round is a shape...
but I would like a bit more strength...
got dirt to dig in in a couple months...
;)
