love is in the air images...

see what you can do  with these...

cold today- it's 11 out there...

but it's warm in here and did chicken noodle soup for lunch...

boston butt roast, potatoes and carrots in the oven...

the smell is wonderful...

I will be starved by the time supper gets here...

it's a very good day to have the oven on...

the snow storm went south of us!

my cousins are getting dumped on in northern Arkansas and southern Missouri!

7 inches and counting...

they're younger than I am...

they can handle it!

they don't have any snow plows down there...

just graders for the country roads...

everything is at a stand still and the kids will probably be out of school the rest of the week...

besides...

I believe in sharing...

hand clasp images...

a very popular image in victorian times...

hands clasping...

and so romantic...

enjoy...

White Wednesday...

our last week has been full of white...

everything outside was covered with ice and then snow...

but a melting happened...

when the sun came out...

and left the trees bare again...

 there is still plenty on the ground...

but hopefully we will melt some more this weekend...

up in the 40s here...

happy white wednesday!

Have a very sweet Valentine's Day!

a step back...

I found some wonderful victorian photos online the other day...

and this room is just wonderful...

I love the landing in the staircase...

with it's 3 windows, a cozy book nook...

love the child reading...

and the carpet runners that don't match...

I wonder what colors were used in the room...

the ceilings look like a pain to clean...

and this little man...

with a furry friend...

and probably his new tricycle and sled from Christmas...

dapper little gentleman...

and the one room school...

with chalk pictures of Santa drawn on the black board...

remember black boards?...

thing of the past...

smart boards have taken their place...

and to all of you down in bed with colds and flu...

hopefully you will be up and feeling better soon...

another vintage photo of an interior...

love the C shaped cut out so you can see the stairs...

probably to allow light in so you didn't fall...

clever, huh?

grandfather clock, umbrella stand and a ladies hat must mean foyer...

the wood work is outstanding...

hopefully no one covered it up later...

did you ever wonder what they used to do without all the modern conveniences?

how did they stay warm?

LOVE...

even cupid has boots and a muff...

remember muffs?

history is one of my favorite things...

I hope you had fun stepping back...

For you to use...

you could use this for a banner maybe...

you could really have some fun with this...

and how about this one?

cute, huh?

print them off and load them in your cards...

I still have a few more left up my sleeve...

so keep  checking back in for more...
