I just wanted all my friends to know that I will be gone for the next 11 days. Hubby and I have been blessed with time off work so we are heading to Florida to visit his parents for Easter. Please remember us in your prayers that we be blessed with safe traveling mercies and that the weather is just perfect. We have had our share of snow and we are in need of some nice warm and relaxing sunshine.
We will be staying at Disney for a couple of days while in Florida and hopefully I will have some time to scope out some prim shops providing there are any. I am so excited I can hardly wait to get there.
I'm sure I will have wonderful things to post about when I return so please remember to check back later in the month. In closing, I want to say "Thank You" to Trena for the wonderful doll and extra goodies I won from her giveaway last week. I will post more on that and show you all my wonderful things I received when I get back.
Happy Easter to All and may you have a wonderful day with your friends and family.
Remember....... Christ is Alive!

Oh Happy Day!!
I am delighted to show you some things I won from a recent giveaway. I participated in Teresa's giveaway over at Willow Bend Prims and looky looky what I won! It was almost like TJ knew me personally and picked the exact things I would like.
This plate has one of my most favorite scriptures verses on it from Joshua 2:15. In case you can't read it, it says "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." My family is trying our best to do just that. The star holder came with the plate.
This crock is my next favorite thing. I almost bought myself one the last time I was at one of my prim stores but I put it back. Can you say "amazing." The candle will go on a shelf on my cupboard in my living room. The pantry cake will make its home along the other two I have on my stove board in the kitchen. I think I have the perfect candle for the berry wreath too.
The black peg rack will go perfectly in my kitchen to ensure that I will be able to locate my keys more easily in the morning before I have to head out to work. I'm always loosing them but now I won't have any more excuse for not being able to find them. The prim little bag will be holding my cell phone. Maybe I will be able to answer my phone calls in a more timely manner since I should be able to find it easily. The spool will be placed along with two other ones I have collected over time. I adore the crow pick. I have the perfect planter to place it in too.
I hope you like my goodies as much as I do. I want to thank TJ again for being so generous and sweet in her giveaway.
Blessings friends,

A Few Of My Favorite Pieces
Good morning everyone. As I was looking around my home, I realized I have several pieces with one common denominator. They are all mustard colored. Besides black, mustard is my favorite color for furniture. Now you will have to excuse the poor quality of the pictures. I took them with my phone. These pictures kind of make my pieces look sick and green but I think we all know what color mustard is so just squint a little when looking at them.
Okay, I guess I will have to do this backwards because I can't move this one stubborn picture to where I want it to go. So in reverse....
This piece which you can see is not mustard in color has been in storage since December and it is just waiting for me to bring it to my home when the shop opens back up next month. All of the goodies on the shelf are not mine although I wish I had a few of them. I'm hoping the shelf is wide enough to set a small television on. If so, this piece will be going in my living room.
These next 4 pieces are from Country Wicks in Lisbon, Ohio. All of the furniture in this store is made by a local crafter. You should see the finish he puts on his pieces. Very talented I must say. He has even refurbished a few pieces for the shop and you would think they were newly built pieces until you realize you have seen the outdated piece somewhere before.
This birdhouse was bought for me for my birthday one year by my daughter. She is so good to me. I'm sure daddy had to pay for it though. He is good to me too!
This is my crock/ jug rack. As you can see I only have two pieces on it but when I find more, the glass pieces on the bottom will go and be replaced.
This cupboard was one of the first pieces I bought. I just love it.
Next is my most favorite piece I have purchased so far. It fits perfectly in my kitchen. One day I am going to redo the kitchen and get rid of all the red, green and the apples. It will be mustard, black and burgundy and I will have hardwood floors and granite counter tops. I plan to decorate with roosters. I so wish it was in our budget to do it now but I suppose it won't kill me to wait a little longer.
These next two pieces came from the Cricket Box in Columbiana, Ohio. The owners of this shop build all their furniture that they sell. They will build to your specifications and will paint the pieces any color you want. I could go crazy in that store. Such quality and craftsmanship. The prices are wonderful as well. I have my eye on several other pieces in their shop but they too will have to wait just like my kitchen redo.
Don't you love how this table resembles a door. I think it is very cool. I removed some of my accessories so you could see the panels a little better.
Thanks for stopping by today and looking at some of my favorites. It is supposed to get up into the 60's today and I am so hoping it does. Spring can't get her soon enough to suite me!!!
Hugs to everyone,
~AMY~
