My Purple crazy lady.....

 I love searching the Internet, I find the most beautiful things, images, poems....

often leaves me intrigued, inspired, awestruck.  I love reflecting on the things I find... for example. My most favorite color is PURPLE.

My Love of purple ......

Santa actually came to town on a cow. Who said anything about a sleigh or reindeer.  I love my new teapot.

My friend Annette and her mom are so talented. The crochete plum pudding is a pattern from France.  And the pillow crossstitch is also made from a special fiber from France. Thank you Annette.

Tis the season.

Love my crafting projects,especially at Christmas time.

My Love of Horses

Being raised on a ranch in Half Moon Bay, I remember being around horses as long as I can remember.   Earlier I posted some pictures of horses I love that are my neices.  Here are more.  My best day is a day riding with my kids and neice out at the ranch on the coast of California.   She has a trail riding business and has rescued and rehabilitated most of her horses.  She has a Horse rescue Non Profit called Hoof Beats of America... if anyone wants a horse she adopts them out to good homes.  She is Keeping Remi and Bonnie.

Peek a Boo


I could not possibly post all the pictures I have of over 27 horses here on my blog.   These are just a few that I took on a day at my niece's ranch.

My love of Horses.

I love this picture. Young country girl is roping. I dont know who she is, but she reminded me so much of what my little Grandaughter might look like once she got older.   This picture really has nothing to do with my life other that the fact that I love it. When my oldest daughter was young I gave her riding lessons, she loved it, was good at it and is great with horses.  we've always had a connection to horses.  My neice has 27 of them. while Im at it, I will post more pictures of horses that I really have met.

  

Majectic Gabrielle. He was destined to be dog food but my niece rescued him.   His spirit is huge.  Love him. He was scampering as I was walking up to him with carrots in my hand.  Knew auntie Mary was coming with treats for him. He was fun to ride that day.   

Laugh at me will you?   These horses love carrot treats I tell ya.

A day at the ranch. Rode horses all day on oceanside trials.Two of my kids, Anthony and Carin. 

Very Happy

Greatful for so many things tonite.   I am feeling sentimental as it's my oldest daughters 29th birthday.  I can't believe how time has flown by.  Shes a soldier in the Army, served in Iraq and is currently in the Army National Guard. She has given me two wonderful grandchildren... and not to mention a few grey hairs.   I reflect on this day and can't help but to smile, and remember that little baby girl with blue eyes and a head full of black hair. Turned blond within days and eyes stayed blue.  She was and still is a firecracker.  Happy Birthday to christina. you'll allways be my precious little girl.
