invites you to join her at
To quote Tricia:
"The point of the party is to get better at using the camera
that you have and, of course, to have fun.
Just do a quick post focusing on a few of the best photos
you were able to take and if you want to tell us
about anything you did to your photos that's always good too."

'.....go to work, save lives' Not many of us can say that.
Sounds a pretty good week to me.
I'm one of the 750 and I'm keeping my fingers crossed:0)

YOU are such a gift.
I imagine that everyone
at the hospital just
loves you!! I have been
doing the same "stuff"
questioning and yet, I'll
be in Texas looking to
add more STUFF to my
current STUFF....hmmmm....
Hope THIS week has been
smooth sailing so far : )
xx Suzanne
PS: Glad you made that
doc appointment. Now
keep it.
You are just a busy lady!!! I'll try to join the Friday photo Feature too :)
Sounds like a productive week. Saturday was my sleep in day.
Sounds like a good week to me! Much better than mine!! :-)
Have fun!
Polly
And what lovely photos they are - every single one of them. You go girl!
Anne those photos are dreamy. Love those doors leading to the bedroom. Everything is just gorgeous. I can't wait to learn more from Tricia's party.
So...who's your fave on AI and DWTS? Inquiring minds want to know!
Debbie
P.S. Sounds like a week well spent.
busy, busy week. but it looks like a good kind of busy. especially with sleep in late thursday and getting all the stuff moved to your new home. that is so exciting to me.
Busy, busy, busy girl. Just moving stuff from one house to the other is enough. And of course your house will look every bit as good if not better. It just takes time, especially when you work outside the home. I don't see how you do it. The photos are gorgeous, by the way.
You do get alot accomplished in a week! I wanted to tell you I found a copy of the new Romantic Country with your photo shoot in it....amazing love your work!! I am also drooling over the three french water pitchers above. We watch American Idol as well. I hope you stick to your sleep in day.
Have a wonderful week!

Hi Anne, wow, you had a full week!... when you figure out how you came to own so much stuff, please let me know... I need to do the same thing!... Finally got my copy of Romantic Country... your photos and styling are fantastic!... xoxo Julie Marie
Gorgeous photos, Anne...they REALLY inspire me...and I LOVED the magazine article!

Sounds like a very good week! You sound happy Anne! hugs, Linda
Anne, seeing that little collage of doll shoes in your post just made my heart sing... that brings back so many nice memories for me,as those shoes were gifts from several different friends and I finally found a way to display them. Thank-you for all the lovely photos that you are using of our house, most I am seeing for the first time, what a treat. You sound happy, and like a girl on a mission. Love Linda
Great post! And that you had the opportunity to sit down and reflect the entire week and all that you accomplished makes it that much better. We should all do that.
Love the photos, and WHO THE HECK KNOWS where we get all this stuff...are you sure you didn't accidentally ship some of yours to me cause I sure have a lot! :)
Have another great week! Karen
Whew! I am exhausted just reading it! But somehow I am guessing we just are not the type of people to sit home, watching soap operas and eating bon-bons all day! ;o)
Happy Day to you!
Mary
I thought I worked hard all week but your schedule makes me feel like I was a slacker! Are you looking for a camera strap or a camera strap cover? I'd love to send you one of my strap covers if you would like one. Let me know and I'll send you a picture.
Now, go take a breather!
Your week sounds as busy as mine...I need a break!! But there's no time for that! I love your photos...always! Just makes my day! I did finally get my hands on a copy of the magazine & was bragging on you this past Sunday while at Olde Tyme Marketplace. :-)
Have a great one Anne!

Your pictures make me smile everytime I visit your blog! So pretty!
I am going to Fredricksburg in a couple of weeks and I LOVE the Homestead store. I live in Granbury (SW of Fort Worth) and there is a Homestead store in a litte town about 45 min from here called Hico. It has the similar antiques and goods for sale and the building even looks the same. I wonder if they are the same owners? They put on a wonderful Antique show in May and October. MUCH smaller than Roundtop, but lots of great dealers!
Beautiful photos Anne~ Im so happy you featured my sweet friend Tricia from A Rosy Note too..she is the best!! :) Hugs,Rachel

I had to laugh when I read "ask husband for a foot massage". After all these years aren't they supposed to KNOW we need one every single night??? LOL
Please remember to rest. That is what I am doing today. We were in four cities in four days over the weekend and I am so tired. Your photos are lovely Anne. ♥O
Wowwwwwww...you have had a great week darling........nice to see this post !!! very positive and relaxed......love you......love Ria....xxx...
Hi Anne....as usual your pics are breathtakingly beautiful......sound like you have a lot of that BIG plate of yours. Take care.
Jo
I really love your blog!!it's good for my eyes:)!

You forgot to mention that you are a blessing to your blog fans as well :-)
By the way how easy is it to get a foot massage over there? Maybe your hubby can give my hubby some lessons lol
Smiles,
Dolly
I'm so glad to see that you (someone I admire greatly) watches American Idol and DWTS too! I feel it sort of "takes me away!" And where did we get all this stuff?
Pam
Wow, sounds like you have a lot going on...good thing Thursday was sleep in late day :)
Your photos are so pretty. I love that one of the bed peeking out from behind the curtains and those gorgeous doors. Speaking of photos, thanks for helping me spread the word about my photo party! It's much appreciated :)
~Tricia
I've been reading tour blog for two weeks now and am in love with your photos and your charming stories. I look forward to your emails letting me know you've posted a new blog. Thank you for sharing and being the inspiration for me when I began my blog. Mia

I spent last night in bed with my copy of RC just drooling over your beautiful pics of the Willow Nest photo shoot! Sooo love all the photos! Please tell us sometime about the top pic of this blog post, what room it is in, etc. ~ I collect baby shoes, too, and may need to do my own take on this! LOVE the photo of the tulips and roses in the tiny shakers, too!! It may just be my new fav pic of Ludmil and Linda's cottage!
Thanks for sharing!

if you find a camera strap do tell. i'm always keeping my eye out for cute ones:)
Hi Anne, I know about carting things to the new house. Since it is so small I am carting things to Goodwill, carting things to friends, carting things to my friend's seasonal show in Albany (Oregon) etc. I think we're becoming vagabonds! (Speak for myself, huh)?
Hugs to you,
Sheila
Hi Anne,
What a beautiful post. I really enjoy all of your wonderful photographs. I know that your home is going to be just as lovely as the ones you photograph, I just know it.
hugs
Sissie
you are amazing. i can't wait to see your new home with you in it. you probably can't wait either.
you never said...did he give you the foot massage?
I'm waiting for your post on how to SLOW life down for all of us! The way time passes so quickly really freaks me out. There are always so many things I "want" to do, but all the stuff I "need" to do gets in the way! Hope life will cut you some slack soon!
Take care, Sue
I don't know how you do it all, Anne! lol! I think I'm taking you on vacation with me the next time I go..... lol! Keep your head above the waters, girlie! Oh, and I've gotta tell you that I could look at photos of that bed and bedroom all day long. It's soooo sweet! :)
xoxo laurie
Well all the photo's are beautiful. Love your wire basket, and white chippy things too.

Oh & did the hubby say yes when you asked fr a foot massage? Ya know my hubby does laundry, dishes, takes care of the kids....but foot massages...not really :) That's okay...he's cute enough that I think I will keep him around :) (Besides who would take care of me;)
Nice schedule, and Beautiful photos :)
