A Friend Indeed...


Meeting blog friends is always a pleasure...
Meeting someone like Suzanne is that and so much more.

{ the always gorgeous Suzanne in Homestead, Fredericksburg, Texas }

Pop on over to Privet and Holly to read my beautiful friend Suzanne's
account of our wonderful day spent together.

My own version is slow in coming (  it IS coming! ), 
but I don't think I'll be able to improve on hers one bit.

Happy Weekend!

just chillin', etc...




That's what my boy Havok is doing right here.
Just chillin'.

I got a new camera lens last week
( thank you Romantic Country and Harris Publications for financing it! ),
and Havok is one of my favorite subjects 
to test out new camera equipment.

If it properly captures the softness of his fur and
the blue of those eyes, then it's a keeper.
Whaddaya think?

I have SO much to post about and share,
including a couple of fun posts about my wonderful day
shared with Suzanne of Privet and Holly this past week.

But today?
Just chillin'.

It was a crazy busy Easter weekend, and not only is there
still a mountain of photos to edit,
but a mountain of laundry as well.

So before I tackle what needs doin' today,
I'm taking a cue from Havok.

How about you?
How was your weekend?
And do ever feel like I do today, just want to chunk all your
responsibilities and just sun yourself in the yard like my pooch?  ;-)

Be back soon!

Holy Week

Happy Holy Week!

I'll be taking a few days off 
to properly give the season its due.

Wishing each and every one of you 
a very blessed Easter!




P.S.
If you pray, please pray for rain here in Texas.
We are literally going up in flames down here.

A Fun Day


I have a WONDERFUL day planned,
and I wish you could all come along!

Firstly, another fabulous trip to
Homestead
is on the agenda...








After all, I'll be showing this gal around my new hometown!

I'm thinking lunch at a German brew pub,
a trip by our new farmhouse,
a swing by a local herb farm
maybe a trip to Luckenbach,
and for sure  a little mischief.

The forecast is partly cloudy
with a
greater than 100% chance of FUN!

Hope your day is great, too!

It's Time




There were over 800 entries ( WOW! ),
and I want to thank each and every person that
commented, followed, or posted about it...


but the time has come to pick a winner
of my 
SPRING ROMANCE GIVEAWAY...


Up for grabs:
The Summer issue of  Romantic Country magazine
with my Willow Nest photo feature
and

a personally autographed copy of
signed by Fifi O'Neill herself
 
so....
I did the random schmandom thing, 
and the lucky winner is...

Denise of  

Congrats, Denise!

Since I was such a geek and bought out entire newsstands,
I may be doing another magazine related giveaway
in the days ahead, so please check back.

 In other news, I finally decided on a camera strap...


It's called the Sofia Olive, and although I purchased it
at a camera shop, you can browse their selection HERE.

I bought it because it looks like my Homestead couch!


 Don't you think?

And guess what else?

Look who I get to meet next week?


The gorgeous and talented Suzanne of Privet and Holly!

She and her sweet mom will be making a swing through
Fredericksburg, Texas, so I hope to be able to show them all the sights.

***

Finally, I'm not a numbers watcher at all, but I just noticed that the odometer
just turned over to 2K...
thank you and welcome to all my new followers,
and to my faithful friends from way back, thanks for sticking with me!

I know that these giveaways always create a bump in the numbers,
but I really hope that y'all will stick around for the regular day-to-day
here on this blog.
I count myself as so fortunate to have even one of you
deeming me worthy of following, so know that you are very much appreciated!

I hope you all have an amazing weekend!
