FIRST PICKS OUT OF MY GARDEN...

Forget-me-nots and basket o'gold...in an old whiskey bottle...

GERANIUMS...

I love the color of these "martha washington geraniums" ...can't wait to get them in the ground!

WHO WOULDA KNOWN???

We bought a new matttress set for one of the bedrooms upstairs and carted off the "antique" bed springs to the dump. In the process of pulling the box springs down the stairs I noticed the unique springs in the bottom. I just had to cut them all loose! (Mike was thrilled). I have about 40 springs. I knew I could find a purpose for them! Do you like my vase holder? I guess I'm getting to be a true junker!

THE PILLOW PROJECT...

One down, three to go...I used a vintage scarf for this one...I'm thinking maybe some cool buttons on one...the match is definitely better!

BEAUTIFUL MT. RAINER...

Paradise inn...closed for the winter! Snow up to the guest room windows!A full parking lot!

We stayed overnight at the Longmire Inn...then had a really yummy breakfast...omlettes, scones, and juice and headed up to the mountain...

This is what we saw when we came around the corner...

The parking lot was packed and they had some awesome sledding hills for the kiddos...we thought of Halle, Cole, William, and Andrew...

Here we are just starting out on our snowshoes up the mountain...

It was a long climb....

Getting closer...

A breathtaking view!

Stopping for a snack...

Another beautiful view of the mountain... the sky was so blue!

And another....

And another...without the guy in the glasses!

The end of the afternoon and the fog finally setting in. A perfect day!

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!
