Hi my friends....Spend the Fourth Of July with my favorite person in the world... my brother Steven. ( my baby brother) As far back as I remember growing up, my little brother has always worked so hard & has had lots of great friends around him...and he still does... I remember the little skinny kid waking up at the crack of dawn to deliver his local newspaper route, oh how did he ever survive living with me & my mom... let me tell you life was not easy back then... well he turned out to be quite the man. I am so proud of the life he has created... a wonderful life filled with lots of love, a beautiful wife & baby, great friends, an spectacular Farm/home... I love you.. Thank you for being truly the best brother to me & a great uncle!!!!!
xooxo Your big sister & your biggest fan!!! I wanted to share a part of what matter most in my life... my family....
me & my little brother who is now my BIG brother
Steven, my son Dante, my daughter Lilly (Olivia), my mom Edie... Happy Fourth!!!
Steven's beautiful wife & my precious nephew Dylan's mom... Dr. White/Aunt Jean

loved his shoes..he didn't quite understand why I was taking so many pictures.. I told him I have a blog...he looked at me like I was from another planet.
God bless this beautiful child!!!

mozzarella marinated on a skewer... delicious..
Their back porch with the prettiest setting wraps around half the house... I would love to take a long nap here one day or two...

I had a great wander through your blog today following your comment back to here. A lady after my own heart. Loving your son, beautiful things, making, life, the beach. Don't you just love it when you read someone's blog that just reeks of character and integrity. Especially your best treasures, your son and your heart. How neat to have your mum over the road. Primo.
O.K. I have been a bad blogger not uploading my pictures for etsy BUT I have finally grouted my mosaic wall that took me months of hand cutting thousands of dishes...O.K. I know I am a little loony but this is something I wanted to do for a long time and am soooo happy it is done... and so are my kids... I was going to call it Down & Grout In Ocala, but just decided to call it My Mosaic kitchen wall..inspired by my love of Birds, roses, butterflies & romantic cottage style Take a peek.. & I will get my etsy treasures posted. xooxoluara
One of my favorite treasures.. My grandmothers rose dishes...and my first piece done fiveteen years ago.. It survived my house fire.
oops look like I have some grout to clean off..
I hand wrote that last night it sounded right to me. yea relax after this was done ..
O.K. so I love birds nests... Birds nest soup anyone? Enjoy, recycle, relax & have a blessed weekend to all xooxxo mosaic momma
