Thoughts and Things - This week ... Live, Laugh, Love & more Love


Live, Laugh, Love ...  If you know me or have been visiting my blog you surely know this is one of my favorite phrases.  OK, it's my all time favorite!  Live every moment, Laugh everyday, Love beyond words, are an extension of the phrase and are such wonderful words to live by.  

My Daughters have given me gifts in honor of my love of these phrases.  I have several others that I have collected, and although I don't have them all on display in my home at once, I do enjoy having at the very least, one of them out and visible most of the time. 



I was given this beauty recently by my youngest daughter, she had picked it up at a re-sell sale hosted by her place of employment.  It's in perfect condition, it's perfectly me, and knowing it is a "trash-to-treasure" item so to speak, it just makes me treasure it all the more!  I do appreciate a good bargain, especially when it's a re-use, re-cycle, or re-love kind of item.  So glad she thought of me when she saw this beautiful piece and grabbed it up for me!  I love it! 



Speaking of Love...



She said YES!!! ...They're Engaged! 

I'm so happy for my Daughter and her Fiancé.




He popped the question while they were enjoying a birthday gift together that he'd given her ... a Caribbean cruise to St Thomas and the Virgin Islands. 


Happy tears of joy!


Wedding bells, I hear wedding bells!...
