Two of the sweetest grand daughters ever!

 I have two of the cutest granddaughters and they are about 15 years apart age wise. 

Lily is my oldest grand daughter. She loves art and graphic novels. We love playing games together like

Yahtzee, Who Wants To Be A Millionaire and of course Uno. We have also worked on a lot of craft 

projects too.  Lily is my daughter's Stephanie's daughter.

Maggie is going to be two in March and is quite a sweetheart. She love stickers and playing puzzles,

reading books and just getting into general mischief. She is my Son's little one.

 Now that I have retired from the library I plan on spending a lot more time with Maggie before she  starts school. 

I'm Back!

 Hello all, just getting back into blogging and have forgot about how a lot of this works. Are there any good blog hops out there? I retired last week from the library and then got immediately sick with an upper respiratory virus. Such fun! I am going to explore and see how many old blogging friends are still out there. I am still into reading, entering contests, estate sales, playing with grand babies and more!

Here are the books I read in 2025!

Easter Bunny Invasion 2022

  We are ready for Easter here and I love decorating for the holidays! These are a few of the area's that I have decorated. We are having fun with the Spring season at the holiday at the library were I work and making a lot of crafts. I will share a flowerpot bunny we are making next week.  I have been reading a lot of books lately and I am two books ahead on my goodreads challenge. 

Hope you and your family have a very Happy Easter Season!

Happy Valentine's Day!

 We had a great Valentine's Day here and I love to decorate for the holiday as well.

I decorated my 3 three tier tray and I liked the way it turned out.

We made this little Valentine's Day Mason Jar together for a library craft.

Most of my decorations are from previous years but I did pick up the little Love sign from Michaels with a coupon.

I am on book 8 of the year with my goodreads.com challenge.

One book ahead of schedule!

I just finished The Last House on the Street by Diane Chamberlain. 

It was a story on the sad side but very interesting and kept you guessing. I will definitely read more by this author.

What have you been reading and what did you do to celebrate Valentine's Day?

Getting ready for the holidays!

 

This is my precious moments tree in my dining room. I have another tree in my great room.

Do you do a themed tree or use collected ornaments? When do you start decorating?

We started the day after Thanksgiving.

I am happy that we will be able to celebrate with family this year. I know we all need to still be

very careful though. I met my goodreads goal for the year of 60 books so I will try to post on that tomorrow. Have you read anything you really enjoyed this year?
