Vintage Mason Jar and Birthday Flowers

July 16, 2014 By Meegan 1 Comment

Happy Wednesday my friends!  I am really happy to be here with you today.  It’s an exciting time for our family. We are having our family reunion this coming weekend.  The plans are filled with food, water, games, family time, food, family pictures, sand, food, and lots of hugs and kisses from the grand babies, oh!  Did I mention food?

I had a wonderful birthday last weekend.  I was spoiled by my hubby, friends and kids. I received these gorgeous flowers as a gift.  I used my floral tips, but once they started wilting, I still want to keep some around.

I like using a Vintage Mason Jar and Birthday Flowers to continue the celebration in our living room.

If Grandpa Was a Blogger

January 2, 2013 By Meegan 21 Comments

What, you are asking?? If Grandpa was a blogger??  What kind of title is that??

Well, the other day Hubby and I went antiquing.  We walked around for hours.  While walking around I realized I had so many of the same things that are being sold at antique stores.  It was fun, looking at the prices, and enjoying other people’s things.

Once I got home, I wanted to set out some of the things that I now own from my grandparents.  As I was putting my coffee table together for my January decor, I thought, “If Grandpa was a blogger”, his desk might look something like this:

If grandpa was a blogger

He would need a phone close by so he could text and share on Instagram…Oh wait!

If Grandpa was a blogger

Pin It

Grandpa would need his digital watch to keep track of time, his contacts so he could see the computer screen, look up his spelling on spell check, and his poetry book to look for ideas.  Uh oh!!!

If Grandpa was a blogger

Pin It

Grandpa would need a computer so he could send the html to his blog site, and email his sponsors.  While browsing through Twitter and Facebook  he could smoke his pipe…Um, no….

If Grandpa was a blogger

Pin It

Grandpa would need a oscillating fan to stay cool.  He would also need a digital camera to be able to have pictures on his blog.

If Grandpa was a blogger

Pin It

Yep, that is what he would need if Grandpa was a blogger…

If Grandpa was a blogger

These items were all my Grandpa’s except for the phone and the poetry book.  I bought the phone at PB because my Grandparents had a phone just like it in their kitchen, so I wanted one to remind me of them.  The poetry book is actually Hubby’s Grandpa’s while he was “courting” Grandma. (Cute, huh?)

I am so happy you came by today!!  It is a beautiful way to start a new year.  I am excited about the new year and all it holds in store for us.  My hope is that you feel the same.
