I was just looking at some of my pictures and came across the ones of this blue vintage prom dress.

It's just the sweetest prom dress, ever! I love it! I wonder about the girl who wore it to the prom...was she a blonde, brunette or redhead??? What kind of flowers did her date give her.... & what did he look like???? Oh, and of course I wonder how she wore her hair!! What kind of shoes did she wear & did she carry a little evening purse??? These are just some of the questions I have in my mind when I look at this gorgeous dress! I would love to see a picture of her all decked out!!

"LADIES IN WAITING"

I was blown away by all the dress forms that Dillard's was selling! The prices were unbelievable! I would have bought more but my car wouldn't hold anymore! I hope to start decorating them soon so stay tuned for pictures!

Some of my favorite pictures of Madison!

She has always been a beautiful child. She has the most beautiful brown eyes and her smile is nothing compared to her laughter. Madison is my 2nd Granddaughter. I love her so much!! Each of my grandchildren are sweet treasures to me. There is nothing I wouldn't do for any one of them. I thought I would post favorite pictures of each of them and decided to start with Madison. I have thousands of pictures of her! I got my Canon Digital Eos in 2004 so she was one of my 1st models. She still poses when she sees my camera.

Madison at 4 years old!!

This is Madison when she was 4 years old. These were taken on March 7, 2004. She just turned 10 on Jan. 12th, this year. This is why I always tell young mothers to enjoy their babies each and every moment. It seems like yesterday that she wanted to dress up all frilly and frou-frou! She occasionally will dress-up here at Mimi's but she would not dare be seen in public with a boa around her neck much less a tu-tu or wings!! She is still as adorable but I miss this babyish side of her!!

I NEED SOME INSPIRATION!!!

I am having one of those weeks!! I was sick last week, got a shot, felt better, babysat 3 of my granddaughters for a couple of days and started feeling sick again! My poor hubby got sick the same day I did and he is still feeling bad. I don't really feel that bad now, I just feel blah!!! I don't feel bad enough to be in the bed but I don't feel well enough to do anything. Heaven only knows how much I have to do...paint the laundry room, touch up walls in other rooms, dust, work in the yard, go to the antique shops and rearrange my booths!!! It's also cloudy and cool here which adds to my blah feeling. I have been searching the web for inspiration but have found nothing that appeals to me right now. Help me!!!
