Remember my Iris Carnage...they are alive!!!
Giveaway going on at Ramblings from an English Garden. Stop by Barbara's to wish her a Happy 400th post. You will be entered in for a drawing featuring what else but a gorgeous teapot and cup and saucer from DaySpring.
If you have a moment stop by and read her life story. It is a fascinating adventure. She also features many, many English gardens and beautiful shots of the English countryside. I promise you won't be disappointed. She is one special lady with a very special blog.
One other bit of news. I had a birthday today. As some of you might recall my computer kept crashing this year off and on...for the last three weeks I have been making do on Dan's. Well he must have decided enough was enough and bought me my first brand new computer. I have always just used his hand me downs. Now I have a brand new shinny Dell Studio lap top. I have a lot of new programs to learn. This computer specializes in graphics...well we will see if I can do anything with just some of its capabilities. It was a nice little deal from Costco.
The best part of the day came when my husband cooked me a prime rib dinner and Meg baked me a cake, and bless her heart did the dishes too. All the while I just sat down and held baby Avey. It was a very wonderful and blessed day!
Thanks to all my family and friends for all your good wishes and love.
One more thing ... a big shout out for Kris Allen who deserved his win on American Idol!
