GOBBLE, GOBBLE......

 
 
 
Happy Thanksgiving!
 
Wishing you the best Holiday with family and friends.
 
While so many of us have much to be thankful for,
others have not.
Please include them in your thoughts and prayers.
 
God bless,

IT'S ALL IN THE DETAILS

 
We have survived Sandy and the Northeaster,
which brought us snow.
The weather has turned pleasant again,
at least for the near future.
So, as promised....
here is a meander through my friend Paula's house
from our recent visit.
If there is a gal that can create vignette's,
it is Paula!
She has a wonderful sense of putting things together,
to present "eye candy".
Without further ado, I'll  show you what I saw
and loved.
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
A familiar face......
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
Paula is a pharmacist, so I think this has to be in her house!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 Goodbye for now pretty house.
Until next time, where it will be decorated in all of it's
Christmas glory.
As always, it was fun, fun, fun.....
For me one show down, one more to go.....
and then, I'll get to play in our house....
 
God bless,
Evi

HALLOWEEN - AFTER SANDY


 
 I would like to thank everyone who was so
kind with all their well-wishes for us!!!!
Knowing, that there were so many people out there,
all over the world, who thought and prayed for us,
made it easier to bare.
I thank you with my whole heart!!!
 
We lost power, but because of the generator,
we made it thru alright.
The power came back late last night...
and the land line phone just did.
This morning I have been watching TV,
and I cannot fathom the devastation that I am seeing.
So many people have lost everything, including their life's.
 
Please, please say a prayer for them all!
 
I cannot imagine the heartbreak they must feel.
And with the holidays coming up soon,
it adds to the misery.
 
I know, at some point people's lives will get back to normal,
but this storm and it's aftermath
will be forever with them.
You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
 
God bless you all,
Evi
 
PS. I just looked out of my large living room window.
There is beach sand sticking all over the windows.
I guess, as the crow flies,
we are still too close to the ocean.
This shows how strong the winds were!
 
I just spoke to my friend Laura@52flea.
She would like to let all of her followers know,
that she has NO power, hence no Internet.
They are doing well, but it looks like it is going
to be awhile before power is back in her neighborhood.
She is thinking of you all, and will get back to blogging
as soon as she can.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN !!!

 
 
I am wishing you all a
safe and happy
Halloween!
 
We are expecting a very bad
storm.
It will make things go bump in the night!
Scary things are going to happen.
I could do without it!
 
I wish for ghost and goblins to
make hast and leave as soon as possible.
 
Will post after the MAYHEM.
 
God bless,
Evi

FALL AND HALLOWEEN FUN AT OUR HOUSE

 
My family has come and gone.
It all happened in a blink of an eye.
We spend wonderful hours together,
and I miss them already.
 
Now it is time to get to work again,
preparing for upcoming shows,
and just to catch up on things around the house.
 
I invite you on a tour of our home
decked out for fall and Halloween.
No explanation necessary.
Have fun!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 

 
 
 
 
I will be spending most of
my waking hours in my studio,
but before I start my work,
I will be visiting my friends
Paula, Carole Maynard,
and Deanna this weekend.
I need to recharge and spend
time with them.
Laura, it was wonderful talking
to you today.
Wish you could join us too!!!!
I hope to get good pictures to share
with you.
Antique stores are also on the agenda.
 
I hope you are all having fun with this
spooky season.
 
God bless,
Evi
