It is BBTB2 Blog Hop starting today~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Summer is over for the Norman family. My dd is starting school today. She is pretty nervous because she is a big Third grader. Geez! I will miss her.  She was so very helpful this Summer with her little brother and they played very well together.  He starts Kindergarten next Fall so when that happens I will be all tears. (sigh)  We are going to have some fun this week though because it is BBTB2 blog Hop, so grab a beverage and sit back and enjoy all of the inspiration you all are about to feast those eyes on.  Penny Shuberg is our host this week and I happen to think she is extra special because she is my momma.  It is Fun to be able to share this wonderful hobby with my mom.  She picked the Apron off of the Kitchen cart.  My, My, this cart is loaded with Yummys.  If you can't see my project that well please click on it, as I used a pretty big frame I got from good old Wally World.  I thought this apron was so fun to make as I Heart baking.  Can you smell those chocolate chip cookies getting ready to come out of my oven? Yep! that would be me baking away. HA...Anyhow! all you have to do is leave me a comment  to be entered into my drawing for my Blog candy below.  I will pick a winner Saturday the 4th of September...Your next stop is the sweet Donna, so hop on over and see what she has made. Big Hugs...

It is hard to imagine that it has been three months since he died. This is a picture of my dad and I when I was 21 years old at my cousins B-day party. God has you in his arms, but I have you in my heart..Happy Birthday Daddy...Love u..

Eek..My Little boy who loves his Momma so much is growing to be such a big boy. This child of mine makes me very happy with his love for anything that has wheels. I am glad he is growing, but it makes me sad because I love my kids being so little. He is a very sweet and kind boy who will always be my baby~~~~~~~~~~ Happy Birthday Aiden.
