She cooked, sewed, and quilted. She LOVED to sew and was always sewing something. Usually she had several different projects going at once. One Christmas she made all thirteen grandchildren quillows. I have no idea how long she spent sewing those things but I love mine.

Isn’t it amazing how books can instantly help you relive how you felt when you read them? I loved, loved, LOVED reading The New Junior Classics set when I was on the farm. My grandparents had a huge library of books. When you were in the middle of nowhere Kansas there wasn’t much to do as a child except read, read, read and although there were a ton of books there weren’t a lot that appealed to a child except for these. I remember pouring over every page and soaking in these stories. I won this set in the auction and I was so glad to get them. I can’t wait to start reading these to my daughter soon.

I loved the Little Golden Books, they were some of my favorite stories growing up.

That’s right we went to New Orleans and we had SO much fun. For a photo junkie like myself, a trip to a 200+ year old city is like letting a five-year old loose in a candy shop. I loved all the historic architectural elements. After editing through some pictures I realized I had a ton that I absolutely love. You’ll be enduring several posts about New Orleans – good thing we weren’t there a whole week.

If there’s one thing I loved more than taking pictures it was the easy laid back attitude and adorable accent that is so prevalent. Combine a beautiful French accent with some casual country feel and you have your typical New Orleans native. OK onto some more pictures:
