Bloomin and the winner is..

Girls...don't you just want to run out into the ditches and beside the road and capture enough wild flowers pictures to fill a calendar of months?!  I need to do it over by my oldest's school.  God is so good he puts beauty by the roadside right near the cup someone threw out their window. :0)

We got some bloomin' going on at the cottage.

Still need to do the back straining job of finishing the weeding and mulching.

Well, we stuck 34 beautiful names in a pot and ...

The Winner of the tassel that was worth the hassel...

I never saw this milestone coming!!

Let's celebrate anyhow.

I'm incredibly grateful for blogland.  I can be ME

and it is A..OK!  I've enjoyed meeting peeps from all over the globe, what a blessing.

Blogland may be all that could have helped me see that being me is all I can be and it is a glorious thing.

The moment I spotted this tassel at TJMaxx and saw that there were 2 of them I immediately thought..1 for you and 1 for me.  It's luscious!  There was a collectible section in the back near the gardening/Spring area and I think it was the 1st time I've seen them there also girls.  It says it is a Demdaco company. 

Same as the Willow Tree collection that my nativity is in.

I embellished a desk top sign/flower and a notepad matchbook with 1 of my favorite words..BLOOM.  I used scrapbooking supplies to do both.  I also got some hot pink and polka dot cupcake liners and there is a tag from a terrific vintage etsy shoppe, a martini nail file and a big fat bunny to eat or feed your beagle. (just kidding)

I think we have ourselves a give~away.

That's it...Buttercup..

Just leave me a comment and I'll put your name in a pot.

Make sure I can figure out how to holler at ya if ya win.  I'll try to make it until Sat and announce Sun.

Bunny foo~foo

A happy Spring morning at Beagle Run Cottage..

Hand wash goodness!

I found this bunny at that resale/home store..Hidden Treasures.

Immediately, my mind raced back to a biscuit bunny... 

I got this idea from Christi at A Southern Life.

I improvised using small and grand biscuit cans and also ripped and formed the ears.  The hearts cooked more like rocks for the bunnies to hide under or hurl at Beagles.  lol

Ok, Ok..my bunny butts are not as cute as hers turned out.

I even had to toothpick a few tails in place...my bad.

 

Strawberry goodness!

Yumm~O!!

We were biscuit eatin' fools on this a.m.

I did not let Jack Beagle at any of our bunnies.  But, there were bunnies harmed in the shootin' pic session and eatin' of our breakfast.  lol!!

Girls, I'm so excited...almost 100 followers..give~away in works.
