Here's the Sn-irt on me!!!

 

In case you wanna know Snirt is snow mixed with dirt!! LOL

It was about a week n half ago that I saw my first Robin!! OMG!! I had to get my camera!!! I get so excited when I see one!! Something I always shared with my Mom!! We would call each other as soon as we saw one!! I miss that.

 

 

This is a pic of my two handsome step sons. This is at Ryan's going away party a few weeks ago. He is on the right. Nick is on the left. Ryan left us on March 1st for Africa for one year. He is a Navel Reservist and this is his first assignment away from home. We are so proud of him!! His wife Christine is a rock star and Caylee knows daddy will be home by her 5th birthday!! Sim was in the Navy for 12 years so his family knows how to rally together at a time like this. Please keep Ryan and all of our servicemen in your prayers!!!

 

 

 Ok I have had this ideal rolling around in my head for awhile!! So I put it together. A pig head on a old rusty hammer!! "HAMM -er- Head" What do you think? I may try a more cutesier head next time. Although I think everything I make no matter what I try to do ends up coming out in my own style somehow!! LOL that being what people call Fran. Style!!! LOL

 

 

Ok here is another new gig!! This is my try on a poodle!! I grew up with a poodle dog. Pepie was a white show dog with papers!! We didn't show him but could have!! My favorite memory was when my Mom would color die Pepie for the holidays!! Green for St. Patrick's Day and Pink for Easter and Red for Christmas!! OMG!! he was the coolest!! I named this one "RAGGZ" cuz she went from rich to Raggz cuz I kinda grubbied her up a bit!! and that pom pom on her tail is from my slipper sock that came off!! I up cycled it and it is kinda a bit grubby. It was hard to shoot "RAGGZ" so I did different angles!! LOL Do you think somebody has had a lot of winter? But I look at it this way I am kicking out the gigs and sewing!! LOL

 

I want to show my livingroom soon but it has been so darn cold I haven't been hanging out in there. Stayin in our room with the heater on!! LOL

Tell me what cha think of my new gigs!! I am curious if I should make some more of the pigs or not? Just be honest with me I can take it!!

 

Keep on Keepin on!!

Peace out!!

XOXO Love Fran.



Nest Sweet Nest!!

This is a robins nest out in my back yard. You would not believe where they built their home!!! We had three big trees cut down in our backyard a few weeks ago. We are building a raised garden bed and we have not had time to put things back or in new places yet. I pulled down one of their nest from the kids old fort and they sure were upset. Then the next thing we know everytime we went out the back door, there was a robin flying. This is on my potting table and the rusty container is an old paint can!! I mean very rusty!! The funny thing is I rusted that paint can out on a dirt road in the winter time. They had started to rust and just needed some help! LOL I have a couple of them! Sim and I would go out there every so often so I could turn them!! This is one of the most rusty ones!! LOL Gotta love it though!!

Here are a few more of the pictures! Isn't Gods world so beautiful and amazing!!!

XO Fran.
