An Awesome View of Life

May this little girl child... never doubt how much she is loved. We got to have lunch with this dolly today (and her mama and daddy).  She is here most days during the week but its always a treat to have her here on a weekend day.   I decided she needed to have her very own sized apron so whipped this up this morning for her.  Now we need to find something to cook.   She decided she should wear Grammy's shoes over her own shoes.  And she was too busy messing with Grammy's FitBit to look up and say "cheese".   Love this little girl child to pieces.

Brass Bits Another piece of our bedroom project completed.  One more construction-like project left and then the decorating touches.   And my title made me laugh hysterically.  Not sure why but it did.  (:

Dressed for Success! Words to live by.  Our outward appearance greatly affects how others perceive us.  It also affects how we feel.  Since I work out of my home and very rarely meet with clients I can find myself wearing the same shirt for an entire week.  I may even go to the store wearing this same shirt with who knows what on it.  Ugh! My goals since vacation revolve around being successful.  I've dressed better this week than I have in the past few months.  But yesterday I spent so much time sitting at my sewing machine and the jammies were much more comfortable.  I was too lazy to change into a top that would match.  Don't you love the stripes with the geometric design?   It was a very successful day so apparently I was dressed for success!  ha! This is October 23rd's photo.

  Alien Visitor This creature was on our window this evening.  I couldn't focus on the grasshopper so had my daughter hold a paper on the inside of the window.  I really like the professional touch of the pink paperclip.  ha!   However, the sunset reflection is pretty cool. The photo below is just a bit different angle.  You know, just in case you weren't totally freaked out about the first one. (:  

My Little Buttercup Doesn't that title just make you think of Martin Short in The Three Amigos?  ha!   I don't even think this is a buttercup but that's what came to mind for a title.   This is October 21st photo.

Morning Surf We had a beautiful sunrise, the wind was up and so was the surf.  It was a breathtaking morning on the beach. This is October 20th's photo.

Dragon Wings For some reason when the kites are on the ground they remind me of dragon wings.  This is October 19th's photo.

Red, White and Blue Love this little sailboat. I'm extending my vacation days here on my blog to include a few extra favorites. (: This is October 18th's photo.

Silver Sunrise This was one of our last days on the beach.  Each sunrise gave us something new.  The sunrise was spectacular but the surf just completes the moment. Earlier in the week I started to play around with the manual settings on my camera and found a whole new world out there.  I'm not sure I will remember what I did but I'll keep working on it. This is October 17th's photo.

From Above... These photos are the view from our 5th floor balcony.  There is nothing better than this. This is October 16th's photo.

Bits and Pieces This is my favorite thing on the beach.  Oh and flat rocks.  I bring those home by the bag full.  ha! This is October 15th's photo.

Happy Place Do I need to say more?  This is the only way to vacation.  (: This is October 14th's photo.

Footprints One evening I was standing on our balcony looking at all of the footprints in the sand.  I realized that our footprints were there as well.  I wondered how many days it would be before ours were gone and replaced by someone else.  Then I was sad.  (: This is October 13th's photo.

Perfect Two of the things I love about Pompano Beach.  I have had a hard time being back from vacation this year.  This place recharges and centers me.  The lighthouse is so beautiful and add the kiting all is perfect. This is October 12th's photo.

Before Sunrise This is one of my favorite photos of the week.  This was taken just before sunrise while the lighthouse was still lit.  I can smell the morning in this photo. This is October 11th's photo.

My Pot of Gold This is the best place to vacation.  It rained the first afternoon we were there but this rainbow was the aftermath.   Three beach weddings were delayed because of the rain this afternoon but all turned out beautiful. This is October 10th's photo.

Morning has broken. This is September 30th's photo.
