Just about 100 followers-Thank you.

Enchantment to you all

This is truly the very medicine I need.I couldn't stand it, I just wanted to kiss that baby on the cheeks all night. He looks so much like His Mom did as a baby ,what a flash back to the best years of my life.We baby sat  while His parents went to a Halloween party.Why I really posted was to say that I'm almost to 100 followers.Thank you all to who  reads anything I say.It's so sweet of any of you to follow me, my ramblings about my  my life , dreams and as Sponge Bob says "My IMAGINATION."Paul and I love Sponge Bob by the way.I'm thinking about having a giveaway or a party to celebrate 100 fun followers.Thanks again every one of you.

I'm moving on already!

I already wished everyone  a Happy Halloween.I know, Halloween  is still a few days away  and yes I'll visit my Grandchildren .It will be just like when my kids were little.We will laugh,get in costumes, have chili and donuts ect..the moon will be bright, my girls will walk the kids around the neighborhood; while we wait eating our donuts and one of the teenagers will pass the candy out.......But I am ready to move on.Let me say Happy Thanksgiving ! Ever since I was a young Mother I have gotten so excited starting in the middle of Sept.,when the four girls would go back to school.Oh the quiet time,chill in the air and all my home cooking began.Soon it was Halloween then Thanksgiving  with such a thankful heart to my Lord. Family and the feast.You know where I'm going ?Yes of course,I'm  getting ready for Christmas.I have gifts to buy, new decor for the house to think about.What colors this year, what food this year,what arts and crafts....I'll hold myself back from talking about it for your sake.I'm getting very busy indeed  heehee.

Happy Halloween 2011!

Happy Halloween! Party Time ! 

I've been invited with friends to attend several  parties,but I have forgotten where they are in blogland.Does this happen to others? I  Forget to save the invite on my calender,so where are all those parties?I'm going to try to find them, so out  of Coffeeberry Cottage I go again looking for those parties. 

 Wondrous  places  they were ,that's all I remember.

I know they are fun.....still looking.....

Everyone  will be friendly....bloggies are that way.

 Adventuresome and full of laughs.

Will they be scary? I hope not.....

OH-OH  dark and getting dangerous!

Oh No, creeping  and crawling  in the moonlight.....

EEKS!

We stay close together-Hope that's not Willard ,you know.At last we hear laughter and see shimmering lights that make us feel lighter.

Oooooo,I knew these parties would uplift me.

I think I found my happy place.

Yes-that's for sure

Sparking lights, balloons and streamers.

Tasty cute treats with yummy smells of the season.

Were getting near,lets peek...can you see it?

Please ,lets go in together-lets head toward the light :)

By,David Gulino in the early sixties-His Halloween song.Dad's 81 now and still writes songs and poems.Dad says I have it a little bit wrong but that is how I remember it.

I'm back!

Just a little note to say I'm back.My computer has been in the shop for two weeks.It seemed like a month.Thanks to all who left comments while I was away.Thank you all for not deleting me from your friend list.I will post later today.I missed this new strange but wonderful world of blogging and FB friends so much.My husband and I cracked up about how bored we were without our computer.So strange, most of our life we could never imagine how we use it now.I'll post later-Denise

Fall Art Journals-paper paper paper, scissors,colored pencils, glue and FUN

Autumn pages-just put in a stand up plastic frame.Scattered joy falling down on me.The two tags were a gift from our friend Jackie.

 Paint or paper crafts-I love both.So the most fun ,easy and most economical way to get ready for any holiday is to display my craft by framing.My art journals by the tons are my best bet.

Take a peek through My Coffeeberry window... The art studio is jumping.

John Slobodnik(My fav.)

There goes Gram,she's got the fever!

Pop is hot...

Paint flying everywhere....

Go Gram Cracker!

She throws that shimmering glitter in the air.

Popsicle can't do without His ol' dog Sydney.

Far off lands they travel to.........

 If you peek through the window of coffeeberry cottage in the cool  Autumn evening you will see Gram Crackers and Popsicle sitting by the fire wrapped up in their blankets.Pops will be whittling and Grams will be needle crafting. Eventually, with grins and winks they will bring out their paints and away they will go into their  IMAGINATIONS.Dreaming of  far off lands  that don't really exist, while paints are splattering in brilliant colors  and the fire is crackling in the slight  draft.
