T is for Turtle
T is for Turtle!
Meet Rose
Rose is an Eastern Box turtle and she has been a part of our family for nearly 19 years. The Summer before my oldest daughter turned 5, she became obsessed with turtles and that is all she wanted for her Birthday. We were going to get her a water turtle but then decided on a Box Turtle because they are much easier to care for.
Rose eats turtle pellets but she also enjoys Earth worms, fruits and veggies, her favorites are Blackberries and she loves cottage cheese. During the Winter months, she hangs out in the Sunroom under the plants but once the weather warms up, she will take up residence on the screen porch. Rose loves to have the underside of her neck rubbed and enjoys a soak in a warm bath. And here are some sweet vintage turtles!

S is for Vintage Shoes
We interrupt our regularly scheduled program to bring you this special announcement!
S is for Stinkin, lousy Sinuses!
Mr Bubble (giggle) calls me indestructo because I am never sick. However; for the last nearly three weeks I have been battling sinus problems: thumping ears, throbbing head, stuffed up nose, sore throat and so hoarse I could barely talk, which my co-workers would say was NOT a bad thing, lol! I finally broke down and went to the Doctor today. She looked in my ears and said ooooooh! Then she looked down my throat and up my nose and said "boy, you are really sick!". I looked at her and said "really?". She said every sinus cavity that could be blocked up was and she gave me two prescriptions, one for an antibiotic and one for a nasal spray plus she wants me to take Claritin twice a day and use a saline wash in my nose twice a day. Ugh, I would hope with all that I should feel better pretty quick!
Now back to our regularly scheduled program.
S is for Vintage Shoes!
These sweet little shoes belonged to my Mom. She was born in 1931 and I'm guessing they were probably her first pair of shoes judging from the size.
Wasn't she a cutie! I can't tell if she is wearing the same Shoes but the ones in the picture look lighter in color.
Look at those sweet rosey cheeks and notice those little lace up Shoes. I wonder what ever happened to that baby doll she is holding on to so tightly?
And check out these Shoes!
I don't know about you but when my girls were toddlers I had a hard enough time getting them to sit still while I fastened the velcro straps on their tennis shoes, imagine trying to lace up and tie those things! I love the baggy, thick tights she is wearing! My Mom grew up to be a true Shoe-aholic, I guess she was making up for having to wear all those ugly Shoes as a little girl!

I'm a lucky blogger!
Hi everyone, Happy REDnesday!
I have recently been the lucky recipient of several "give-aways" and I wanted to share with you what I have received!
The first giveaway is from Jill at Bucks County Folk Art. If you have never visited Jill's blog, she makes the most wonderful vintage and folk art inspired creations. She created this really cute ATC card and she even sent me some blanks and extra paper so I could try it myself!
Thank you Jill, I love it and I promise I will try it myself!
The second giveaway I received was from Melissa at Pretty Little Studio. If you love vintage then you have to visit Melissa. I'm not getting paid by Melissa but when I find products and services that are wonderful, I like to spread the word. Here is a link to her BLOG and to her SHOP. Would you look at this haul! Melissa sent me all this sweet paper.
And then there were tags, and flags and cut outs, all of it wonderful quality.
She has a line of bunny paper coming out soon and I can't wait to get my hands on it!
Finally, not a giveaway but I exchanged Valentines with the uber creative Elizabeth at Bluebird Papercrafts! This Valentine was exquistie! Look at the roses on the skirt and the little pearls on the heart!
Elizabeth and I must have been on the same wavelength because the Valentine I sent her also had kittens on it.

My PINK Valentine Tree
Happy PINK Saturday everyone!
The other day I showed you my white Valentine tree, if you missed it, you can see it HERE. Today I want to show you my PINK Valentine tree. I know, I'm a little Valentine crazy this year but seriously, can a girl have too many Valentine trees? This tree sits on an antique dresser in my foyer.
It's decorated with red hearts, white polka dotted red glass balls, stings of white pearls and red beads. A sparkly cupid traced from a vintage cardboard cupid adorns the top.
Please stop by How Sweet the Sound and say Hi to Beverly, our host every week for PINK Saturday! Have a wonderful weekend, filled with Bubbles of JOY! xxoo Nan
