Pink Saturday! Night & Day

 Happy Pink Saturday Everyone!
Not only is this Pink Saturday but it is also a Miracle Makeover Blog Party! Please visit Kelee  at the 
Katillac Shack and watch this inspiring video about Colette's story.  Also stop by How Sweet the Sound and say Hi to Miss Beverly our Host and Sherry at Country Wings in Phoenix.  And here's the great part, $1.00 will be donated for each and every comment!

Before I get to my post, last week as Part of PINK Saturday I visited Jacqueline at Purple Chocolat Home. She always shares amazing pictures, wonderful tablescapes and the most wicked recipes! Stop by and see Jacqueline, I know you will be glad you did! 

My girls are so different it's hard to believe they came from the same gene pool. One is fair skinned, with blue eyes and strawberry Blond hair. The other daughter has dark hair, dark eyes and is dark complected. And their personalities are totally different as well. I always say they are as different as Night and Day. One day I was in a gift shop and noticed these two figurines. I was immediately drawn to them because they reminded me of  my own two girls.



Then I looked closer and noticed the fair one was named Day and the darker one Night. I knew right then and there I  had to have these! But it gets even better! I turned the figures around and found these beautiful, inspiring verses.

I love these figurines and the verses,

and... 


I love my girls!

  3. Oh NanE Sweetie...
    What a beautiful share this evening. I truly love this post. Thank you for participating in our Miracle Weekend Makeover for Colette. She is such a sweet friend and I am so happy to be playing a part in it all.

    I love your two dolls. They are opposites aren't they? I only have one daughter and she has the dark features so I would be drawn to the night. They are just beautiful sweet friend, just beautiful.

    Please stop by my blog too and pass the word along. $1.00 for each comment left at Country Wings in Phoenix also, Kelee included my blog. I shared Colette's photos of her journey along the way with this disease called cancer. Please stop by and read and be inspired. I so love it when you come by for a visit.

    Many hugs and much love sweetie...Sherry
