A Very Special Day!!!

Yesterday was my Dad's 77th Birthday.  The family got together to have lunch at one of my Dad's favorite restaurants for lunch. Below is a quick video of my OOTD for the gathering.




 We all had such a lovely time at the luncheon and after, Jimi and I went to my Parents house for a cocktail.  Once again, it was such a great time!! Jimi and I love spending time with my Parents...they are so inspiring to be around for so many reasons!!!!

Dad sent us home with a few treasures....several portraits in the most beautiful frames of me when I was a little girl, interesting books and the best treasure of all...an oil painting of my Aunt in her 20's as she dances with the Metropolitan Opera in New York.  Oh my gosh!!!! I am so honored to have this oil painting. It is truly a vintage piece as it is over 60 years old!!!!

I am really looking forward to hanging it on my photo gallery wall..of which incidentally, you can see in the video.

Hope you are having a beautiful day and I will see you soon with a Tutorial for Tuesday!

Much Love,

Just Beautiful

I was able to get together with my Dad this week for lunch. Our schedules are always so very busy and it seems that so much time passes in between our get togethers. I brought my daughter Nicole with me too.
She loves seeing her Poppa! We shared a lovely time having lunch in a cozy Irish Pub and then took a walk along the avenue in his town. While we were walking, I snapped the picture of the Sunflower above. Sun Flowers are so amazing to me. I love how tall they grow and even love to see the bud as it is forming. There is something very beautiful to me about Sunflowers. Notice the bee in the picture. I am grateful to the bee's for how they pollinate and keep nature in motion. Yes, it was a lovely time! It is always Just Beautiful getting together with my Dad!

Just a little note...I have been working on a few treasures for my shoppe lately. One is a Yellow Pill Box Hat and the other, a Tattoo Necklace. I am working on getting a few good pics of the hat but here is a sneek peek of the Tat Necklace.
Both will be in the shoppe soon.

Much Love,
