I have two more Easter pretties to show you. They each have a bit of Blue. This dinner bell has a Blue ribbon and a Blue oval background. It is usually rung by Jenna, a granddaughter of ours. I don't know why, but ever since she was a little bit, she has loved to be the one to ring the bell when it's time for the family to sit around the table to eat.



This basket contains inedible items. There's a faux chocolate bunny and pastel ceramic eggs. Two of the eggs are Blue, the bow is Blue, and the basket is lined with Blue netting. You can see a picture of my daughter's family in the background to the right, which reminds me . . .



Today is her birthday! Here she, on the left, in a photo taken this past January. On the right is Brittany, her niece, our granddaughter. Of course, there's Blue on both of them.



♬ Happy Birthday, Dear Debi ♪

Happy Blue Monday!

Blue Monday - Here Comes Easter!

Welcome! It's Blue Monday! For instructions, please click here.

I'm repeating this suggestion because last Monday several people still put defective links in.

It's a good idea to check your link to be certain that it's loaded correctly. When typing in your http address, computers sometime "help" by filling it in for you. In some cases, that may mean that you have just loaded in your LAST link and not the one you would wish. Oops!

My house is prettier because of Blogland. I see all of you decorating for the different seasons, and I've copied some of your ideas. I do have fun with it. Here's the entry table right off of my front door. I'll admit that in this picture it looks a bit plain, but it does contain Blue. Perhaps you can suggest ways to improve. Should I tie a Blue bow on the top of the apothecary jar?




Inside the apothecary jar, I've placed white and Blue crystals, with a lamb on top. I took him out so you could see him better. He has a Blue bow around his neck and Blue feet. I've placed a Blue marble egg on a stand and a crystal candy dish with pastel M&Ms. Of course, some of them are Blue. My family especially enjoys the candy dish.




Here's the other side of the table. Next to the lamp and figurines, I've place a lacy Blue ceramic egg.




I really like ceramic objects that appear lacy. I always have. Here's a close-up of the top. It even has a Blue flower! I bought it several years ago at the $ store. Yep, it only cost one dollar!



Are you decorating for Easter?

Like many folks, we have our computer, television, and telephone bundled and serviced by a local company known as Bright House. This past week, our cable box became sick, so we called in Mr. Fix-it, the repairman. Guess what? His van is painted Blue! And just look at that Florida Blue sky.




Here's a shot of Mr. Fix-it's Blue uniform (hat, shirt, pants).




Mr. Fix-it was kind enough to pose for Blue Monday. Unfortunately, the photo is quite blurry, but you can still see his Blues. This unfocused picture teaches us a lesson that we should always take more than one shot.

Our first-born grandchild is engaged! Lauren, seen here with her fiance, Christian, is planning a June wedding. What fun! Here's a picture of the happy couple. Lauren is wearing a Blue dress; it's Christian's favorite color.



They've created an interesting way for folks to "save the date"--a video. Here's two extracts from that video. Notice, please, the Blue yarn and Blue sky.

Blue Monday - Blue Tree House

Welcome! It's Blue Monday! For instructions, just click here.

I hope you've had a good week.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When I was a young one--many years ago, I dreamed of having a tree house. What adventures I'd have! Why, I'd climb up into my dream tree house, and no one would know where I was. Total freedom! However, my dream never came to be.

Most days Johnny walks three miles. During one of his walks this week, he spotted a tree house, and a blue one at that! See the white ladder (on the left) that enables the lucky child to climb into his hiding place? It even has a balcony! Peek inside the door and you'll spot the throne (bucket) available for seating. I can imagine eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for lunch in that special place.



The dangling rope allows the young adventurer to swing down into the lake behind the house. Ah, bliss! Have you ever dreamed of a tree house?

Today is the final day for my book giveaway.
If you're interested, click on the cover of the book; it's located on my sidebar.

Happy Blue Monday!
