PINK SATURDAY & HAPPY VALENTINES DAY

Hello and welcome to A Valentine Pink Saturday hosted by Beverly of How Sweet the Sound. Please go to visit her and you can get a list of all the other participants.

Please pray for Beverly, I just found out that she is in the hospital with gallbladder surgery. Prayers to you Beverly. I hope by now you are resting comfortable!

Today Beverly asked us to show something related to Valentine's Day so I've posted a few of my favorite Valentine's.
Above is a very old pic of my sweet little Angel, she was only about three years old when this pic was taken. She used to pose really pretty for my ebay auctions back then. LOL

It's been snowing here since last week when I posted and what a week it has been. Last Friday night when I was trying to put up my pink saturday post my electric kept going off and on and I finally gave up and just posted my blog as it was and went back in and edited on Saturday when my husband got the generator up a running. I had spelling mistakes, links not added, Oh my gosh what a mess it was. It took me over 7 hours to upload pics because of the snow and I was just to tired to fool with it any longer. Of couse it was at a time when I had alot of early visitors, oh well, I'm sorry for any mistakes that were on here at the time you read it.

School was cancelled all week except for one day. Our electric was out for 3 days, our generator broke. You have no idea how thankful I am to have electric!!!LOL I've heard there are still some people in Penna. and WV that do not have electric yet. How hard it must be for them. We are lucky enough to still have gas when our electric is out so we had heat and were able to cook.

Now on to more Valentine Pinkness! Below is my Valentine tree, which I showed you before but love it enough to post it again.



Another favorite Valentine for me is my shelf over my couch. I decorated it all up with vintage Valentines and Hankies which is an idea that I borrowed from my friend Deb of Garage Sale Gal. If you've not been to her blog treat yourself to a visit with her. She is so creative! Finds the greatest flea market finds. It's always a treat to visit her.
Next I have a few pics of my porch this Valentine's Day. I leave my blue spruce and roses in the window boxes that I put in at Christmas time and add some hearts and red bows for Valentine decorating.

I just made this pretty pearl heart this week. I bought the heart, added the pink bells and made a rose using a new fabric rose making kit that I purchased at JoAnn's fabric store. Pearls are a favorite of thing of mine.

A close up.

I had gotten a special order to make Valentine tags. I loved how they came out and thought I'd share them with you. So here they are.

On Saturday my husband and I celebrated our 39th wedding anniversary. He surprised me with this beautiful bracelet. We were snowed in so we could not go out for dinner, we stayed home and had a delish homemade dinner of beef stew & dumplin's by candlelight.

Update on our deer that we have been feeding~~~ See the little one in the front holding her leg up? Well that poor deer, had a badly broken leg when we first started feeding her. It looked like a really bad break and just kind of dangled. We thought she would have to be put down but had hoped and prayed that with us feeding her she might stand a chance. Well it must have helped because she can now put pressure down on her leg. Oh I just can't tell you how happy I am about that!

In this pic they were headed up to the porch to let us know they were waiting to be fed.

Here comes the food little ones!!!!!!

Well that's it for this week. I will be back on Sunday with my Amour Valentine Swap. Can't wait to share my gifts with you, my swap partner really spoiled me.

Thank you so much for stopping by, it was so nice to visit with you. I really enjoy sharing my life with you all! Really a blessing to this gal that lives in such a rural area!!

Blessings to everyone! Shirl
