The Good News!

This weekend is pivotal for Christians in centuries past & present & future.............

We heard a beautiful message last evening and one of the main things that spoke volumes was our minister stated the world wants a Christ, but does not want a cross.

May you have a blessed weekend,

Oh so Random Today.....

Here is a medley of pictures, random just some inspiration and some of these are gifts to us.

{Thanks Debby for morning chat the other week and spring treats + baby gift for zach}

He is Risen!

Darcy, well Kip, made this cross {thank you} from the branches that fell from the last winter storm. I tried to get the whole cross in a picture but, the glass made it too complicated. Here is parts of it...Darcy finished decorating it this morning in the store. She tells me she was there at 7:00, as her hubby was heading down South to help rebuild houses from hurricane Katrina. Anyway she did a number on the store in those wee hours this Saturday morn. I on the other hand was snoozing in. I will post more on the venture that was going on today! Just wanted to post pics of our very large cross 5' tall and we are leaving it up awhile.
A glorious Easter to everyone. He is Risen, indeed!

"An apple a day"...........

Last Monday Darcy & I took off with our husbands to look at a mac computer. We headed to the apple store which was 1 1/2 hours from the "middle of nowhere". Voila, this computer now graces our store's back room. We now have the means to do anything creative with this machine, OK after the glazed look leaves our eyes and we figure out how to operate it! This means we now can upload our e-commerce pics with our web designer this Saturday. Yes, things are moving along, not as fast as we would like, but that's OK ........we want this venture to be done right. Many decisions to be made, it's like opening another store!

Meanwhile, many of you are getting ready for the Easter weekend. We posted pics of new things that arrived at the shop, some of which are vintage finds.

To everyone in the Midwest----stay dry!

Give us this day our daily bread

I just wanted to share this with friends. We are fast approaching Easter and want to focus on this time of year as it means a lot to us. I don't want to go on and on but I do believe as I stumbled on this I want to share it with you. Have a blessed day and let me know what your thoughts are. I just wanted to do better this morning with my walk with Jesus Christ. I hope this makes your day! (After you go to the link, you can print Nancy's message to really study these thoughts, believe me I need to!)

Love,

Spring 2007

Darcy's creative display! We had a good response to window. Amy Butler's fabric is suspended from the ceiling and our "bust" is adorned in the Morning Glory pattern. Libeco Home's striped bags from Belgium add a fun twist.

Happy Easter! He is Risen!

French Carnival pots are dressed for spring & summer!
