I'm sure by now most of us
have our Christmas Goodies
packed up and put away
for safe keeping
until next December...
I still have just a bit more
to pack-up but I'm close
And now onto the next Holiday!
"Sweethearts Day"
I don't do a whole lot of crafting
for Valentines Day
Put just bringing out the Pink
and Red goodies is inspiring me~
It sure was a crazy 2011
the economy here in California
is still a bit soft...
So with a New Year "2012"
Everything looking up and positive
Ready to tackle life and all
that it has to throw my way...
The car started giving us problems...
Nothing fun about car repairs
Keeping optimistic....
Knowing there is a reason for everything
even if you just aren't sure just
what it might be..
Affirm: "I have two choices for this day,
to be happy or to be unhappy....
and I choose to be happy."
Cheers to 2012

You make the things I've passed up at estate sales look so cute! Now I look with new eyes.
Great photos with the pink and red!
I love the reds and pinks!! It is fun to transition into spring with the pinks!

I choose Happy, too! And that little pink poodle makes me FEEL happy! How precious! ♥♥♥
Good choice and pretty pink fun!
Love all your pinks and reds. I have already got a few things out for Valentine's day too. Sorry about your car problems. No fun anytime, but especially at holiday time. Love your attitude though. Happy is always better. Thanks for stopping by my blog. The best to you in 2012.
Hi Diane - these vintage lovelies are so pretty! These are exactly the types of vintage things and colors that catch my eye! xo

I always want to choose the good and the happy! I like to FEEL good and thinking good is the key!
I still have Christmas up over here! Especially on my hutch! every day, I take down a couple christmas things and it helps me and my house to feel less shocked!
HAPPY New Year!!!
Very pretty necklace that you won and yoru table setting is beautiful!
I LOVE the colors of Valentine's Day..pink, white and red! I do have a few Valentine things that I should get out...Thanks for your input on the curtains!
Warmly,
deb
p.s. hubby's closing has been "pushed back" AGAIN! Trusting for God's timing!
ooooooo!!! Valentine's Day! I just love it! Maybe because red is my favorite color? Nah, I'm just a sucker for romance!
I WISH all my Christmas stuff was packed away, but I'm guessing my tree will still be standing into February. We're turning our attic into a bedroom so my son and daughter no longer have to share a room. Soooo, everything from the attic is now all over our house. We're living like sardines! No need to take the tree down, there's no place to put it!!
Happy New Year Diane! Hopefully 2012 will blow 2011, even with those pesky car problems. Lovin your pink poodle!
I don't do a whole lot of decorating for Valentines Day but those little dolls you have are absolutely adorable! Here's to a better 2012!
Blessings
Linda
