My mission statement~

I intend on "trying" to live a life that is about: not putting in my mouth things that are bad for me or have come from an animal that was treated cruely while alive on this earth and during slaughter, creating lasting fond memories for my children and grandchildren, adventure, challenging myself, respect others regardless of species, race, color or creed, taking risks, having fun, being grateful, respecting myself & my body, being authentically myself, taking responsibility for my actions, being proactive, being a problem solver, taking action, introspection, transition, change, honesty, growth, loving & helping others, having integrity, doing my best, being easy on myself, enjoying this world, becoming well read, seeing the wonder of it all and never allowing fear to hold me back!

I really like the one you chose. And I like the last one too since we are in that time of year right now.

Beautiful stuff!! I want to come visit you some day and just walk around and enjoy your art! Sorry--that might have sounded a little creepy--I didn't mean it that way!

I really like them all. They all bring a warmth to me when I look at them. I'm partial to the one with the chickens in it.....I love collecting poultry art and other items.

Will have to check out the art site.....thank you for sharing...=)

I love 'em. They are pictures of some of my favorite things. I love Thomas Kincaid prints, plus he is from this area. I love the cottages and cabins in the woods with all the different colors and especially love the snow pictures. I guess you could say I have snow envy since we don't get it here.

Those paintings are great! I love the one you got for your office! Very cool post! I checked out country girls site and will put her and her husband on my prayer list. Thanks for passing the need for that along to us. Can't have too many prayers!! I know how grateful we were to have them for Gerrit!
Hey, Heidi thank you for always checking in on me and for being such a sweet and special blog friend!! I feel like you pop up with your sweetness just when I need it! So thanks!
I can't go to CA just because it got too complicated and I fly standby with three kids in tow. Just ran out of time and energy to make it all work out. Life goes on!!
