Breakfast *Club* Girlfriends (A Real Blessing) ~ Shabby Pink Pumpkin?

Hi friends!

Well, I am being true to my words and posting

a bit of what's going on today in my life.

Thursdays is my Breakfast *club* gals.

This group of gals, between 6-8 of us,

have been faithfully having breakfast, on Thursdays,

 now for over 12 years. 

It all began with an invite from one dear friend,

and the rest is history. 

We started when  many of our children were in 2nd grade.

Moms, stay at home or working part

time, began what I believe is one of the

best things anyone can have...support in friendship.

We have saved each other a gazillion $$$$ in counseling

bills...as we have shared lifes ups and downs,

struggles with school issues, hubby woes,

children woes, job losses,  health issues,

cancer, deaths in families,

and...

 as of late graduations and children

going away to college.

We ladies have been through

so much that we decided we would continue on,

even as our children are now flying the next.

I hold each one very dear to my heart and they

have become my support system.

Do you have friends like this?

I am truly blessed!

Pink and Shabby Pumpkins...

I found a couple pumpkins last year that I

forgot I had...got them coated in pink

and then never finished them.

Well,

this past week I pulled them out and

got one finished...ya wanna see?

It's all painted in a soft pink, with happy pink

roses painted on front...

then I added some lace and a battenburg

lacy doilie on top...then

sprinkled a few of my clay roses,

pearls, glitter and pink bow on

top to finish it all off

A shabby chic Pumpkin for the

Pink lover in all of us!

Going right over and adding it

to my etsy when I'm through!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Be Blessed!
