My Son's Graduation from BGSU, Ohio :)

Hi All, 

I hope you are all having a lovely day :)

The Sun is Shining here in the Pac. Northwest and all is well :)

Well, I know I haven't been around much and that is because I was on an extended road trip that ended up in Ohio to celebrate my youngest Son's graduation from Bowling Green State University, in Ohio :)

All our family was able to get together for this very important milestone in our family's life and I am truly grateful :)

Here are a few photos of the Grad & his Sibs & Dad :)

(before you ask where am I??? I am (hiding) behind the camera, LOL!!!! :)

Names for Baby Beckham.

Hi Everyone, hope you are all doing well! :)

I read or heard somewhere that Victoria Beckham is rumoured to have scheduled a C. Section in America on the 4th of July for the delivery of her 4th child presumed to be a Girl and I thought it would be fun to come up with some name selections for her.
 
With 3 boys called Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz,  I thought I might offer a few names to help the Beckhams if they are struggling to make a decision on what to call their expected little girl  "Baby Becks".

Here is my list so far,


Possibly;

1). Juliet,

2). America,

3). Star,

4). Queenie,

5). Firework,

6). Spangle,

7). L.A.,

8). Sparkle,

9). Princess,

10). Galaxy, 

11). Red,

12). White,

13). Blue,

14). Malibu,

15). Hollywood,

16). Glitter,

17). Feather,

18). Tutu,

19). Ocean,

20). Washingtonia,

21). Westminterina,

22). Of course my fav. would have to be POPPY (He! He! :)

(Unaltered image of my POPPIES in my Garden, yesterday, thought you might like to see this one :)

Also, I think middle names would have to be Michelle (Obama) and Catherine (Duchess of Cambridge)

So, what do you think the Beckhams should call their soon to arrive Baby?????

Please feel free to add your Baby name suggestions in the comments, :)

Have a Lovely Weekend!

In a Treasury on California Blue's Blog.

Yesterday California Blue asked Etsians (in the Forums) to match items in their shops with a beautiful flower photo she posted. I responded and she was sweet enough to include my yellow scarf from my Esty Shop http://www.designt.etsy.com/ in her Treasury posted on her blog.

Here is the link to her blog post: http://californiablue.tumblr.com/post/180493638/photo-inspired-treasury-this-is-the-first-of if you have time check it out it is inspiring! :)
