Cozy Little House

Ever since Brenda from Cozy Little House gave us a tutorial about using Picnik, I have been having lots of fun making collages. If you have not tried it yet, go visit Brenda and read all about it. You will have lots of fun too!! Thanks Brenda ~ you are a doll!!!

Bentley, should Mama make a collage of some of your pics? We have lots to choose from.

Love,

Susan and Bentley

Over the past year and a half, I  have met some wonderful

new friends.  Bloggers create their own community and it's one

whose boundaries are broad.  We reach out to fellow bloggers in other states

and countries.  We share happy moments and sad ones too.

We meet others who share our interests.  We are inspired and amused.

We are enlightened.  Most importantly, we lift each other up.

Thank you ~ each and every one of you!  I am especially

grateful to Brenda who has educated me and many others.  She

has welcomed us into her Cozy Little House.  She has dazzled us with

her beautiful photos, helped us be better bloggers, introduced us to

new friends and has been the best kind of friend to so many!

Thank you dear Brenda.  We love you!!

We are here for you.

Hugs,

Susan and Bentley

I would love to get out in the garden but as I look out the front window, there is nothing but rain. Rain and more rain! The ground cover is so thick it has buried the old lawn chairs out front. My poor peonies have lots of buds, but the cool temps and lack of sunshine are keeping the blossoms from opening up.

I still have pansies though. They are happy in the cool and wet weather. Bentley and I are longing to get outside, but we'll just have to poof and fluff the inside of the cottage.

First I want to show you this darling set of handmade jewelry I won from Jennifer over at The Toy Box Years!! Thank you so much Jennifer! I know that I will enjoy wearing these sweet pieces this summer.

Aside from fluffing the pillows in the cottage, I'll be visiting Cindy's Show and Tell Friday at My Romantic Home, and Brenda's Cozy Little House for Welcome Wagon Friday.

Bentley, if we put on your yellow rain slicker you can go outside and not get too wet. Bentley says no.

Love,

Susan and Bentley
