She Sells Seashells Down......

She Sells Sea Shells

She sells sea shells on the sea shore.

The shells she sells are sea shells, Im sure.

And if she sells sea shells on the sea shore,

Then l'm sure she sells seashore shells.













We are off again....22 of us.

TWENTY-TWO--Bigs and Littles

It is taking two houses to hold us all. Seabrook, SC here we come. Can't wait. Our family is scattered near and far; to get us all together is a fantastic journey.  






I suppose I will want to paint a beach scene with 22 zany-crazy characters doing "beach stuff."


My goodness, YES, more seashell photos!!!! As though I don't have one thousand or more. A 

"kid at heart" can never have enough seashells !

Silver Linings from the Heart

Seeing how long it has been since posting, makes me a bit sad, but sometimes we don't have a great deal of control over one's more pleasurable activities.  Many happenings in our home....a daughter, husband and two loved dogs have come to live with us for the summer. Our first born granddaughter has graduated from high school and a trip to her graduation was a renewal of family bonds and love.
We visited the cemeteries where our parent are laid to rest.  We have celebrated birthdays.  And we have moved load after load of items to charitable causes to make room for our summer family.  Yes, it has been good. Yes, it has been busy.  Yes, we wouldn't have it any other way.

This week is  Photo Heart Connection hosted by Kat Sloma.  Choosing a photo to represent all that has taken place these last months is truly impossible.  But my camera wasn't in full retirement: here are a few photos to share that touch my heart.  



SILVER LININGS WHEREVER WE LOOK
