My New Year's Wish...


"A Morning Wish". . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . W.R. Hunt

"The sun is just rising on the morning of another day, the first day of the new year. What can I wish that this day, that this year, may bring to me?

Nothing that shall make the world of others poorer, nothing at the expense of others; but just those few things which in their coming do not stop with me but touch me rather, as they pass and gather strength:

A few friends who understand me, and yet remain my friends.
A work to do which has real value without which the world would feel the poorer.
A return for such work small enough not to tax unduly anyone who pays.
A mind unafraid to travel, even though the trail be not blazed.
An understanding heart.
A sight of the eternal hills and unbelting sea, and of something beautiful the individual hand has made.
A sense of humor and the power to laugh.
A little leisure with nothing to do.
A few moments of quiet, silent meditation. The sense of the presence of God.
And the patience to wait for the coming of these things, with the wisdom to know them when they come."
Guide words: An Anthology of Inspiration and Humor, p. 13

October Sunset


Life has been so busy and hectic these last couple of months.
Last night I went outside to take a "breather"
and I captured this truly gorgeous October sunset.
It is finally starting to feel like fall here in Arizona.

The Beach...A Mini Vacation

Last week my sister and I took a mini vacation to Laguna Beach. The weather was perfect and we had so much fun. Pina Coladas and dinner on the beach, walking in the sand and just plain relaxing, it was perfect!
This is the view from our hotel balcony.

Family Fun!

First of all, it was Grandson's birthday, he turned 6. His Uncle left work and came over to help celebrate it. He was greeted by a gazillion piece toy to put together, he didn't give up until it was done!
Here is my daughter in law and my Baby Grandson, who is 6 months old today, they just sat back and enjoyed the day!
It was a great weekend! Now on to my hectic and busy week.

No, I'm Still Here...Just Been Busy


Wow! How the time has flown by. It is already September 6! One of my dearest friends posted a comment on my 'Facebook' wall last night mentioning how she missed my beautiful sunset pictures on my blog. I haven't been out to photograph a sunset for a long time. Starting this week I will take the time and make an effort to get out at sunset for a photograph. In the meantime here is a picture of the moon I took on August 2. Boy, I really am behind.

Update...

I have been so busy polishing up my new store, getting ready for the fall selling season that I have been neglectful to everything. Well, not everything...
I did take a couple of hours last week to go see Baby Grandson and my Son.
Baby Grandson is now 5 months old and so, so cute!

My head is in the Clouds

Last night's sunset...

It may seem as my head has been in the clouds lately, but honestly, I have been very busy. My sister and I have embarked on a new and exciting venture. We have opened two online stores. The first one is Little Legs, carrying Tights, Leg Wear, Dance wear and costumes for Children. The second one is for bigger girls, Legs In Lace Intimates, carrying lingerie and costumes for adults. I still have a lot of work to do, but it is so much fun!


XOXO, Gracie

Happy Monday

It's Monday again! I want to let everyone know that I have been very busy the last month and a half, which is why my blog seems to be very sporadic. I will be telling you more about what I have been doing in the upcoming week. In the mean time here is a picture of last night's sunset, it was so gorgeous. Hard to believe it was still over 100 degrees when I took this at about 7:40PM.
