Happy March and welcome to TFT! This is now my SEVENTH year co-hosting this fabulous weekly link party for bloggers and blog readers with Katherine of Katherine’s Corner and a fantastic group of bloggers!

If you are looking for inspiration and new friends, you have come to the right place. Be sure to check out all of the wonderful blog post via the link up below.

No Spring home tour this week…

This week I had intended to join several blogging friends for a spring home tour, but over the weekend my close aunt received a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. She is only 59 and as you can imagine, our family is devastated. I just wasn’t in the mood to decorate, photograph, or write a big blog tour post. Please remember my aunt Tami in your prayers. We are praying for a miracle, that the cancer is contained in only a portion of her pancreas that can be removed and that she can live several more years.  We are still waiting on a few more tests to make sure the cancer hasn’t spread elsewhere but she is going to begin chemo very soon. 

She is a strong woman of faith and her attitude actually perked me up a bit and gave me hope! I had a half a day off work today for an eye doctor appointment, so I took the time to do some deep spring cleaning and catch up on some spring decorating.  I have spring break next week, so I HOPE to have sunny days for taking pictures and I can get a  spring decor post  up by the end of the week!

Big Birthdays to Celebrate!

Monday is my 5oth birthday, and this weekend we are going to visit our son in NY, who turns 20 tomorrow! Rather than complaining about getting older, I am going to live each day to the fullest and be grateful for every day God blesses me and my family with!

*Speaking of getting older, I noticed that I had misspelled several words in last week’s TFT post. I didn’t catch it at the time, but I couldn’t find my glasses when I wrote the post. I am not completely losing my menopausal mind…just my glasses three or four times a day (even when they are on my head!)
