Colin Makes Everyone Smile

A few pictures from Christmas morning. This year was the most tiring on me but also the most heart warming. I could not stay tired and grumpy for long with such wonderful people surrounding me. More pictures to come soon...hopefully ;)

Our First Snow

   

We actually got a few inches of snow yesterday but Colin only got to play in it when it first started to snow. It got dark by the time his hands had warmed back up. He loved every minute of the cold snow. We watched it snow for hours, it was wonderful.  We are keeping our fingers crossed that we get some more snow this winter. 

Happy Holidays

 

 

 

Happy Holidays from my family to yours.

Monday: Black and/or White

Colin in the canning pot.

Pile of sushi...yummy white sticky rice and cream cheese

I have been slacking on these last few color days. I am just so busy trying to get stuff ready for Christmas and my has been here the last couple days...excuses excuses :)

Happy Tuesday!

Sunday: Red

My Christmas gift from Christina- I love it sooo much, especially the red mushrooms.

Red knit scarf I made for Sarah

Red apples, I am making applesauce and apple butter as I type. The house smells delicious.

Last but not least some coloring done by Colin with a red crayon.

Saturday: Orange

Pictures: Orange yarn, orange daisy embroidery on vintage runner,  Colin's jacket, WIP

Thursday: Brown

 

Roxy and her cute brown patch.

My new brown glasses. Just picked them up a couple hours ago. Perfect timing.

I thought the picture of Roxy was appropriate for the day. We have been wrestling with the idea of finding her a new home. We just don't meet her energy needs. She needs other dogs to play with and a family who has more time for her. It has been a very sad day for me. It's one thing to feel this way, it is totally different when you decide to follow thru with it.

Thursday: Blue

Everything that was blue in the house belonged to Colin :)

More Blue here.

Wednesday: Pink

Vintage table cloth and a teddy bear dressed in pink pajamas

My Pink and brown rain boots. Rain boots are a must with the weather we are having right now.

My sock...yes I purposely wore a sock with pink on it today :)

Tuesday: Green

Happy Tuesday!

Monday: Yellow

I am participating in Color Week hosted by Color. Today is the first day, which means it is not to late for you to join.

It took some thinking to find some yellow in my house. Even my bananas were green :)

First photo is a vintage FTD vase

Second photo is the Earp pot

If at first you don't succeed...

Try...

Try again...

Inspiration/tutorials can be found here and here. I may not be done trying, when I am I will share the details :) For now I am happy with the overall size of 2 1/2" wide. But I am not sure if I like the style of the button or the fluffy flower more. What do you think?
