Here is the link for Maria's Sunshine and Daisy digi-freebie, click here.

And of course I found it as soon as I clicked off of my blog, grrr....and if I had searched in History on IE I would have found it sooner, lol...My brain is fried for the day to many blogs!! LOL...

When you Smile ~ WordArt~ and Layout

Okay now if my house doesn't get cleaned we can blame Helen, lol...She asked me the other night if my photo/graphic program did transparent backgrounds and I said yes...We were discussing Word-art for digi scrapping...and it dawned on me that I can do my own word-art...I had never tried and didn't know how easy it was...well below is my first try and I was tickled...it is sooo easy, duh me!! Now I put it in a layout so you can see how it works...it's fun! I'm going to have way too much fun with this...lol....I also got to thinking (Uh OH, she's thinking again) I could probably print this out on a transparency and use this in my paper scrapping too....just to darn sweet!!

Thanks Helen!!!!

Below is the Word-art I did..."When you smile the whole world smiles with you."

And below you can see the digi layout I used it on...

Isn't it cool....

That is my friend Dawn's kiddos when they were at Driscol's childrens hospital a few weeks ago...Dacey is such a beautiful young lady and Trey...well Trey is Trey....Mr. HAM it up!!

The other items from the layout are from Marial France and is a freebie kit called Sunshine and Daisies...and I seem to have lost the link to her sight...if you know it let me know what it is and I'll post it...If and when I find it I'll post it...sigh!!

The link for my word art "When you smile..." can be found here. Now it isn't zipped as it is a small file...so when you go to download it click save instead of open...have fun and enjoy!!

What the name Wendy means...

Wendy

You are very charming... dangerously so. You have the potential to break a lot of hearts.

You know what you want, how to get it, and that you will get it.

You have the power to rule the world. Let's hope you're a benevolent dictator!

You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone.

You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together.

But for the important things, you pull it together.

You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people.

You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts.

You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals.

You are balanced, orderly, and organized. You like your ducks in a row.

You are powerful and competent, especially in the workplace.

People can see you as stubborn and headstrong. You definitely have a dominant personality.

You are a free spirit, and you resent anyone who tries to fence you in.

You are unpredictable, adventurous, and always a little surprising.

You may miss out by not settling down, but you're too busy having fun to care.

My friend Helen had found this website that tells you what your name means...Feel free to go check out your name...click here

But I also noticed that some of the things it said about Helen and Fred it repeated it on all of the descriptions...which probably means being human we all have these characteristics!! But it's fun and doesn't hurt to try!!

For a special treat Mom a video of your Grandson and his dog...actually 3 videos combined into one...Enjoy!!

Wendys slideshow & Misc. Photos

Some of my photos wouldn't fit on my slideshow the way I wanted them too...

Coreopsis Bloom

Normally these wildflower bloom later in March but there were a few out already. I noticed them Sunday and wanted to get a few photos of them. We had a frost last night and today they were a bit under the weather....that is why I have the backside of a bloom! They weren't feeling to perky today!

This is a Scurfy Pea. I had two decent photos of it but took the one Macro photo...blew it up and put it on this photo. I liked the bigger photo as it showed the type of leaf and my Mother likes to see those leaves, lol....Enjoy Mom and if you click on the photo it will bring up an even larger one on your screen so you can really scrutinize it!!

Okay this was my favorite photo of the day!! Michael taking photos of ME!! LOL...and if you look at his slide show you can see the photos he was taking of me!!

Michaels point of view slideshow

Michael took some photos today and I thought I would share them in a slide show!

Enjoy!

He also made comments on his photos and I added those...

A little of this and that...

Today we did a little of this and that...worked on the property this morning, went to town and got some sand for Michaels sandbox, worked on the property again, rode Julie, watched Michael build sand castles and sat outside enjoying a beautiful South Texas Sunset!!

We burned up brush piles this morning

I rode Julie this evening

Michael played in his sandbox
