Pink Saturday


Hi everyone and welcome to my Pink Saturday post!
My, it's been a busy weekend! First of all, I want to thank all of you who have been praying for my cousin Cynthia whose husband Jim passed away on Thursday. Jim had been suffering with brain cancer for about a year and he lost his battle with it early Thursday morning. Cynthia and Jim did not have a family so she does not have the love and support of children to help her through this. Please continue to pray for her that she receives healing and comfort along the way.



Hubby and I also celebrated our Anniversary on Thursday, today is Hubby's birthday, and tomorrow is Mother's Day! Whew! May is always like this, busy, busy, busy! On the 11th, my son and his wife celebrate their 8th Anniversary and on the 19th it's another birthday; Jared, my little grandson will be turning 5 years old.


So, after having told you all that, I am sharing one of my little tea-for-one sets which I treated myself to the other day. It looks very French with the script on it. I love the yellow with the pink roses!

The pink carnations you see in the photo are part of my Anniversary bouquet. Aren't they a gorgeous colour of pink?Love the little rosebud handle on the cover of the tea pot!


I am also sharing my Anniversary bouquet with lots of pink in it.
Happy Pink Saturday everyone and Happy Mother's Day to all you beautiful Moms out there in Blogland! Be sure to go visit our hostess Beverly at http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/my_weblog/

Thank You and A Prayer Request


Good morning everyone~ Hubby and I spent a lovely evening together celebrating our Anniversary. We had dinner at a wonderful restaurant where I had Casablanca Scallops and Hubby had a big steak. The entrees were delicious! Hubby's nephew, who manages the place, brought us dessert on the house! It was a lovely evening and we enjoyed it so much.

I want to thank each of you for your lovely comments and your good wishes. I so appreciate you all!

Yesterday, I also received the news that my cousin Cynthia's husband Jim, passed away. He had been suffering with brain cancer for about a year. He lived to be 58 years old, as yesterday was also his birthday. Cynthia and Jim never had their own family and so she mourns his loss alone.
Please pray for her that the Lord would comfort her at this time and give her direction in the days to come. The funeral is tomorrow, Saturday.

My Auntie P, Cynthia's mother, will be there with her for a few days but she has not been feeling well lately nor has my Uncle Doug. Please pray for them all. The Lord knows what needs they each have.

Thank you and God bless you, my friends!
