Butterfly Painting, Picking and Eating Bday Party

 Back in Nov. I painted
this for a friend that lost
her sister, since she loves
purple and butterflies, I wanted
to put that in the painting. 
I finally saw her Sunday 
night to give it to her.

James' (venue) bday is
Jan. 30th but he likes to
have his bday party later.
Sunday night we had a
get together. A picking and 
eating together!
We had SOUPS.
I made potato.
There was two types
of bean soup. two crocks
of cream of broccoli, taco 
soup, lasagna soup,
and homemade tomato
soup....plus, chesses, 
crackers of all kinds and
desserts. 
Lisa made homemade bread.

Our youngest picker is
10 years old.

He sings too.

There were about 10
players there. These folks
do not ever play together
but it is amazing how
one can start playing
and the rest just jump in.



I am not a picker,
I don't play an 
instrument but
me being me had 
to have some fun
last night so I 
took a guitar. 




HAHA...
overlook the pics, I 
had to snap from
a video Julie put
on FB.

It looks like you were having fun. I have played musical instruments, but all wind, no strings. I wanted to learn to play the guitar when I was a kid.

Love the fun pictures and that adorable little tiny guitar! I see a banjo picker....I love banjo music. My Great Pa-Paw played banjo. Oh a soup supper sounds DELICOUS!! I love to make soups in my crock pot and yes, I do use mine many days a week for soups, stews, spaghetti sauce and all kinds of stuff. Yesterday you mentioned THAT TACO SOUP......oh my gosh I had never heard of taco soup, ate taco soup, or made taco soup. Then you put that recipe up sometime last year I think it was.....we LOVE IT AND now I make it all the time. We put sour cream and fritoes on top. Happy weekend!

Very nice painting. I bet your friend appreciated it.
That party sounds like fun and I would have had to try a little of each of those soups.

All those soups. I would have had to have some of each. I love soup when it's cold outside.

You're picking and grinning.

Have a fabulous day and weekend, Pam. Scritches to all the furbabes. ♥

The Rest of Today

After my trip to town today,  visit with the doc, stopping  and picking up breakfast I  headed home.  I had dropped Dakota off at mom's for the day. He was going  to spend the day  playing with Klohe and Cheyenne. While he was hanging at mom's Lily and I chilled all day.  So much to do but I can't seem to get it in gear. Later....I had an apt for a hair cut. But I left out early to stop  at the  Mystic Heart. I picked up some healing stones there.  Entering the store I read this sign... haha Then while in there I saw this sign. From there I headed to see  Kelley, my hair stylist. This is what I was shooting for. Course, it will look different on  me due to hair color and  texture of hair.  I am good with it. I got to Heads Up a bit early  so Kelley still had a young boy she was working on and his dad after h...

Swollen Hand and Leipers Fork

Wasp sting update~ I made an apt to go  to Fast Pace on Sunday, then canceled.  I wanted to give it one  more day. I did ice  off and on all day and  did Benadryl cream, Sunday night, swelling  is going down. This was Sunday  morning. This in is this  morning. Never been so happy to  see my ugly veins before! YAY L eipers Fork, TN. Cool little place about 30 mins from the house. I have been here, years ago but the other day, I wanted to get out, so I picked  Leiper's Fork.  Of course, since I love old  cars I had to stop and take pics of this one. Then off I went,  camera around my neck and ready for pics. This is one of the local  gallery.  Isn't that yellow door cute? Cool door with all the  details on it. I also love the old door knobs on these old doors. I thought this would  stand out in a pic as B&W. Again, the detail, down to  the very knob itself. This is a store in the mist of about ei...
