My first post

I've been thinking about starting a blog for a while now. I would like to share what I love to do when I'm not doing my day job. My kids live here in Arizona, but my parent's and little sister live back in Michigan. I hope this will be a window into my life for those close to me. And maybe along the way I'll get to meet and make some new friend's out there in blog land.
At the moment I'm working on my son's wedding. He's my youngest and the first to marry. Mason and Brittany are doing a small wedding this coming Wednesday. So we will all be in Mesa for a small ceramony with the family here in Az. And a small get together afterwards. We're all very happy for them and can't wait for the big day. I've been working on the flower's for the bride. My daughter just saw them today. And she love's the way they came out. Which makes me feel very good, because she is a very talented young women. And I'm sure those of you who craft or paint or arrange flower's,  know that feeling of not being sure of your finished product.
It's been a bit cool today. So I hope the weather is much warmer the middle of this week. Aubrey and I went to the Antique Mall today. We both had in mind what we wanted,which in most cases we are very good at keeping to what we want and not let our eyes wonder where they should not. I'm working on some cake stand's, so I picked up a few plates and glasses to see what I can come up with. Aubrey on the other hand ended up with an end table, Tv tray and a few odd's and end's. We had a great time and as my husband would say " that's all that matter's". And he's right that is all that matter's after a rough week at the day job.
Coach was busy all weekend at a Combine. It's this thing that football player all gather at. Do some running, throwing. Football thing's. I've never been to one, but I hear it's important event. The coaches get to see what the player's can do. Coach came home a little red today. I guess he thought since it was overcast and cool he wouldn't get a lot of sun. Wrong. So yes football season has started for us. Next week it's a coaches convention for three days. Last week it was three days of listening  to other coaches giving their tips on coaching. And I'm sure there's something more coming up. I just can't think of it at the moment.
So it's Sunday night, and I need to spend some time with the coach. He's the lucky one tommorrow. No school President's Day and all. I on the other hand I have to be to work early. So I hope everyone has a great week. Our's will be busy. I will post pictures as soon as I can of the up coming wedding. And hopefully you'll let me know what you thing of the flower's.
