Here are the rest~ Of course I just love this navy color! And Some more of this combo my new "old" favorite!
I don't have time to say much today as I am busy with my daughter and niece! My but they do keep me busy. You'd think they would keep each other busy right? huh! lol~ Ah well I am sure they will be too busy for me in time.
Seeya after Frantz!!!!

Yesterday Matt and I drove out to Frantz Art Glass. My dad gave me gift certificate for my birthday and what better way to spend it than on the vetrofond odd lot glass in the picture below. Yum!!! In descending order they are Bananna Cream, Lemon Ice, Orange Sherbet, River Rock and an assortment of Poppy. I can't wait to melt some! I also picked up some of the ASK colors because they looked so pretty lying in their boxes~
Then there are the staples Coral, Dark Ivory, Sky Blue, Periwinkle and a few others not seen here~
What a glorious way to spend a beautiful day~ It took us a little over three hours including my shopping, I am sooo indecisive :) Matt is so very patient, while I perused the glass he was dropping other goodies in my basket, a new tool that was on my list (How did he know? I didn't tell him I wanted it) a license plate frame that says "Plays with Fire" and a couple of other things. It was fun, especially when we got home and I sorted the glass into my bins~ Can't wait for next week when I have torch time.
Have a great Day!

Then we went berry picking and saw lots of beautiful wildflowers
The treasure at last!!!
Oh yeah :)
Don't you wish you were here?
Washed and added to vanilla ice cream. Not quite enough for a pie. Everyone was pretty tired from all of the hiking so we picked just enough for ice cream.
Hope you are all having a relaxing Sunday afternoon too~
Pretty pink wildflowers Got Moss?
The ridge through the trees
You just never know what you will find on the forest floor :)
Another shot of the ridge

We had a great hike, it was pretty exhausting in the best way. Oh but wait... there is a bit more I need to add :)
Chelsea and I took the kids for a hike this morning. Tall trees! The weather was amazing and perfect but it did get a bit warm before we finished
taking our long walk through the beautiful forest.I just love to be out in the woods. It always smells so sweet and piney~
Everything is so green and beautiful right now~
And TALL!!!
Remnants of our winter windstorm. This giant was ripped straight from the ground and tossed in between some other trees, it is wedged about eight feet up in between the trees. There was plenty of visible damage in the forest but nothing else as dramatic as this!
