Memorial Day Mosaic Monday

Happy Memorial Day!

As you go about your day enjoying your family/friends, eating/drinking, and having fun do not forget why you are able to do all those things! Thanks to the sacrifice of many men and women over the years you are able to "eat, drink and be merry!" The center picture of the mosaic was taken in Cape Cod, which is one of my favorite places in the world - thanks to everyone over the years who had made it possible for me to enjoy such a wonderful place!

Mosaic Monday: Valentine's Day 2011

“The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in.”
-Morrie Schwartz

Hello! Happy Valentine's Day! My husband and I don't celebrate Valentine's Day, after all we try make sure we celebrate every day together. However, we do try and make it special for our children, which is a lot of fun for us! Today's mosaic is comprised of images of vintage valentine cards - I think they are awesome! Enjoy!

"Love is the flower of life, and blossoms unexpectedly
and without law, and must be plucked where it is found,
and enjoyed for the brief hour of its duration."

I am substituting an image of the day for the thought of the day - Enjoy!
