I love the bowl - such a gorgeous colour. I too think acorns are rather special and marvel what they grow into. Love the crockery. Sorry you have to sell the boat. Have a lovely Sunday. I am being very lazy after doing my class yesterday. I had 10 ladies and I showed them how to make 3 different cards and a small table gift. Phew!!!!

We owned a Cal 20 for several years and sailed it a lot. Sad to sell it, but if you don't need it, might as well sell.

My set is completely white - a bit boring and I'm starting to tire of it. My friend gave me a single dinner plate for my birthday and I love it - its square with a kind of dip in the middle. Will have to see if I can find out where she got it from so I can start building a set.Dorothyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10237217955755971642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8865022255438031627.post-92150903523429463572013-10-19T05:38:12.279-07:002013-10-19T05:38:12.279-07:00Good Day Teresa, Your grandsons are sweeties..

The acorns, the antique bowl, the boys, Stargazer , the award, the leaves and your new dishes are each uniquely beautiful. Thanks for sharing your appreciation of each with us, and allowing us to appreciate them, too. It is so beautiful in our neck of the woods! I took the Grands out to the swing set and slide this morning amidst the wonderful gold and orange and red and green leaves. Soo wonderful! Hope to see you soon :)<br />Gracie xxGracie Saylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09499163425742659172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8865022255438031627.post-54183677019925417612013-10-18T23:06:14.303-07:002013-10-18T23:06:14.303-07:00Wow congratulationson your ward!

It is such a pretty color! <br />Hooray for the pin. Nice to be honored for you hard work and service.<br />I was sad to hear you are selling your boat. I hope the new owners will love it as much as you did!<br />The dishes are wonderful! In fact, that is exactly what I thought when I found them at Kmart up in Big Bear last summer. I love them, and use them every day. I broke a bowl though last week. Boo.<br />I hope you are feeling better now! <br />Your Autumn colors are glorious!<br />xo KrisKrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15578853096888320012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8865022255438031627.post-3173603470807740852013-10-18T21:15:40.325-07:002013-10-18T21:15:40.325-07:00Congrats Teresa!

The carnival glass is gorgeous! Lucky you.

Such rich colors and the acorns brought fond memories to me. Don't forget to get a perfect pic of your StarGazer so you can paint a picture of it to hang in your home and reminisce every time you see it.<br />Your apple pics from yesterday: They just might be Spigold's. A cross with NoSpy apples and Golden Delicious.<br />Thank you so much for sharing pics of your family, farm and treasures. They're heartwarming and so worth the visit to your blog.<br />Blessings- Ren In AzRen-in-Azhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06386269274230154291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8865022255438031627.post-85687087010958044682013-10-18T19:10:10.808-07:002013-10-18T19:10:10.808-07:00Teresa, Love your acorns and all the one's the...Teresa, Love your acorns and all the one's the little guys gathered.

I totally get it, how hard it is, because it isn't just "a" boat, but a boat with memories attached. It's not about a chunk of money, it's about a chunk of one's life. It's even harder to sell something that belonged to a loved one who has passed on. Like my husband's Harley Davidson Electra Glide. I was never fond of that bike, I never rode on it once when he had it, but just knowing how much he loved that bike and how much he enjoyed the times he spent traveling on it, that made it very difficult for me when I sold it. I guess I am just a sentimental slob when it comes to this sort of thing.<br />(((HUGS))) Susanne :)Susanne Tyreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04271812578614840958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8865022255438031627.post-8530650616221653222013-10-18T16:53:02.326-07:002013-10-18T16:53:02.326-07:00A beautiful and heartwarming post, Teresa!
