Two for One ~ Blue Monday & Trash To Treasures....

Long story short,

Monday's Blue Monday post is

combined with Tuesday's Trash to Treasure post.

Now I can't separate them without losing pictures.

Sorry!

So, if you're still with me, you might want to get comfortable for the long post! {smiles}

For my Blue Monday contribution,

I'm traveling back in my archives to October,

and the NC State Fair,

which had the following display of a BLUE horse....

....and a BLUE cow!

With a notable Cow Tail.

A few more pics of our day at the fair.

David never meets a stranger.
He would talk to the wall, if he thought it was listening.
5 seconds on the ride, and he made a friend.


Ashley and David rode a few together....

I had to sneak this picture.

Ashley expressing some brotherly love.

These moments really make me smile! :)

And MY favorite part of the fair....

Funnel Cakes....

I can't wait until Spring and the flowers it brings...

{...sigh...}

Trash to Treasures Tuesday

is hosted by Diane, at A Picture is Worth a 1,ooo Words.

My mantle has been cleared of Christmas.....

...only the wreath remains.

The white vase in the middle was found at a thrift store for $4.00.

I wanted to fill it with fresh flowers, but the local "affordable" places were nearly out.

Boxwoods were used instead.

Yard sale plate. Can't remember the price, but I'm sure that it was under a dollar.

Silver ice bucket, an eBay find. Such a versatile and useful piece, making it's third appearance on my blog in some capacity.

I encourage you to visit both of these ladies, for more great contributions!
