Passion equals Purpose

I have always been a 'passionate' person. I'm passionate about 'every day life'. Each day brings new 'treasures' to be enjoyed!  'Making Memories' is our family motto. And we certainly make the memories around here! My most prized 'treasure' in life is my family.  There are so many words to describe this 'crew'! Funny, creative, loving, rowdy, unique. Visit our About Us page to meet them.  The 'Love' of my life.  This is a pic of 'hubby' taken when we were camping. He is doing his favorite thing: Cooking! He is the best cook and baker there is.  No kidding. I cook out of 'necessity'.  He cooks with passion! You can visit  our Mom's Country Kitchen page to see the kind of 'food-prep' I enjoy doing. Heritage Home~Place Shoppe We absolutely love our booth space in a local business called the Iron Horse Primitives. There are over 20 vendors called t

Passionately Pink Party

Our Holiday Cookie Exchange Party and Fundraiser was a huge success! Guests bought tickets to get their name in the  Gift Basket Drawings. Several businesses donated gift items for the drawings. The money will go into our Breast Cancer Fund to be used for buying Gift Certificates from local businesses. The Gift Certificates are 'gifted' to local women that are going through breast cancer treatment.  Mmmm...the Hot Chocolate Bar! Deliciousness!  Googling for answers to Christmas Trivia questions?! Is that allowed?  Whatever it takes to win, right? Gotta love Google!  Stickers, Stickers everywhere! How many stickers can you collect at a Cookie Party!  Beautiful, Delicious, Creative Cookies!!!!  My personal favorite of the party were our two grand-daughters singing  'Create in Me a Pure Heart' using sign language! Precious little 'elves'!  Follow us on Facebook

Pink Christmas!

I'm on a pink mission! Inspired by my mother who is 'Fighting Like a Girl', I add pink to any holiday throughout the year. I bought a bag of pink bulbs from a consignment shop and of course since I'm a modpodge freak, I had to glitze the pink bulbs up with modpodge and glass glitter! Add some 'foo-foo' and some cute tags from   Eileen Mikolayunas   and voila, beautiful Christmas gifts!  My next mod-podge project are these beautiful glass wine glasses and small vases. These are Thank You gifts that will be given to donators to our Breast Cancer Fund. I filled them with candy and added a tag. The wine glasses will also make a great tea lite! Pink Peppermint Sticks! Added to a gift tag, they make great party favors! There's no end to all of the 'cutesy' things to be made in PINK! Follow us on Facebook
