St. Mary's Episcopal Church

Anytime i have a bad day or just feel like i need to be alone to talk with God i stop by St. Mary's, I feel so at peace there.  I just love of old churches, but this one especially holds a special place in my heart. I felt guilty even taken pictures inside, its such a sacred place, but i wanted to share it with others.

I am in love with its beauty, from the fresco's painted by Ben Long, its beautiful greek revival architecture, the very colorful stained glass windows, to my favorite painting the laughing Christ.

I have always said if i am ever blessed to get married, i would get married there.

Star of My Own Life

A quote from one of my favorite movies The Holiday

"Your susposed to be the star of your own life, not the best friend"

Why do i always feel like the best friend?

Mr. Rooster

Mr. Rooster has set outside by the basement door for like 40 years, my Granny knows i like anything old, i mentioned i liked and and she gifted it to me!!

I took him in the house and cleaned him up. After all that time outdoors i was surprised how well the paint had kept. I just LOVE it, one day he will have home in my kitchen!!

Love Letters

I just bought 5 love letter from the 40's i can't wait to get them they will make a perfect addittion to my sailor couples photos i have, i'm thinking i can do something really creative with them.

I told my Granny what i had bought, she told me she wished time after time she had kept the ones from my Grandfather during the WWII, they would truly have been a treasure.

The 40's were such a romantic time, letter writing is sadly becoming a thing of the past.

I only wish i had someone special to write love letters to.
