White Wednesday

I almost forgot that today is White Wednesday.
I lieu of everything going today.. it slipped my mind.
I am in a bit of a funk.
I need to unwind ...seriously.
So in my perfect world


I would light as many candles as I could.
I love candle light. It soothes me.  But too many would make me a firebug.
(mmmm Robelyn?? )

I would slip into a nice hot bubble bath, turn on my iPod, and turn into a prune.

What would be better than this beauty?
I feel the tension melting away by just looking at her picture.

Cuddle up in the warmth of a soft bed..

and wakeup to a new day.
(Honestly, if I woke up to this scenery I would be simply delighted.)

But since I still have children, the white rooms will have to wait.
But the candles are lit, the wine is poured ( just a half of a glass)
the tub is calling my name and my bed awaits.
Tomorrow is a new day ladies..
let us rejoice in it.
I know I am!!!!

Dreaming of a White Christmas ...list.

I went Christmas shopping today.
Whew I was tired when I came home and a tad sleepy.
( I think the huge margarita I had with lunch, with Mr. H, helped out some)
As soon as I sat on my couch- I fell fast asleep.
I dreamt of a White Christmas ..wish list.

my dream home.
(singing, " Some daaaaayyy we'll beee to geeeethhherrr.")
After my children have left home.. I am on a MISSION to make this happen.

Sigh.....

Ever had visions of white diamonds dancing in your head??

 
Or a sugar plum fairy decked out in the latest Dior Couture?
 
How does your garden bloom?
Mine blooms in Chanel.

 

These boots were made for walkin'..
(wiping the drool from my mouth..excuse me for 1 sec..) 
 
right up to the bar in my matching jacket..
(Sorry PETA)
 
So may your days be merry and bright...
And may all your Christmas' be....white.




Speaking of my wish list...
I want to introduce one of my bloggy sisters!! .
If you want to meet a truly chic, fashion forward, and simply stunning woman of faith..
then swing by to see her inspiring blog.  I promise you will not be disappointed.
On top of being truly inspirational ( and flawlessly beautiful) she has the most adorable daughter that she dotes on. I so wish you would stop by and give her a warm,"Howdy!"

MERRY CHRISTMAS

White Wednesdays and Giveaways ....Wooohooo!!!!



 Whenever I think of the color white I think of First Sundays.
If you are looking at me sideways wondering, " huh?" - Let me explain.
First Sunday is Communion Sunday. When I was a little girl the ladies and girls wore white on First Sunday.
That is one of my favorite memories. Angelique, myself, and our best friend, Sheree would be dressed in white from head to foot- even in the winter. We did this for many years.

I guess my church upbringing has led to my love for churches..


and all that it stands for.

(This is my daughter Morgan praise dancing at our church)

We began wearing our white at an early age..

and I even passed it on to my daughters.
(These are my daughter Taylor's shoes. I found them in my great-grandmother's trunk the other day.
I put them there years ago .) 

But I guess the ultimate white dress is this one... I can't wait to get mine.

P.S. Did you hear the music? That is the lovely Whitney Houston. I love this song. It represents where I have been and and where I pray to go.
