I GOT A LOVELY SELF PORTRAIT FROM ANNA FOR MAMA'S DAY, LOL.

TREATED MYSELF TO SOME SQUAT JARS. FOR WHENEVER I GET MY BUTT ROLLING ON MAKING BUTTER WITH THE VINTAGE BUTTER CHURNER :}. I WANT TO DO DIFFERENT FLAVORS :}.

LOOK WHO IS BACK ON THE MANTLE. EVERYONE WHO SEE'S IT, IS LIKE, "WHO IS THAT?".

IT'S THE 'INFANT OF PRAGUE'. AKA- JESUS AS A CHILD. :}

THE ONE ABOVE WAS ALWAYS ON MY GRAM GALLOS DRESSER AND I HAVE TWO MORE THAT GO DOWN IN SIZE. ONE FROM MY MOTHER IN LAW AND ONE CUTE SMALL ONE FROM POP.

THE ONE THING EVERYONE WHO SEE'S IT AGREES ON, IS THAT IT DOES NOT LOOK LIKE WHAT WE WOULD ALL PICTURE THE CHILD JESUS TO LOOK LIKE. I TEND TO AGREE. HE LOOKS LIKE A VICTORIAN ITALIAN BOY TO ME IN THIS STATUE, LOL. NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT ;].

The Infant Jesus of Prague (Czech: Pražské Jezulátko; Spanish: Niño Jesús de Praga) is a 16th-century Roman Catholic wax-coated wooden statue of child Jesus holding aglobus cruciger, located in the Carmelite Church of Our Lady Victorious in Malá Strana,Prague, Czech Republic. Pious legends state that the statue once belonged to Saint Teresa of Avila.

SO I FINALLY GOT TO PLANT MY STARTED SEEDLINGS YESTERDAY. I PUT THEM ALL ABOUT THE YARD. PERENNIAL CARNATIONS, SHASTA DAISY, SOME BABY'S BREATH (THEY DON'T LOOK SO HOT) AND CHINESE LANTERNS. I HOPE THEY MAKE IT????. THE CLOVERS STARTING TO REALLY KICK IN  :}. IT MAY NOT BE ACTUAL GRASS BUT ITS GREEN, SOFT AND PRETTY...AND COVERS ALL THE DIRT SPOTS ;].

 OH AND THE SUN IS OUTTTTTTT!!! THANK YOU LORDIE!!!!!!!

ENJOY EVERYONE!!
