my father passed away unexpectedly and in an instant after a day of fishing on may 7...his favorite past time especially since losing my mom five years ago. it was a shock to us, but he really did get a first class ticket; he died doing what he loved and never knew he left the world! to be parentless is the greatest feeling of emptiness I have ever felt in my life....it is the kind of heartache you can feel in your bones. I will miss them greatly, but I have made it a priority to keep them alive in truth and honor! I anxiously await what the Lord has for me and my hubs, this is a BIG transition and I feel changes coming! always make the most of everyday, life has no guarantees!

hello friends and welcoem to another fabulous week of inspired by, these ladies are amazing and the inspiration pics are so fun! I was inspired by the plaid tea towels on the line and of course the clothes line itself. I created a little banner using the letter from a pink fresh sticker pack. I used time holtz distressed ink to stencil the plaid background which is also a tim holtz stencil and the fun stamp market flowers were in my little stash box. I hope you have an amazing day and make time to play along with us!
