Love Letters

I was getting out some of my Valentines decorations today and I have to say, I am a helpless romantic.

I think that is why I like to decorate with antique and vintage pieces.

I like to imagine a story to go along with a lot of the pieces I buy....

for example can't you just picture a handsome man sitting down at this very typewriter and typing out a love letter to his sweetheart?

Or a beautiful woman typing a love letter to her hubby thanking him for the beautiful flowers and chocolates.

 I can, so that is how this vignette came to be.  

I hope all of you get lots of love letters this Valentine's Day!

A New Angle

It was a beautiful day here in Kansas yesterday so I grabbed my camera and went on a walk.  I purchased a new camera last month, nothing fancy, I just wanted a small camera that I could put in my purse and easily carry with me.

Here are some of the photos I shot.

Look how blue the sky was, GORGEOUS!

Look who else was out enjoying the day.

Not bad pictures for a little, inexpensive camera.  If you were wondering the camera is a Nikon Coolpix S3100.  Thanks as always for stopping by and I hope 2012 has started out great for all of you.  Hugs, Ruth
