Lebold Mansion

Beloved, If you enjoy Victorian Houses dolled up in HIGH FASHION interior design, then the 1880 Lebold Mansion will be eye candy for you. She's a good study located in Abilene, Kansas and might interest you.

These pictures are not in any special order. I think just viewing the pictures one will be able to see a variety of colors and patterns used, different lighting, decorative ceilings, elaborate draperies, period furniture, etc. All are blended together to create a Victorian Palace. From top to basement, all is decked out to beat the band. Lots more to see that isn't featured here.

I've toured the Mansion twice. The first time I was abit in a daze at the interior flashiness. The second time, my eyes weren't dancing about so much and it was easier to enjoy.

It's a treat and I would love to tour at a slower pace and soak it all in.

Last I knew...she was for sale! Wowza.

Tea With Thee

Dearest Blogging Friend,

As I review last year's posts about Tea With Thee I wanted to revisit the cups and saucers that we shared tea and coffee in during the past year.

The first picture of a cup and saucer has a poem attached to it that says,

"It's not the tea,

remember;

it's the spirit of the tea party.

And the spirit of the tea party is,

above all,

the spirit of true friendship."

I have to agree!

Your Friendship means so much to me. I enjoy hearing from you and what you share each time we have fellowship. Thank you and my prayer for you is that God Blesses you with all the goodness He has to offer.

Do any of these cups and saucers Speak to you?

Hope to hear from you and may you have a sweet day.

Let It Snow!

Oh the weather outside is frightful

But the fire is so delightful

And since we've no place to go

LET IT SNOW! LET IT SNOW! LET IT SNOW!

It doesn't show signs of stopping

And I've bought some corn for popping

The lights are turned away down low

LET IT SNOW! LET IT SNOW! LET IT SNOW!

When we finally kiss goodnight

How I'll hate going out in the snow

But if you'll really hold me tight

All the way home I'll be warm

The fire is slowly dying

And, my dear, we're still good bying

But as long as you love me so

LET IT SNOW!

LET IT SNOW!

LET IT SNOW!

LET IT SNOW! Was written by lyricist Sammy Cahn and composer Jule Styne in 1945 in Hollywood, California during one of the hottest days on record!

We have had a great deal of snow in the area of Kansas where I live and more is sure to come this Winter.

Until then:

Oh Praise the Lord! We're one day closer to Spring.

The Lord is good,
