The Cousins Are Coming The Cousins Are Coming And I Am Going......

My cousins from Pennsylvania,
my home state,
are coming to visit.
We have not spent any real time together
in over FORTY years!

So, while they are here I will be taking
A BLOGGING BREAK
for the week.

 I put this on
the chalkboard in my kitchen.
The chalkboard
 is an old window with two panes.
Yes- You are right-
My printing is not all that great-
Nothing like the professional chalkboards
you see out there.
But...
I love it anyway!
Bottom:

I can't wait for
My Cousins to get here
and meet my family.
Let's hope they don't go home
early after meeting 
this crazy crew.

SEE YOU SOON!

  2. Have a fun time, Diana. I get together with my cousins at least once a year. It's fun to be with other that share a family connection from our childhood.

  6. Enjoy your time. I'm sure it will go quickly. Bruce's sister and husband came to visit from PA also and time whizzed by so fast. Oh, and your writing looks GREAT! I had posted something I wrote on one of my boards with my "great" handwriting and I had someone actually suggested that it would look better if I used a chalk pen. I nicely thanked her and told her I was "old school" and like real chalk. Bwahahaha!

  37. How fun for you to get a visit with your cousins. I am extremely close to one of my cousins, but hardly see the others.

    Your chalkboard is great. We cannot and should not ever compare ourselves or our homes to the professionals. Your chalkboard looks lovely and was done by you.
