Time to Hang Up the Rain Boots and Bring Out the Sunshine
We had a nice sunshiny day for Easter. Perfect for a grill out and egg hunt. It took us an hour to find the prize egg. I forgot where I hid it. Please tell me I'm not the only one who does this otherwise, my family's diagnosis may stick. (I did hide more than one prize egg.)
Even though the rain has dissipated, I'm on the lookout for rain boots. I just think they are cute. Check these out.
I'll probably settle on these affordable pair from Target and place them next to my umbrella holder in the foyer.
Speaking of being on the lookout, here's my little son looking out on a beautiful view last week.
It's from The Pinnacle Club in Augusta, GA. We were there for a dinner honoring the Doc and 13 others who were being inducted to AOA.
"Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society, a professional medical organization, recognizes and advocates for excellence in scholarship and the highest ideals in the profession of medicine. Their values include honesty, honorable conduct, morality, virtue, unselfishness, ethical ideals, dedication to serving others, and leadership. Members have a compelling drive to do well and to advance the medical profession and exemplify the highest standards of professionalism."
Guess you could say, we were pretty much on top of the world that day.
Thanks to everyone for all the nice comments you wrote last week. I have enjoyed reading them all.
Trying to get back in the blog groove.
Last week to enter giveaway!

I don't know that I could slosh around in the rain in Coach boots. Love the colorful ones above them! What a great way to brighten up a grey day. The polka-dotted Target boots are really fun, too. Glad you had a nice trip. Another big congrats to the hubs. Such an incredible honor. Thanks for sharing.
I was beginning to worry that I was the only person who forgets where she puts things! I am currently looking for a white platter that I needed for Easter dinner yesterday! I guess I need to start writing down where I put stuff! :)
Is that your fence with the boots? I ADORE that!! I love the look of the boots but I don't know if I could wear them...sigh....my feet have become pretty fickle as I've gotten older! LOL
Beatrice, first off congratulations to the Doc. What a terrific honor! Cute photo! No rain boots here, though I've envied the ones I've seen. Need to add these to my list, but we've been in a drought for so long that rain hardly appears in our vocabulary these days. Still they would be fun. Love the shot of the boots hanging on the fence all planted with sunny flowers. Cute idea.
Hope you find the missing egg.
Hugs ~ Sarah
Just Simply Fabulous! ~Cheers Kim
Love the boots!! I wish I could put ours away, it is supposed to rain all week!
Your little man is so handsome and that view is beautiful. :)
That is too funny, forgetting where the prize egg was. Oh well, at least your husband didn't say that the Easter Bunny must be getting lazy because of where "he" hid the easter basket this year for my step-son. Umm, I guess laziness could be the correct term. We always hide the baskets for the kids, and now only one kid qualifies for hide and seek baskets, as the other kids are now MEN!
What a clever idea! Hugs!
Congratulations to the Doc! Those wellies on the fence are a fabulous idea, so cute! I have the sweetest pair of polka dot wellies, no idea where they are though, your not alone in forgetting things!
Great boots and congrats to the Doc. Great recognition.
Congrats to your hubby and the wonderful wife and family who support him:-)
I love wellies too but never find them all that comfy! I do love those kids boots planted up with flowers though, I tend to pick up cute kids shoes, skates etc when I see them....
oh, and when we had guests for Easter dinner yesterday someone sat on an egg hidden in the sofa, so yes, we're still finding the forgotten eggs too!!

Congratulations to your husband on his award. What an honour! The rain boots on the fence are adorable and so colourful. There are so many pretty rainboots on the market now it makes it hard to choose. Pamela
What a beautiful photo of your son and the view out the window! Sounds like you have had an amazing week! I'm happy for you and I know you're proud! ♥
Hello,
Congrats! Your son is a cutie and love those colorful boots!
~ Gabriela ~
Loved the boots and the photos looking out the window. We hid 24 eggs and after number 18 we spent a lot of time looking for the others..lol..
Tammy, you are not alone. I count the eggs so that I'll know how many I am hiding. I hide the eggs, then forget where I hid them and how many I hid. LOL!!!
Rain boots are so fun! I have the polka-dot pair from Target, bought them last year and they are great! Congratulations to you fella...that's GREAT!
Love the rain boot "flower pots"!!! Great views from the top of the world. Congrats to the Doc!!!
Congratulations to the good doctor!!! You cannot get better than that! Nice to know he has a wonderful wife who backs him, too!
Glad to see you are back.
I love the rubber boots nailed to the fence, that is SO CUTE!
Love and hugs, Cindy
Congratulations to hubby...what a great honor. I know you are proud of him!
I love all the boots, especially the Burberry! I also love that first picture!
So glad you had a wonderful Easter. Are your kids on a break now?
XO,

Proud, proud, proud of you husband, you should be! Love the photo of your son. congratulations. Love all the boots. I remember when my mother would make us wear boots and we would H A T E it and insisted no one else's mom made them wear boots. Now they are a fashion statement. LOL.
Oh I need new boots too. Even if we have no rain some days, the boots protect me from all creepy things at the edge of our property..snakes, nesting bees and who knows what else lurks under the leaves..I love the red one's...
beautiful photo of your son on top of the world!
Best Wishes..
We just can't put the rainboots up here in stormy TX! Even had to hunt eggs indoors yesterday! Still storming today, too.
So happy for your Doc! Love the photo of your sweet son, too.
BTW, did you know you won the giveaway over at Stacy's Shabby Cottage?!? WooHoo for you!

I do love a funky pair of rainboots.I've got a red polka dot pair and with the weather we are having at the moment, they're going to get plenty of use.Thanks for stopping by my blog..xx
Those boots filled with flowers along that picket fence, are so freakin' cute! And of course, the other pairs are nothing to "sneeze at" either!
Love the rain boots on the fence, so pretty and colorful. And the other boots are beautiful too, I have the polka-dot pair, I bought them at Shoe Depot and they are comfy. I'm your newest follower. ;)

Hey Tammy...I have rain boots that are black and white houndstooth...they are pretty flashy! Great photos of your son. Congrats to your husband...and you too. He couldn't have done it without you. Have a great week...~Ann
I'm so diggin those rain boots on the fence. Too cute! I bought an old pair of rainboots a couple years back. I display them with flowers on my drop-leaf antique table in my foyer. They get so many compliments, and they're just plain jane. Love the idea of doing different colors though.
Congrats to your husband! Awesome.

PS...will get those answers to you soon! Your posts reminded me. :0)
I'm in love with the red boots with the bow. I've lived in my Hunter boots for the past 6 months-I'm ready to stow them away for a bit.

LOVE those boots on the fence!!!
I have always wanted a cute pair of these boots , but have never gotten any. They are darling aren't they!
I know! I understand, I can NOT WAIT to finally be in the new little house. We have lived in this house for almost 20 yearsand I don't like it. It has never been "me". Always just made do with everything. I am so excited to finally decorate with the colors and things I LOVE.
Hopefully we will both be settled soon!
Have a pretty day!
Kristin
I love all the pretty rain boots and especially the flowers in the rain boots!
Growing flowers in rain boots is the cutest thing I've seen in years.
