Flowers to trade in the flower swap

Trumphet vine

 This is what the blooms look like

 This is the Prariefire Flowering Crab apple just before it fully bloomed

This one is a shrub that some have called false rose. I am cleaning it out and planting them separate as they were not taken care of and were over grown

I took these pics at night so they are pretty rough. looking but they are long stems and leaves with little dainty pink fluffy flowers on them.

 

 

Also these iris in different colors you wont know until they bloom

Abducted Missing Michigan Mom Jessica Heeringa Police seek information please share

I have been too busy to blog for awhile, But I read that the story of a Missing girl near where I live is not being broadcast on stations outside of our area as much as It should be. I read that With Today being the 7th Day that she is missing, It is important to keep the story in the media as much as possible. I thought maybe us bloggers could help get this out there. Each one of us has the chance to reach thousands of people through social media that can see her picture and the picture of the man that is wanted for questioning concerning her abduction.

Here is the information I know: You can get all information on her FAcebook page. https://www.facebook.com/FindJessicaHeeringa?fref=ts

Jessica was Abducted from her place of work on Sternberg Road in Norton Shores Michigan
From witness testimony the above picture is what the man looks like that took her. Evidence shows that he may have waited outside her work , as if  waiting for the best time to take her. There were no cameras at the store she was working at but cameras from neighboring businesses caught his van on their cameras.
Jessica is a Mommy and her baby boy misses her as do her parents, Fiancé Family and Friends. Please share this story with your blog followers.  Copy and paste whatever you like to your own post if you have to. You can find more information on this story by Reading it on our local news stations here in Michigan. http://interactives.woodtv.com/photomojo/gallery/7136/140438/the-search-for-jessica-heeringa/composite-sketch/

Menu Plan January

Menu Plan for the month of January
My pet peeve is hearing, "whats for dinner" and having to scrounge around to see what were eating at the last minute. In effort to get away from that, I decided to make a whole month worth  of menus and shop for it all at once. It worked pretty good this past month. It gives us more time to hang out at night also.
In an effort to make a menu plan quickly, I decided to go with my husbands wishes and make a certain night of the week for a certain type of food. It was easy that way. Although I get bored with things being that uniform in life, His military side loves it. You can see from the menu this month I did not feel like getting all fancy. I knew we would be busy and I planned accordingly. This sometimes means Hamburger helper but that's okay. You don't have to be a chef.  I am busy February too so I am getting ready to make a months worth of menus at once again. I will try to post it. I like to look at menu Ideas to get ideas for what to cook so My mom sent me  a few months worth of menu plans that I can find other things on.

Emmy Rossum #SentimentalJourney Review oldies remakes including Pretty Paper by Willie Nelson

Emmy Rossum Sentimental Journey Out on Cd 1/29 /2013

Something that my husband and I have in common are a love of oldies music.  We have a collection that I am not sure many people our age would have. I was excited to get a copy of this Cd for review. Before I  agreed to review it, I looked Emmy up on Youtube and found this great Video. 

In my opinion, She does best at the slower songs on this album but  does a good job on all of them. In the first song, she reminded me of Doris Day. No one can sing Pretty paper like Willie Nelson, if your a fan, but don't take that out on her. She did a great Job!  It sure does look like she had fun making the videos. She fits the part in the old clothes so well. The background vocals are great and the band did a great job with the music. It takes you back in time even if you have never been there!
