    Blessings to all of you "Beach Loving Angels" out there! I loved viewing all of your posts and photos.  Somehow I knew that women who are enamored with the ocean are women to get to know.  Hope I can join you for some inspiration sharing.  Enjoy your weekend... love your self... love your life!

    Welcome Nancy.  Newcomers get a complementary pair of flip flops so here you go.

    When is DH coming home Mary Lou, is he in recovery mode? 

    I'm no good at listing people because I'm always afraid of forgetting someone.  So beach hugs to all.  May your seas be calm.  Unless of course you like sailing.Wink

    Hi Nancy

    Welcome to the Beach.  I'm sure Sahalie, Spar, Julz of the Beach and others will be by to extend their warm welcomes to you.  Here's a beach chair selected just for you...

    Oh my, what delightful flip flops.  I'd like the two different coloured green ones please.  But Nancy, you get first choice (whispering, choose anything but green, choose anything but greenWink) of course.

    These are just the floor display...there are plenty of green ones in inventory.  Eveyrone can have whatever color they fancy.

    Size 14 is perfect.  I'll only need one shoe if they are that big though.Wink

    Hey Beach Babes, I just got an invitation from some friends to take a trip this weekend so I probably won't be around until Monday morning.  I hope everyone has a safe and fun weekend too.

    Yep, lots of snow and it is still cold and raining cats and dogs and little fishes. Jazzy girl, I will miss you this weekend but have tons of fun.  My grandson is here for the weekend so he will use the computer a lot so I probably won't get it much either.

    LOL, I can just see Sharon trying to boogie board on a size 14 flip flop, just hold on to each side and you'll ride the waves on in.

    Welcome Nancy, hope you stay on the beach and ride the waves, soak up the sun, and enjoy good company and pretty pictures.  Lots of laughter, love, and hugs.

    Hey, Julz of the beach, come on and take a walk on the sandy shores with me.

    Sahalie, got a new craft to show you tomorrow on the other thread.  It is unique.

    Faith, you are going to be so jealous when I post a picture on my new checkbook my daughter got me, not only is it polka dot but it actually closes and nothing can fall out.

    Here is  3 pictures I took yesterday on the field trip.  Busy fun.

    Here they were pretending to be judges and then president of the United States with painted faces.

    My granddaughter is the dark headed one and she was not a happy eater cause she wanted me to sit by her and there was no room so I stood up to eat.

    Everyone have a super great weekend.  I am going to get cozy in front of the fireplace after I cook a pot of chili.

    Hugs to all

    oh happy day, happy, happy, happy day!!

    more new friends for our beach: yipppppeeee!!

    i think one of the hardest things about these 'boards' is that there are SOOOO many choices.

    when you're first getting acquainted it's hard to sort out where things are.....

    then when i'd find a conversation/area that i 'liked' or related to, i'd forget where i found it.

    welcome welcome lucky, we await your inspiration

    i've had a very grand day indeed.

    today was the ultimate of the ultimates. i was on the 'BIG' stage.

    and get a load of this:

    i had 3, count them THREE professionals assigned to my every need:

    1. sound guy

    1. tech/computer guy (the screen was probably about 20 feet high, seriously)

    1. light guy

    Two weeks ago in VA I had to track down an extension to get to the electricity

    Today I have 3 men behind the screen making everything work.

    I have now been officially spoiled for life. Seriously spoiled.

    Glad to hear from you Mary Lou..... prayers for Michael/Mr. Mary Lou, continued recovery.

    Dream, it's always great to see your quite humorous post.

    Now I can't remember who had the black n white polka dot bikini volley ball player

    (that was me of course, featured in the pic! LOL) Jazz might have been yours.

    Made me smile and I do want that cute little purse-ette.

    Have a great evening.

    Have one workshop tomorrow then repack for the drive home.

    Big hugs, rest peacefully on those hammocks.

    You guys/gals/goofballs......

    We've seriously fallen short for Coonie's birthday extravaganza.

    I know I've seen some bling and that yacht w/the helicopter, but I don't think we've gotten her whole list as of yet.

    She wanted salty snacks!!

    Tomorrow's the big day and I'll be up to my ears in teachers.

    Well, just a quick pop  in before I head out on  a weekend of fun craft shop/quilt shop hopping. Beach Angels, I hope you have a wonderful day!

    Mary Lou, Hey to you!

    Sahalie, the morning picture is in your honor for your oyster weekend.  I hope you have a wonderful and successful weekend.  I'm so glad to see you back at the beach and so sorry that you may have felt that you didn't belong.   You are one of the original beach posters so YOU BELONG!!!

    Sparbiedoll, so did you gret all that snow they were saying you were going to get????  How odd that you get the snowstorm of the year when its already spring.  Crazy weather.  I guess this is what global warming looks like.  ;)

    Toyful, happy good morning to you.  Prayers continue on your behalf.

    Marejo, good morning to you. 

    Luckylady, welcome to the beach!

    Anna, maybe you can share some more pictures with us.  Always fun to see what everyone else holds special.

    Well, gotta go and finish getting ready.  Hugs around the beach.
