My favorite nooks...

These are a few of my favorite things...

Great-Grandpa and Grandpa's

treasures that were passed down to my husband...

hand carved candlesticks,

old-fashion camera (that used real film),

a football and helmet worn by his dad in Jr.High,

and two bowling pins that my hubby won in a old bowling league.

Simon's first Piggy Bank

that will start holding our Haiti Fund.

My friend, Kristi, helped me with this mantle set-up...

grandpa's binoculars &

his old pipes

are Dave's favorites.

Had to show the beach wood

at the base of the fireplace.

We brought this home from our Honeymoon

in Carmel.

Everywhere I look

I am reminded of sweet memories

of my loved ones

and all the treasures they cherished.

I love them

and wouldn't want my home any other way!
