Fifi , Romantic Country~And Lucas♥

Have you visited Fifi recently?
She's so busy..she's involved with all her magazines and MOVING..moving to Mystic  CT.
I was trying to remember which movies were made there apart from Mystic Pizza..And a whole list came up~
They will be lucky to have her~
The latest issue of Romantic Country is out~I do love that magazine..

Such pretty pics..ideas..links..stories..

I was pleased and flattered that Fifi included my take on fun little Christmas stockings..

Thank you Fifi..everything looks so much better after you have touched it:)

It is so nice to be able to contribute..I learn something new every time..

Like this blue background..after I made the stocking and sent her the photos..she said why not try a blue background..?

Look..It's just right..Never would I have picked blue.

She just knows what works.

Merçi Fifi encore une fois.

She has a new magazine coming out ..

If you visit you will hear all about it..and see little snippets .

She's a master at BEAU..making things always looking so right and pretty.

Which brings me to this darling letter I received in the mail..with a self-addressed stamped envelope for a reply..to his school:)

Lucas is our eldest grandson.  He is 7.We fell on our knees and cried when he came to Florida by plane 6 yrs ago and walked towards us  at the airport..We had left 2 weeks before..and he was still crawling.. beautifully I might add..but crawling..two weeks later they take the plane.. we meet them..and he walks towards us!:)

Fall on our knees:)

We met him first ..of the 4 alphabet boys.. ~

Un vrai coup de ♥

He still is..

They all are now..but he still is .It never leaves us.

Imagine my sheer elation at receiving this letter in the mail..

Even the ARRIÈRE  GRAND -MÈRE  cracked me up..

This is what the letter said)

Dear Great Grandmother;

I would like to know if there was a park at your school.

I would like to know if you had running water.

Where was your school?

I love you very much.

Your grandson Lucas.

That I loved getting his letter..and that I loved him Gros Gros Gros comme le ciel.
