Tears of Joy

The boys and I ran to Wally World to pick up a few things this afternoon that Target did not have. I decided to stop off in the magazine isle. I have been stalking it for the past week in anticipation.
 The Feb edition of Romantic Homes hit stands!! The January edition said to keep out till Jan 15 so I was surprised to find the Feb edition today. Why on earth did I bring home four copies?
Because of this!! I was grinning from ear to ear and trying hard to hold back tears of joy while standing in Wally World. Beth Livesay of Romantic Homes contacted me back in October to ask for pictures. I was not sure if she was going to use them or not. I have never been featured before by a magazine so I was not sure how it all worked. I figured it could go either way. I was beyond thrilled when I quickly flipped thru and saw that she did feature From My Front Porch To Yours. Thank you so very much Beth! I am truly honored to be featured along with such talented ladies to include my bloggy pal Anita from over at Cedar Hill Ranch!!
Thank you also to all of you for following along and making blogging so much fun and thank you Mama for giving me your decorating passion! Also thank you to The Hubster as well as The Papa & The Nana for always helping me to accomplish my visions to share.
