My Spring Anthro Purse


Spring is in the air...
...at least down here in Florida.


Time to think about pastels and posies.




I actually bought this purse at Anthropologie before Christmas.
It was on sale and I thought that Kate would either love it... or not.

She didn't love it.
But I did.

 So, instead of returning it... I kept it.
It's cheerful and springy....don't you think?

fun!
:)

Happy Thoughts to You!


... there is less time to post or visit these days but I know you understand.
 Thank you for all your comments and emails...
... your prayers for Mom and words of support and encouragement.
I will catch up with correspondence soon!

    Laura your bag is so beautiful! Full of the joys of spring, yet a wintertime buy - lovely contradiction! :-) I meant to say I gave you a blog award as one of my favourite picks when an award was passed to me. Just a little fun though so don't fret about taking part :-) My well wishes are with you, your Mum and all of your family.
