Cleaning the garage is a horrible job but this little guy made it all worth it. I was trying to get this suitcase cleaned out an ready for storage and he was determined to be in it! It kept him entertained for a long time.


I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! It was at my house this year and I loved every
Minute of it. I am so Thankful for my great family!!

What can I say . . .  everything looks good on/in black!  Most of the clothes in my closet are black.  Most of my shoes too!  I was so excited about black and couldn't wait for it to get here.  However, I wanted to find something special for this post.  Not your ordinary, run of the mill, everyday black . . .

 A few weeks ago was the Kurban Bayram here in Turkey.  Terry and I stayed in Istanbul and did the "tourist" thing.   While walking around SultanAhmet we happened upon this grand machine.

 If there was an edge. . . it had leather fringe!  I was wondering if, at high speed, the tassels on the handlebars whip the driver?   I am sure this baby gets taken out on the open road, regularly. . . if the highway isn't a parking lot.

Of course, this ensemble wouldn't be complete without skull flag and 'coon tail!  (Notice the "evil eye" charm!)   I was working fast, trying to get these pictures before the owner caught me -- but Terry said "Slow down, I am sure whoever owns this fascinating piece of equipment, would be very flattered!"  I am sure he is right. . .

Thanks for stopping by -- Love, Love Sheryl

Hello everyone! I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
I am very pleased to announce that in writing this post on my new ipad!! I saved up some shoot money and also got some extra money in for my birthday so this is what I bought :) I am so excited about using it!
The images you see are two of my favorites. Pardon the first pictures quality. It was taken on the iPad. One of the girls I babysit on Wednesday's is now taking Karate lessons. She really wanted me to take her picture and what do you know! Her uniform was the right color! I think she looks adorable.
The next is a self portrait of my friend Courtney and I. I used my canon rebel XS for that one.The picture was taken while we were on a boat headed to Wilmington for my 20th Birthday. Courtney is an old soul but very bubbly! I call her Squirrely because she is so full of life and always running around helping others. She and our friend, Katie, have helped get me through two very hard years! Im so glad i have them!
Before I go I'd like to know, what you're thankful for this year? I have three things:
1. My God
2. Freedom
3. My family

Have a great week!!
