First I am a mother of two sons, Chad 35 and Ryan 32. Through these beautiful sons, I have been blessed with two beautiful daughter-in-laws, Kelli and Erin. As a result of these beautiful wives comes three beautiful grands, Connor first and the only one for fives years. Then, Kelli and Chad blessed me with another beautiful grandson, Cooper, who is now three. Ryan and Erin blessed me with my first granddaughter, Presley, and now Presley has brother, Harper, who is 2. My blog is really all about family. The reason I chose Magnolia Memories as my blog title is I am from Mississippi! I love Magnolia's. Memories is something that I make everyday. I still have my mother who will be 89 on her birthday in April. My life is centered around my beautiful family. Life is GOOD!

COOPER'S FIRST BIRTHDAY PARTY

COOPER AND CONNORCooper's first birthday party!!
His mother chose Mickey Mouse as the theme. They have just
come back from Disney World. This is Uncle Ryan and his
Aunt Erin. He had the best time eating his cake, when it came
time to take it he pitched the biggest fit. You can tell by his
face and hands,he loved his birthday cake.
It was such a wonderful party.
It is hard to believe that he his one year old.

TABLE SETTING WITH MAGNOLIA DISHES

I LOVE MAGNOLIA'S (OUR STATE FLOWER)
I have had this set of Magnolia Dishes for sometime.
They just always make the prettiest table and I
love to change up my table. My daughter-in-law had
a set and she gave me hers. I think I
ended up with about fifteen plates. I would
like to share this table setting with you. Can't wait
for Christmas settings

THOUGHTS ON THIS PINK BAG

Beverly at How Sweet the Sound is hosting Pink Saturday.

This is a pink purse that I have just fallen in love with..I can't decide if it is worth the cost or not. I may wait until it goes on sale.

Looking for that right kitchen touch

Saparna Canisters
These canisters I purchased from
Southern Accents & Gifts. The salt and pepper
holders are from Southern Living and the Mocha
plate is a piece by Mary Naylor it was the
least expensive from TJ Maxx. So I have
arranged all together and this is how it all
goes together. I am not one to match I love
to mix and match in every room.

New Touch To My Kitchen

This black based glass candle stand I purchased
at Dirt Cheap this week. The regular price was
$39.99 at 50% off. It adds that special something
to my table. At that price I just had to purchase.
The great thing is that it was not chipped or didn't need
any super glue. "It Was All Together"
That is something I don't find very often..
