beyond cinderella

In so many ways!

Yesterday, my cousin, Tracie, came over to visit and see my new home. Although Tracie and I don’t get to spend a lot of time together, when we do get the opportunity to visit we just pick up right where we left off without skipping a beat. I love that! Tracie is such a beautiful, special, woman with a heart of GOLD. She and I understand each other very well because we share many of the same crazy family stories. Tracie’s Grandmother and my Father were brother and sister, so we know “the codes” of the Vezie family which make for some very interesting conversations to say the least.

In addition to being a beautiful lady, Tracie is very creative, and makes the most beautiful handmade scarfs I’ve ever seen.  I love, love, love anything handmade. I just think it is amazing when someone can take raw material and turn it into something beautiful, like these scarfs. And, guess what? Yesterday I was the most fortunate recipient of not one, not two, but three of Tracie’s beautiful, handmade scarfs. Just look at how beautiful these scarfs are:

What woman wouldn’t want one of these beautiful, fashion statements to wear ? I think they are so beautiful I can’t even decide which color I like best.  I think they even look beautiful hanging on the wall. What do you think?

After I recovered from the excitement of receiving the beautiful scarfs, Tracie and I spent the afternoon sharing family stories, looking at old family albums, and laughing…OMG, how we laughed…:) We had lunch, and  then just talked and talked and talked. It was so much fun reconnecting with Tracie and we decided we need to not let too much time pass before we get together again for another fun-filled afternoon. Such a beautiful afternoon!

Thank-you Tracie for the scarfs and for bringing so much beauty into my day. XXOO Cindy
