I have a Crush on Henri Lou

I admit it- I have a crush on Henri Lou. I was smitten the first time I met Henri several years ago in Oxford Miss. A friend of my daughters, who happened to be a California girl, gifted  all the girls a Henri lou™ bracelet for graduation. (thank you Kendall Caldwell)  When she  gave me one as well-  that was it! I was hooked! I called the designer the next week and got the scoop-  Reagan and her husband while vacationing stopped through the ghost town of Calico, CA and visited an old saddle shop filled with leather and Western wears. Run by a man named Henry and his wife, Lou (hence that name), the shop inspired Reagan’s first hand-knotted bracelet. And the rest goes from there -- inspired jewelry line, perfect ! Love that a saddle was the catalyst for creative inspiration and boy has it paid off! www.henriloujewelry.com
Thank you Reagan! You might not remember me.. the girl from Mississippi who called you that day- but I remember you! Thanks for the great bracelets ! www.henriloujewelry.com

Little Lamb and J Rod Photography

 I met a photographer yesterday- Jana Rodriques . I was on my way to the stables and saw such an adorable sight.  She was set up in a park area near our home and had a little lamb! She was kind enough to share these photos. My heart melts at the sight of a pony so I was in a puddle with the little lamb. What a great idea and fabulous photos! Thank you Jana!  J Rod Photographer- for info contact- photography.rod@gmail.com and visit her FB page- https://www.facebook.com/jrodphoto

The Lamb

BY WILLIAM BLAKE

Little Lamb who made thee 

Dost thou know who made thee 

Gave thee life & bid thee feed. 

By the stream & o'er the mead; 

Gave thee clothing of delight, 

Softest clothing wooly bright; 

Gave thee such a tender voice, 

Making all the vales rejoice! 

         Little Lamb who made thee 

         Dost thou know who made thee 

         Little Lamb I'll tell thee, 

         Little Lamb I'll tell thee!

He is called by thy name, 

For he calls himself a Lamb: 

He is meek & he is mild, 

He became a little child: 

I a child & thou a lamb, 

We are called by his name. 

         Little Lamb God bless thee. 

         Little Lamb God bless thee.

Michael Grogan Star Boxes™

He has done it again! Equestrians love Michael Grogan's Star Boxes™ and these are no exception. The first two photos in this line up are reminiscent of garden folly. While we dream of warmer days and yummy garden paths this star box is at home at Chanticleer Gardens. Whimsical,  genius, and imaginative they are made from antique architectural pieces that can include anything from coveted weather vanes, famous finials or antique wooden chock blocks from Fire stations. My heart skips a beat every time and especially for #9;!  Thank You Michael Grogan for sharing these with me - ( photo credits Stegall Imagery) for Chanticleer Garden in Pennsylvania- info.www.chanticleergarden.org for info on available boxes  - grogan interior design-jackson ms
