Ladybug Creek: MacKenzie-Childs Children's Enamelware

I am married to the most wonderful man who I've known more years than I have not! We recently celebrated our 41 years of marriage.
Our oldest son is our business partner. We farm in Mexico, growing papaya, honeydew and person-size watermelon. We travel back and forth to Mexico to take care of our business. This son is married and has two children. He lives in Mexico to oversee the business.
Our middle son works for Clinical Pathology Lab. His wife is a doctor and recently opened her cosmetic dermatology clinic in Houston.
Our youngest son is a realtor in McAllen, Texas, near where we live. He loves his work and his business is steadily growing.
We lived in Mexico for three years to get our farming operation going. It was an exciting time for us!
My hobbies are genealogy, home decorating and cooking. I love blogging!
I am so very blessed to have a loving family... not only the family my husband and I created, but also my family of friends.
Fall and winter months are when I enjoy blogging the most. Seasons change and I love keeping up with the change in my home.
I have had some amazing experiences with my faith in Christ and I truly feel that God is always with me. I try to live my life the way God would have me live it.

MacKenzie-Childs Children's Enamelware - What a find!

I love MacKenzie-Childs!

I've bought this set for my own grandchildren. I think they're so cute. A set today will cost about $66.

I have a booth at a consignment shop... which of course

allows me to spend some time shopping. I came across this set for $10.

This is the MacKenzie-Childs label.

I love it! (oops! Think I already said it.)

But don't you think I was one lucky shopper the day I bought this?

Now I call myself a "rescuer".

I pledge to "rescue" MacKenzie-Childs Children's Enamelware.

(Now I won't feel guilty with my purchases. I am actually collecting these for my grandchildren for a wall grouping.)

This Friday I will be linking to
