“that listen, arms that hug and hold, a love that’s never-ending, and a heart that’s made of gold.” - Unknown

As a child, we visited my Aunt, who lived in Salt Lake City. It is incredible to me the influence she had on my life. Her home had a bay window in the kitchen. I loved to sit around the breakfast table and feel the coziness and beauty of the windows covered with frilly curtains. Whenever my sister and I built a house to play in, it always had a breakfast nook. When we built my dream home, it had a breakfast nook. Downstairs in my Aunts basement used as a family room, she had a Mexican Sombrero above the couch. I wanted to have a Mexican Sombrero on my wall today. As you can see in the picture above, my husband and I flew to Guaymas, Mexico, and we purchased a Mexican Sombrero, which hung above our couch for many years. I will be eternally grateful for Aunts and Uncles whom I admired and loved.
