Cowgirl Up #50 with Stone Gable




Oh how fun, one of my favorite bloggers has joined us this week.  



Yeee-Haw!

Welcome to Week 50
of
The Cowgirl Up! 

Link Party!

1 Party, 5 Blogs

Our guest host this week is

 


Yvonne of Stone Gable !


Hello everyone...or should I say HOWDY Y'ALL! I'm puttin' on my cowboy boots and doing the two-step, happy dance of joy to be an honorary host at COWGIRL UP this week! 

Thanks so much Linsey, Anita, Amanda and Samantha... the ultimate, upscale cowgirls!

I'm Yvonne... a northern girl with a big southern heart! So I feel right at home with the Texas gals!



My blog is StoneGable.



StoneGable is the name of our home... yes, we name our homes!


StoneGable, the blog, was started as a way to connect, teach, and inspire my sweet daughter who had recently married and moved to a different state.  She would call and  ask, "Mommy, how do you do this... or what was in that recipe... or how shall I decorate so-and-so?" It was my idea to give her... and my future generation... a visual journal of all things home... all things StoneGable... and a big dose of love along with it!





After three years of blogging, StoneGable's goals have expanded to include my wonderful readers too! I want to create a place that inspires others to live beautifully and creatively, embracing life and learning to fill their homes with love and joy! When you come to StoneGable, I hope you feel like you are visiting a good  friend!





StoneGable is all about inspiring creative living...


If you come by for a visit on Sunday evening or Monday, you will find my weekly menu and ON THE MENU MONDAY, a weekly linky party for all foodies... and anyone who need some tasty inspiration! Come on over and join the culinary fun!





I am a big DYI'er! If you drop by StoneGable on Wednesday evening or Thursday, you can be inspired by great TUTORIALS TIPS AND TIDBITS! TTT is my second linky party!  I always say, "Show up and show off your creativity... any tidbit will do!"



Besides cooking and DIY projects, I have a passion for setting tables... 


decorating ...



and much more.  Stop by StoneGable...my front door is always open to friends... old and new!

Thanks again COWGIRLS!

Now let'start partying!!!
