Bobbie ♥

*My name is Bobbie Jo. My maiden name is Patt. I am a 34 year old wife and mother of four. Christina-Lyn (TT)16, Antonio (AJ) 14, Tyler (Ty-Ty) 10and Dakota (Kody Bear) 7. My husband Rod and I have been together for 14yrs (Feb 11, 2007). We have been married for almost 7yrs (Aug 10, 2007). I love helping others. Making them happy, makes me happy. I always say "Don't do to others, what you don't want done to you". I have many hobbies. Spending time with my family. Designing web pages and working with graphics and artwork. I love to decorate. Mainly Victorian and Primitive/Folkart. My newest hobby is finding out the history of my 256yrs old house. I love to listen to Newage/Ambient style music. It is music for my soul. I listen to the 80's sometimes. Reminds me of my teen days. I also like some oldies. My childhood music. I come from a big family. I was born in New Jersey. I grew up mainly in Pennsylvania. I just lost my Dad on November 22, 2006. I am working on making a slideshow to tribute his life. I have three brothers and one stepbrother. I have one sister and one stepsister. My dream is to go visit the wonderful lands of Ireland. Ever since I could remember, I wanted to travel there. I really don't know why, but I have a strong feeling that I should go. Besides the veiw and all the history, there is something else that I think I will find once I go. I keep thinking it might be my family history. One day I hope to findout. I am hoping to find old friends on this site and make new ones. I make changes to this page everyday. Check back often for new pictures and more. Hugs!

Farewell Charlie
It was hard to say farewell Charlie. Because of you were married to me. I knew you when I was eighteen. There was just something in me you had seen. I married you when I was twenty one. It is something I was glad I had done. You gave me four children to be proud of. You also you showed me your love. I think of calling you. But I know it is something I can not do. But I am glad I talked you before you passed away. I know there is a part of you in my memories always. ~Nancy (My stepmom)

Over the past few years, I have see some wonderful Artwork, but one Artist has changed my passion for art. I wasn't much of a buyer for art until I saw the beautiful work of Thomas Kinkade. His art seems to come alive when you look at it. I feel like I could step right into his paintings. The colors, the way he shows lights and all the detail he puts in his work is amazing. I have a collection of Thomas Kinkade's paintings in a slideshow to show you how wonderful his gift is.
Thomas Kinkade was born in 1958 and grew up in Placerville,California, (near Sacramento) with his mother, older sister andyounger brother. His family knew at a very young age that Thom was agifted artist.The Painter of LightThomas Kinkade is widely regarded as one of the foremost livingpainters of light. He uses techniques of the late nineteenth centuryAmerican painters, known as Luminists. His paintings radiate light,inviting viewers to bask in the nostalgia of earlier, less stressful times.Thom’s work emphasizes cozy cottages, country churchyards,cityscapes, and Western landscapes. Each setting is accompanied bythat special “Kinkade Glow”, which Thom attributes to “soft edges, awarm palette and an overall sense of light”.Thomas Kinkade is a gregarious man with a great sense of humor. Heis left-handed, about six feet tall and of Scottish/Irish descent. Adevout Christian, Kinkade readily acknowledges God’s hand in his lifeand is well aware of his many blessings including his wife, Nanetteand his four daughters, Merritt, Chandler, Winsor, and Everett. Thompays loving tribute to his family by hiding their name or initials in hispaintings. Thom also pays honor to his friends and co-workers bypainting in their initials or names in streetcars, license plates or evensignposts.Thom states, “I try to create paintings that are a window for theimagination. If people look at my work and are reminded of the waythings once were or perhaps the way they could be, then I’ve done myjob”.

(2-25-2007) I have been getting a few "Spam" comments today. I will delete them once I see them. Nothing against the person who sent them. The "Click here or Click Now" Buttons can be a bad thing. If you see a comment like this that came from me, please let me know because I would never send these "Spam" things and it also meant my account has been hacked into. Thank You!
