Singer Two :)
Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Aug 12th 2010
Remember the other day when I blogged about combining an old Singer sewing machine legs with the table top from a child-sized table? Well, I had to do something with the matching Singer legs. Right?
This is where Mr. Lucky comes in.
He very graciously offered to build me a tabletop. Ok, so there might [...]
Little blast from the past

Junior – Senior Prom 1985
You can tell by the big hair that this is from the mid-80’s huh? I am not in this photograph because I graduated in 1984 but…. that cutie pie on the far right is none other than my darling husband, Mr. Lucky. Just in front of him, in the white dress [...]
Happy Father’s Day!!
Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Jun 20th 2010
My husband is a wonderful man, warm and caring – and he is an incredible Dad to our girls. There have been times since my own Dad passed away that I’ve watched him interact with our daughters and ended up with tears pouring from my eyes. The relationship he has with our girls is as [...]
Heading home
Dory @ Lucky Dorito on May 10th 2010
We came.
We saw.
We conquered.
And now….
we head home (with over 1200 photos).
Matters of the heart
Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Feb 17th 2010
There are many things in life that I tend to take for granted…. I expect the light to come on when I flip the switch, the food inside the refrigerator to be cold, and the water to get hot in the shower (eventually). Those are relatively simple things – all dependent on electricity and my [...]
Happy Birthday to my Mr. Lucky
Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Feb 6th 2010
My husband, (the incomparable Mr. Lucky Dorito) and I share February as our birthday months. Today, that sweet man of mine celebrates his 42nd birthday.
I consider myself to be quite blessed in my marriage – the Lord sent the perfect match for me in my direction at a time when I was, luckily, old enough [...]
Sugar Overload
Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Feb 4th 2010
This year was by far one of the best birthdays…. definitely one of the SWEETEST.
My precious friend Shannon sent my this fun package:
At first glance, I wasn’t quite sure what I was looking at…. the treasure was well hidden:
But when I peeled back the *hay*, underneath were some serious YUMMMIES:
Can you say DIVINE?
Mmmmm, mmmmm, good.
Then…..
Midmorning [...]
Houseguests
Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Jan 11th 2010
Mr. Lucky and I have been married for over fifteen years and that entire time, we’ve lived at least 2 hours from our nearest family members. Over the years, my MIL and my sister Lena have visited at different times – others have come too, but not as often. (My mom came when both of [...]
Manly Magic
Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Jan 5th 2010
While out Christmas shopping, Mr. Lucky and I found a wonderful soft and snugly-feeling blanket that reminded us both of my magic sleeping blankie. It was charcoal grey and bigger than mine. We ooh’ed and ahh’ed and then we both walked away from it. An aisle or two later, I decided to go back for [...]
Mr. Lucky
Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Dec 9th 2009
I am bursting with pride.
After a long three years of working on nights and weekends, after full days of clinical practice (and being a full time dad and husband) – my husband has finally completed the program for his Doctorate of Physical Therapy through Regis University.
I just don’t even have the words to share with [...]
