I knew there was a reason I wasn't weeding this summer! So my creative grandchildren could make darling weed houses! I wanted to just climb in curl up and go to sleep. Mamma Lia and the Holligans came over yesterday , she added her wonderful head to the gang! (her hubby's in Tenn. this wk. Boy, is he going to be surprised.)
These two cousins have been fast friends since birth.It was nice sitting out in the yard and enjoying it instead of just looking at it as I go in the house and thinking I just really don't care.Cozy and Annika trying to catch a chicken.
what cute pictures!! I love the house of weeds!Lia looks so cute...I really didn't expect everyone to look so good. I imagine when it starts to grow out it will be harder to keep :-) take care Penny
What wonderful memories those little ones will have of their house in the weeds! I weeded ALL DAY yesterday, and pulled sucker trees out of the ponds. I loved it - and you and your Becky and her family we well and truly prayed for.
This morning, Amanda de Lange and a handful of volunteers, went to what we call the “Big O” in Xi’An China (otherwise known as the main orphanage) to see if there were any babies she could take back to her foster home. You see, Amanda doesn’t go looking for the cutest, healthiest babies they have. She goes with eyes and heart open to find the sickest, neediest babies in the orphanage. The babies who are not likely to receive the kind of necessary attention they need just to survive their first few months. Out of all of China’s unwanted ones, she seeks out those who need her the most. That’s why I love this picture so much. This morning, these babies were just seven of many at the orphanage, but not anymore. From here on out these babies will receive round the clock love and attention, nutrition, medical care and almost rock-star like status among Amanda’s fans and supporters all around the world. Once they have been nursed back to health, Amanda does what the orphanage often does...
This is the view from our front porch on a cold, snowy day. Lucky us we moved back in time for the coldest, snowiest winter in decades! It is beautiful but, after a month of it, it's starting to get alittle old. We are blessed to have the nicest neighbor ever. He has regularly plowed our drive after each snowfall, I don't know what we would have done without him, and thank-you never seems like enough. Any ideas? This week the schools were all closed, it'll be late release this year. Of course we've found plenty to do inside. This has been Jim's first full week home in months and he's enjoying it to the fullest. The garage is looking great and things are being organized. I feel no compulsion to ever finish unpacking, my cabinets and closets are full so the rest can stay in the boxes. After fighting for a month to keep the goats water filled and unfrozen, we found out about these heated buckets and rushed out to buy one. What a relie...
I'd like to introduce you to our new front deck! I still look out the window and can't believe its done and we have stairs again and it's so beautiful! Thanks Mike from the bottom of our hearts, your awesome! If you can imagine a downside to it being finished, there is a little one. No more Natalie and Conner everyday.
