Plow?

Every Farmer in Lancaster has a plow...so I got this one for my son Dave...good luck Dave!

Color choice

I understand guys loving John Deere Green for farm equipment...but when you lay in bed at night this is not the color I want to see...

So I had to go with a more peaceful color...

Dave's shopping trip

Friday night Dave announced that he and his friend Amos were going shopping to look at tools...what ??? I'm exhausted from this move and it's not over yet..shopping???  Are you crazy!  I went to bed and dropped into a deep sleep.

Saturday morning I got up and went on the enclosed porch to open the shades and see if it was still raining. Some how Dave managed to go out the back door, into the garage and around the house to the front porch. At first I didn't see him. Then he said.."Happy Birthday Mom"!  Birthday?  Couldn't be the end of July already...and Oh My!  Love the "tools" he and Amos were shopping for!

Cracker Barrel is not my favorite place to eat because it just seems too much is on the plate, but I LOVE to sit on their rockers and just watch people. Now Dave and Amos can eat there because I can sit at home on my rocker, watch from my porch and eat a salad...Isn't it beautiful!

The rocker is sitting where our pellet stove will sit. The Amish cradle I bought for myself a week ago instead of the bureau I needed....life is fun when you just go for it and ignore the real.

Just have to show you my winter project

I live in the corner house on our road. This is the site I have out my kitchen window. This will just have to become a wall hanging for over my sofa! Maybe a winter scene with a courting buggy going through it.

Here is the sign just inside the entrance of the bridge

What were the chances of us getting this truck to head home in??

I can't say it was a good trip...3 days turned into 6 days...but we are here. In the 2 years we were in San Antonio I only saw one horse. It was pulling a fancy tourist cart in the center of town. I guess I expected to see real horses, like cowboy's and horses. Doesn't matter, we have lots of horses in Lancaster, Pa.! Here are my new neighbor's who live next door.

Cluck, Cluck...

Here's the fat happy Hen for this month. After looking at all the chicken's together, I've decided, somewhere down the line, that these gals will need to have some bling. I most likely won't get to print out and work on July's chicken until late July. We are pretty much down to living with totes for tables and plastic outside chairs.

Oh my...I'm a Great Grandma!

This is my oldest grandson, Jesse, with his new son, Julian. This little guy had a hard time arriving on April 6th, at only 4 1/2 lbs. Today he's much better and is now 7 lbs. It doesn't make me feel old. I feel renewed. We haven't had a baby in this family for 10 years. I hope to get to see him very soon. He lives in Texas! Daddy has joined the Army and will leave for boot camp in August.
