Just Some Happenings Going On Round Here

Fall has had us hopping. Some fun, some not so much.  
 Josh had 4 teeth pulled, making room for those braces this month.
School activities, 4H getting started, tearing out to start remodeling the basement
and some more goodies.  Check out the pictures, they tell a better story.

Meet ~ The Crowder's ~ Mom & Tom ~ Bailey & Missy
in front of their antique & gift shop before the big fall sale
sadly this picture was taken about 15 min before a truck ran over and killed Missy
they rescued her around 12 years ago

Beautiful photos, as usual! Sorry to hear about Missy, but it is yet another rescued pet that no doubt had a wonderful life for as long as it lasted, my thoughts are with them, seems like a bad month everywhere for this stuff.

All those bags! Wow you have been busy, and they are really pretty!

You are one good photographer! How in the world do you manage to get so much done? Plus all that sewing? Do you sleep? I'm not working outside the home, am an empty-nester (for many years now), have a loving, supportive, helpful husband but must not have as many hours in the day as you do! ;o)

Thanks Ladies about my photos. I have always loved taking pictures and I am a visual learner. So when I started reading blogs I was drawn to those with pictures.

And it may look like I am doing a bunch of stuff, but not all that I want to do. Like you two gals, I really want to garden, always have. This coming spring will the first time in over ten years that I really can again.

And my house is NOT clean, is passable. That is why I have time. Just not on top of my list anymore.

You two inspire me, I love all that you do and write about. Please don't stop :)
