Our trip was so much fun. Sharon and I left Friday night at 6 and stopped in Greenville Ohio for the night. We were up at 6 the next morning and arrived to our destination at 11. We took are time and saw some great landscape. Indiana was ahead of us with blooming flowers and lots of leaves on the trees. Temps on Saturday was 82 and the sun was shining all day. We saw areas of heavy flooding during our roadtrip but it was better on they way back home.

We went to Vickys shop "This and That" which was prim wonderful and she let us walk around her yard which was great. Can you believe I didn't take a single picture! I was so caught up in the wonder of it all I never thought about my camera. Then we left to go to Painted Pony. Her shop was fantastic and she was so sweet and took us on a tour of her house...which was prim heaven. My kind of place! We also stopped at a couple of antique malls. And ate too much but I think we laughed it off...or walked it off!

If you ever get to Indiana the countryside is so beautiful and I want to go back.

Have a great week everyone!

Plowing













Love to watch this renewal time of year. Corn will go in soon. This is the north side view of my house. Smells good too! I can hear those corn stalks blowing in the wind already!

Have a great weekend! Welcome May!

Painted Pony Primitives







Shelley sells these great sheet sets too. Tell her I sent you!



Has anyone ever been to her shop in Mitchell Indiana? I have and Shelley is awsome. Her open house is this weekend and me and my sister are going. We are leaving Friday night after work and spending the night at Holiday Inn Exprss. There are four other open houses within a few miles of each other and will check those out too. Check out her website Painted Pony Primitives, a picture trail too.

Indiana is such a beautiful state and I love to drive the countryside

Enjoy your evening

Warm weather today!

































































I am so happy that today has been beautiful! Now it is 68 degrees, the sun is out and is my kind of day. Flowers are popping out and the bees are noticing.















I even hung laundry on the line to dry and it didn't take long to dry.















Two of my grankids spent the night and we have been outside playing most of the time. Mom just picked them up so now time to make potato salad for tomorrow. Tonight is my other 2 grandkids baptism so we will be attending that. Very special evening!














Hope everyone has enjoyed the day.

I can't figure out why such funny spaces between these pictures. Back space doesn't make a differance.



















































I was walking around my yard and snapped some pictures for you that show my signs of Spring. It still has been cold a rainy but is suppose to warm up during the night. Maybe I can wash windows which is my least favorite chore but I like the results when it is finished. What do you use to wash windows? I usually use Windex with paper towel but if you use newspaper it really eliminates the streaking







Enjoy your Friday evening and weekeend
