More pictures.......
I take soooo many pictures so I'm just going to put a few on here........I hope you enjoy them!!
We have a pond right beside our lane up to the house. I took this earlier in the spring. It was and is so pretty to drive by. We also love to swim in it during the summer but it's too deep to use in the wintertime. Glen likes to feed the fish. They are kinda' like his pets but he doesn't have any problems taking a fishing pole and catching some for supper sometimes!!! In the third picture you can see where they've come up to feed.

The first couple of pictures are still of the pond. We have three colors of lilies in one corner. I'll have to get some new pictures because they are blooming and are soooo pretty!!
The third picture is one of my special irises. This is a new one I got last year!! So pretty!!! The last picture is my Tahoe when Dae Lynn and I went to Wichita and got 20 ferns from Sam's!! We had also stopped at Lowe's and bought some other plants!! Coming home was something becuase we had plants EVERYWHERE in the Tahoe!!! Poor Karlie could barely move!!!

My son, Feyn, has decided to be Old MacDonald!! He's getting in the cattle business but had to buy some goats to keep the weeds down for the cattle.....then he had to buy a donkey because they're protective of the goats!!! He already had chickens and horses so it's a little different meaning to being a "farmer" at his house.
Glen and I went to feed them all one day when they were gone!! It was pretty cool!!

And lastly.......here's some pictures I took the weekend I went to my cousin's house with my aunt. We had sooo much fun!!
The first picture is of one of the streets we were trying to go down. The city had one way signs up but some people didn't see them. The second picture is of the garage sale signs that were on one corner. They were EVERYWHERE!!! We went to a flea market and had Melissa's vehicle packed!!! This is my Aunt Marva after a day of shopping!!! Believe me....she was crowded back there!!!

This is the little B and B that my cousin has in her basement. She had it all done because she thought her daughter was going to come and live with her while going to college but it didn't work out. She has it decorated with antiques and it's just beautiful!! It was so relaxing. We also had our own bathroom but I didn't get any pictures of it. She had taken an old dresser and put a sink in it...it was just darling!!! I would love to go back!! Melissa was a great hostess as well!!!

Wow Diana! All the pix are just wonderful! It'll be hard to comment on all of them individually The pond and flowers are beautiful!
Your sons farm animals make me miss my grandparents farm back home when they were alive. I especially love horses. They are such gorgeous animals! You and Glen look so happy!! You are sooo very lucky to have such a loving and happy family. You are also very lucky to have them near you. I know that you are grateful for that. I miss my family so much living this far from them. Thank goodness for cell phones and free mobile to mobile lol! The B&B is simply gorgeous!! My husband has a bed almost identical to that one only not in near as good a shape as it. His belonged to his grandparents. Did you leave any ferns at Lowe's for the other customers? Seriously Diana....your pictures are all wonderful! |

The pictures are wonderful Diana. I love the pond and the pictures of your family members. The B & B is gorgeous. I love all that wood furniture. You take such great pictures.

Well, for one.....I have a camera that I just love!! That helps with the pictures and I've been carrying it in my purse so I can take more pictures.
My cousin's little B & B was sooo nice!! I just loved her antiques and the way she decorated! I keep thinking what I can do to Jaci's room after she leaves that would be as nice as what Melissa had. Paula, it IS nice to have my family close by!! I can't imagine what it would be like to especially have the grandchildren very far away. I guess that I'd just have a huge fuel bill!!!!

Diana! The pictures are so wonderful - thanks so much for sharing them.
I LOVE the pond. If we had one like that with fish in it, Gary would be out there all the time! LOL!!! The farm animals remind me of the farm I grew up on! I especially love the chickens! I can just see you with all those ferns in your car! I love the flea market pics, I can sooo related to a car that full of stuff! The B&B is absolutely gorgeous! I just absolutely love antiques, and I would so love to have a room full of them!!! Thanks so much for sharing the pictures - I just love looking at them.

Great pictures!! I can just see your kids swimming in the pond I love the door propped in the corner of the B&B!!! You should get a copy of the picture of you, Glen and Dean and hang it on the wall!

Thanks so much for your comments!!!
Gayle, my Dad loved to fish....and with emphysema he got to where he couldn't walk very far so he would come out here and sit right by the road where it was just a few steps from the pond and fish!!! Gary would love it!!!!

These pictures are great! That pond is like a little slice of heaven in the summer!
Such fun, splashing around in the water right there on your own land. The picture of you, Glen and the baby is just beautiful Diana. I think you should frame that.. I love the B&B! You could do that easily with your creativity and love of antiques. Hit those flea markets girl!

I would, Judy, but Glen has put the skids to my spending. I guess that we have a big farm payment coming up and things are getting tight. Having the wedding and a daughter in need hasn't helped either.
It's more like.....hit the garage sales!!!!!! And get creative!!!!!
