Hi!  I'm Terry!
I'm living a wonderful
life in rural Indiana
with my husband of
nearly 30 years....  the mother to 4 grown
children, mother-in-law
to 3, and grandma to
2 precious grandsons!


  I love it out here in the country, but I'm not really into the "country girl" lifestyle, so I consider myself to be a Not-Quite-Country Girl!
  I started this website in July 2008 as a way of
keeping my children, who are scattered hither and yon, up with what's happening back on our 40-acre farm.  It's turned out to be more fun than I even imagined...an opportunity for me to share my love for photography and ramble on about my ordinary life.
  God has richly blessed me!
  Welcome to my Not-Quite-Country world!

Off to
AFRICA...

11
more days!

LIKE HIS DADDY




































There's something very special about watching my son being a daddy to his own sons.


























Somehow 10 years ago when he was a teenage boy, I never pictured him swaddling a newborn.

























I couldn't imagine him patiently dressing a squirming toddler.





































I never thought of those quarterback hands gently clutching a baby to his chest.


























Who could've known he'd love trading smooches over cheddar goldfish crackers?


























It never occurred to me he'd become so well-versed in the childbirth process and breastfeeding techniques...





































...or trade in his weightlifting sessions for tossing a giggling 30-lb. bundle of energy into the air.


























How did he learn to entertain a newborn between feedings...


























...or corral an busy toddler?





































It's very simple.

Kristoffer had an amazing teacher.

He learned how to be a daddy...from his own Daddy!
