Not-Quite-Country Girl

I decided to try a different Christmas tree farm this year.

There they are....my Christmas joys!

A wonderful Thanksgiving Day...28 of us gathered at my sister Barb and brother-in-law John's house for a day of family and feasting.

Little June had the only "trunk" I saw on Halloween night...and what a cute trunk it was!

October is truly one of my favorite months of the entire year...and how quickly it passed this year!

It's been a week of nostalgia and reminiscing, so for Halloween I just had to throw this photo out there again.

We can say it was the HOTTEST Summer Shindig in the 4 years our church has been hosting it!  But the 90+degrees and 100% humidity didn't keep us from having a hot-diggity time!

May has been a banner month for me!  A new grandson Daniel born May 4, two new foster grandchildren (more about them later) arrived in Emily and Zach's arms last week, and Mother's Day was extra special too!

Since Kim and I will be in Kenya on Easter, and since the day was beautiful, and since eight children under the age of 9 inside our little cabin can get a bit crazy...we decided to do a pre-Easter egg hunt after lunch on Sunday.

Kimmie knows me well.  The way to my heart is through sweets...chocolate and ice cream, to be specific!
