Wordless Wednesday – Day at Presque Isle State Park #ww

Last Thursday, Pie and I picked up our two favorite cousins and spent the entire day at the lake.  It was a perfect 73 degrees and partly sunny and while we didn’t swim — we did have the most wonderful time digging for lake glass, wading along the shore and exploring the many beaches of […]

Wordless Wednesday – Grandbaby, Gimli & Mini Me #ww

This week’s Wordless Wednesday is just three random cellphone photos from the past week or so. My granddaughter was peeking over the couch at me and she looked so cute while trying to escape! Our barred rock rooster Gimli has grown into a gorgeous black and white beast. While he still has a bit of […]

{almost} Wordless Wednesday – Graduation Party #ww

We hosted our son’s graduation party at the community park last Sunday. It was so nice to catch up with family and though the day was long and hot, it turned out to be a  big success! I still have a hard time believing this “kid” will be starting college in less than a month! […]

Wordless Wednesday – Baby’s First Trip To The Zoo #ww

The weekend before last, we took the family and went to Pymatuning Deer Park for the afternoon. We try to go once a year, it’s a great little zoo that lets you get up close to the animals. This was our granddaughter’s first trip to the zoo! It was a beautiful day, even though the small […]

{almost} Wordless Wednesday – Darling Granddaughter #ww

Wiggle worm would be just one of many words to describe our darling granddaughter! She is almost 7 1/2 months old now (can you believe it?) and trying to explore everything! Watch out if you have a camera, phone, tablet or anything else electronic in your hand — she WANTS it! Holding the camera just […]

{almost} Wordless Wednesday – Hillbilly Raised Bed #ww

I am still alive, promise! Summer is kicking my butt though and I haven’t really had time to blog. Today, I finally planted the veggie plants in the raised beds. It took me 3 1/2 hours to weed out last year’s junk and get my plants in the ground. Then I had to rig up […]

Wordless Wednesday – Cap and Gown #ww

This is what is happening tonight. My first born is graduating from high school! *tears* I know I haven’t been around much on the blog or online. Graduation is really getting to me! It’s so hard to see him in this cap and gown and I can barely believe that my son is no longer […]

{almost} Wordless Wednesday – Senior Prom #ww

Our son attended his Senior Prom last Friday with his fiancee. Please, excuse me while I go curl up in the corner with a tub of cool whip.  Ah! Seriously, I cannot believe he will be graduating in just a few weeks. Today, he received his letter of acceptance to college. I cry. He will […]

{almost} Wordless Wednesday – Daffodils & Dirt Roads #ww

I can never be truly wordless but I will keep it short this week! Saturday was a gorgeous day and it looks like the rest of this week calls for more of the same blue skies and warmer temps. It’s so nice to be able to get outside, throw open the windows and take walks […]

{almost} Wordless Wednesday – Chickening Around #ww

You may think I’m kidding you when I mention how much of a crazy chicken lady I really am. Well, I kid you not. This evening, for reasons untold, I needed to take a photo with a chicken and a sign. Or, rather, wanted to take a photo with a chicken and a sign.  Chickens […]

{almost} Wordless Wednesday – Baby Cuteness #ww

Hi there. I am little miss ball of cuteness. No really, my granny says so! Good grief, can you believe this little girl? She just tugs at the heart when she smiles! And she loves granny’s camera! Though she probably wonders why granny’s face always has that big black thingy in front of it :) […]

{almost} Wordless Wednesday – growing every day #ww

Guess who is four and a half months old now? Our sweet little granddaughter, that’s who!  What a difference a week makes! Baby girl and her Mama spent Easter break at our house and she is just growing so fast! She coos and smiles at her Daddy and tries to sit up and drools a […]
