My small garden

This spring we had a late start on our garden, but we did make it a little bit larger.  Next year we have plans to make it larger still.  We also have a cute light house to cover our well.  It has a small solar light on top and at night it shines!  Notice my "fishing lure" scare crow in the garden area.

Driveway Happenings





Today our entire driveway is paved! And we have a gorgeous day also! Enjoy!

Basement Happenings



Wayne has been busy building a basement closet and a work bench for himself. Although the closet is not completely done, I wanted to share a photo. Everything looks so nice.

My hike to "Pete's Woods"





This hike was taken on my Tuesday Women's Trekker Hike group last week. These wildflowers were spectacular!

Frankfort Sewing Studio



You have been hearing about the Sewing Studio that we have been working on, so here are some photos. Wayne did some painting for the studio and I have been helping to put it together and also helping with the Open Sew sessions.

Vacationing in Belleville, Michigan






A couple of weeks ago, I visited John and the grand kids while Jessica was out-of-town attending a training class for work. We decided to go on "vacation" to the park since it was a glorious, sunny, warm day (80 degrees)! Here are some photos of the kiddos enjoying our mini-vacation. Later on we went out to eat at Big Boy and Nora found every image of Big Boy there was to find. She kept saying "Here he is", "Here's Big Boy"-- it was a lot of fun!

Revamped Lane Chest




I've been meaning to replace the cushion top on the Lane Chest that my sister-in-law gave to me. It was looking pretty tired, so decided to use fabric that I had around the house. It really turned out nice. The center area was a small woven "rug" that was not practical to use as a rug and the smaller fabric pieces are remnants that I had from covering chair cushions. As you can see, Lucy and Savannah think the re-make is pretty nice!
