Number Eight!

Wishing a very Happy 8th Anniversary today to our daughter and son-in-law!  Hope your day is as fantastic as the two of you are!!

Pumpkins and More

The Great Pumpkin! Got it hauled over to our yard from the garden.....too bad it has a bad spot on the other side....will shorten it's decorative time a lot...

Tyler helped us pick all of these! and this is only part of what we have! We are pumpkin crazy!

unripe poke berries.....their stems sure are a bright pink!

More Stuff

a few weeks ago we were uptown on trash day and I saw this leaning against a trash cart....of course I had to stop and pick it up!  It is stamped on the back as being made by some crafters in Missouri....it is in good shape and has four pegs to hang something on.....I believe painted strawberries were big in the 70's..not sure what I will do with it...

This belonged to my parents.I have it hanging in the hall, right outside the playroom. The twins were scared of it one day and I am not real sure the "big kids" like it either! ha! It is unique!

Vienna Rocks

I am trying to remember where I found this rock.....relocated it at the Post Office...

Found this rock Monday when I was picking up trash at the Old Jail

I really like this rock...Richard found it Tuesday....he had gone up to the Lion's Club to fix the flag and it was twisted up in the ropes...

Thursday Things

A couple plates out of the china cabinet today....a vintage Pioneer Village plate.....we have been there, and it was pretty amazing! could have spent two days there!

Little plate from Juanita's things.always reminded me of Malinda, with the brown hair and eyes..

Photo Dump

Random pictures....caterpillar in the yard....

snake sunning itself at a low water crossing on the Lambeth road

picture really doesn't show what is going on here, but water always comes out here after even a little rain...this time you could actually see it bubbling out of the ground, flowing through the grass, across the driveway and down the highway.....

black/yellow garden spider web, early one morning in the garden..

in our front yard, under the Pin Oak trees.

pretty vine growing behind the Old Jail Museum

We have a big garden spider living by our back deck....I believe this is isn't egg sack..
