<\/a><\/p>\nI absolutely love the color we painted the walls.<\/p>\n
We folded some of the quilts on an old trunk.\u00a0 We also refolded all the rest of my quilts and put them in another room. I must have at least one hundred.<\/p>\n This is David’s grandfather’s old rocker that my daddy stripped and refinished for me one Christmas long ago.\u00a0 David’s grandpa would sit on his front porch and smoke a cigar every evening. When my mother and I would drive by his house at night, all we could see was the lit end of the cigar and mom would say, “There’s Mr. Henley, smoking his cigar.”\u00a0 I didn’t know at the time I would be his granddaughter-in-law one day.\u00a0 These are three quilts I’ve made.<\/p>\n I’ve still got to get some linen pillowcases and we just ordered a Victorian crystal chandelier and the room will be completed.<\/p>\n Can’t remember where we got this old chest of drawers. Probably an auction.<\/p>\n David learned his folding skills while working for Ralph Lauren. He’s folded so many clothes in the years he’s worked there so when I need things folded very neatly, I ask David.\u00a0 I had a pile of tablecloths I’ve collected over the years and he folded them for me. I asked him to count them so I’d know how many I have.<\/p>\n Here they all are. He said I have one hundred tablecloths!\u00a0\u00a0 I had no idea.\u00a0 I’m going to have to start getting rid of a few I think.\u00a0 But doesn’t that pile look neat?\u00a0 I would never be able to fold those so neatly.<\/p>\n When the days are warm ,we spend a lot of time on one of our porch swings and watch the world go by. Of course, not too much of the world is going by at this time because of the virus, but there are people still traveling the roads going some place.\u00a0 We had an eighty degree day this week, but today it’s in the fifties and will freeze tonight.\u00a0 While sitting on the swing on my shop front porch a few days ago we saw this…<\/p>\n Peeking through the trees across the road a big moon was glowing.<\/p>\n So David ran in and got the camera and we took some picture of the super moon. The Pink Moon or Planting Moon it is called.<\/p>\n I love the silhouettes of the branches across the moon’s face.<\/p>\n Then David took some close ups.<\/p>\n The moon is absolutely beautiful. They say we only have so many full moons in our lives. I’ve seen most of the ones I’m going to see, but I hope I have a few left.<\/p>\n Skipping along. David found an old fruit press we got a long time ago.\u00a0 We had a few oranges so he made some juice. How many oranges does it take to make a glass of juice?<\/p>\n Quite a few. And with the juice and some zest I made the best orange chiffon cake with orange icing.\u00a0 I didn’t get a picture of it, but suffice it to say it was delicious!\u00a0 I’m going to make another one this week.<\/p>\n Can’t leave without showing the garden and how it’s springing to life.<\/p>\n The weeping cherry is about ready to blossom and the pink flowering almond is full of bloom.<\/p>\n More pink flowering almond beside the house.<\/p>\n The Azalea in full bloom.<\/p>\n We cut down dead foliage, but this space will soon be full of hydrangea and Indigo.<\/p>\n Redbud is everywhere in Indiana.\u00a0 This one is in my front yard.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
