Celebrating~Again...

Everyone....blow up some balloons...we have a celebration goin' on. It is time to celebrate again....didn't we do that last week...I got a little confused and did the balloon thing and party planning last week...too. Woops!

So I decided to go ahead and plant a few pink flowers in some left over chicken feeders...hubby will never know...I told him if he doesn't use it for farming in 12 months I'm planting something in it! Hahahaha!

I set the table in pink for our celebration...ok ok so this may have been at Easter time...I don't remember...yes I see the bunny....anyhoo....

Poopsie let me take some pictures of her room to join in on the pink fun....
Be sure to visit Beverly! She is all excited because her blog and the party have been published and written about in Artful Blogging! Yayah~ You go Beverly we are so happy for you!

PORCH PARTY~

PORCH PARTY!

Welcome to my porch! Let's enjoy some ice tea and visit for awhile! We live in an older farmhouse home with a very long porch...it is inviting and we love to sit here and enjoy the beautiful weather!










Now this is our back porch, by our pool. We love to have people over and barbecue, have luncheons, or just have a good old fashion swimming party with lots of kids and relatives...
Below is a picture of our deck off the patio...right now the patio is covered with boxes since we have been moving my parents in with us.

A wheelbarrow full of seasonal flowers....

A chicken waterer hammered onto a post~turned into a bird waterer.

Stay for awhile and we can visit outside and enjoy a lovely day together...

laughig..

telling funny stories....

thinking up new spray painting projects...

SOUNDS LIKE FUN TO ME! YAYAH!

Be sure to visit everyone with a neighborly visit!

White~Garden/Vintage Bathroom Decor

Hello! It seems that it is time again for White~Wednesday! I love this blog party over at http://fadedcharmcottage.blogspot.com/. The pictures are just wonderful from everyone. Please visit and you will see what I mean! First of all, we have been decorating a new bathroom! Yipeee. We have had tiny bathrooms in our older farmhouse home so this is a real blessing to us.

I went shopping at the thrift store for some things to decorate with and ended up spray painting most of them white. I am going for a Garden/Vintage feel in the bathroom...

Below are some of the finished products resting on a silver tray.

I found a large cream pitcher and sugar bowl with a lid. I keep makeup brushes in the creamer and cotton balls in the sugar bowl. Another little pitcher holds Q tips. Again resting on a silver tray. I like the feeling that they are corralled together.

I found this soap dispenser at Target. I bought 2 since we have 2 sinks. It was a little much but I figured it wouldn't be replaced in a long time so it was worth it to me.

Outdoor my little bunny is waiting for summer to come.

Thanks for visiting. I'll be showing more of my bathroom. I just love it but I'm still painting doors and trim. NEVER ENDING! BIG SMILE.

BLESSINGS,

Debbie

I was chased I tell you....chased by a mouse!

I was chased by this hugomongo thing! We had company...

all these college kids staying with us...

I was mortified.

We live in a farmhouse yes...and sometimes...on occasion there has been a critter loose in the house. One time a lizard...another time a sheep actually ran in...the door was open...the sheep were loose...and somehow it ran past my two boys 2 and 3 at the time and got in the house!

This furry thing however was huge...ok

not as big as a sheep but...

I couldn't afford to scream because of company, running through our legs, us jumping around...poopsie and I....like we were running on hot coals...

Yeah that was me...in high heels...

I finally got it with a broom...killed the monster...and swept it outside...the other one

was killed later. I was mortified, absolutely mortified....

On another note!
