Wordless Wednesday: “The Water is… Cold”
Cold Water
Kids’ Program
I know the internet is full of them now, but, hey, I might as well jump into the fray. Here’s Ten Sleep School’s kindergarten, first, and second graders singing “We Wish You A Merry Christmas”… Miss Reagan stole the show… even though she never did break into a dance like I expected her to!…
What A Night!
We spend sooooo much time preparing the library and food and crafting donations, that when we go home and collapse after it’s all over… we could still use a day of rest to recover! I’m getting ahead of myself. We have always started our party at 6 pm, but this year, Craig Johnson requested an…
Library Donations
I’ve been working on what I’m donating to our library silent auction. This doesn’t really show up well, It’s just a pine tree shape cut from a green hardback book. It does look cute on my counter though! I covered this box with wrapping paper and filled it with items to make a Christmas Eve…
Christmas Cookie Fail
Getting ready for the library’s open house by making Christmas treats. I’ve never put these together… pretzel, peppermint kisses topped by a peppermint M&M. Simple, right? I shoved them in the oven, waiting for the kiss to melt down. It didn’t. By the time I went, seriously? It shouldn’t take so long! The chocolate kiss…
#TBT : Marmalade
Among the items Johnny gave me was this. This one pound marmalade jar could be dated anywhere between 1880-1920. As far as I could tell in an hour of research, was that these were very common, and often saved to be reused after the marmalade was long gone! Johnny’s story was that one time, as…
Wordless Wednesday: “Headed to the Corral”
Headed for the Corral
So Long, Girls
Daniel pitched some hay for the heifers, and we jumped on four wheelers to bring them in from the surrounding fields. These heifers will go the sale barn and hopefully find good homes somewhere else as replacements. They didn’t make the cut here, but maybe they’ll work on another place. I always feel bad for…
Treasures
Johnny and I met up to go through some things in his basement… and he gave me some treasures! I was very excited to receive these two plates… After minimal internet search, I found them to be Fred Roberts grill plates from the 1940’s or 1950’s. I initially thought them to be children’s plates, but…
New Ride
When Vernon starts checking out new vehicles… I just stand back because I know one is coming! The blue Grand Cherokee is sold… the new silver Cherokee Trailhawk is here! It’s smaller and fancier, and a little aggressive. I keep thinking I need a NX-01 window cling for it for some reason… Don’t worry, my…
She’s So Pretty
Look what arrived today! My new “toy”! The one and only photo I have on it so far, is my favorite photo of Lucas that I had to set as my desktop background. It seems to be much faster than my old one… and I will have to go get some pics tomorrow to start…
