Happenings in the Back Yard

Let's see what the girls are up to.
Well, I think there both girls. My husband does not.
What do you think? Neither one is cock-a-doodling.


There both sweet as can be. 
 Dee Dee (the black one) will let you hold her the other one will not.
They are eating a lot! And let's not forget about the POOP!
I've never seen so much poop from two tiny animals in my life! 
I use their poop to fertilize my pumpkins. I probably waited to long to plant these.
I'm learning and all I can do is try! This is what they look like after 1 week.
I have 3 mounds just like this one.


I should of took a picture of the girls hanging basket when I first bought it.
It was beautiful. 


My husband made these metal planters a long time ago on our back porch.
There is 2 total on there just like this one.
I just throw plants in here and hope for the best! lol!
Yelp, no clue in the gardening department at all!



That's about it around here for now.
Waiting for cooler weather so I can paint our building and maybe the coop.


The End!

July 4th Goodies

I meant to post this a long time ago! Oops! 
I got us all  (mainly the boys) ;) some treats to take with us on our trip.


I have been picking stuff up at stores for the longest time for this trip! If it looked patriotic looking, I bought it!
 Hmmmmm....I think you could say I was excited!


Do you see the red, blue, and white tortilla chips? Those was my fav! Bought those at World Market.






Fake baked some sweets!
Say what? Fake bake? Yes Ma'am! Store bought Rice Krispies treats just added white chocolate and sprinkles. Box cake mix and can icing........
Hey, I just go for looks! ;)
The pretty package makes things taste better, right?




Little secret........I even burned the bottom of the cupcakes!
Thank God my husband didn't marry me for my cooking!


Now it's time to start obsessing over Halloween goodies!
I can't wait!

This little piggy went to the market

Pickens Flea Market that is!
I don't get to go to that market but maybe once a year.
My in laws kept the boys for me and I took off to the market!
The weather was perfect and not to hot. 
It's a good little drive to this market, but so worth it.

Here a few of my favorites.


Found this piggy watering can for $4.00! 


I got another watering can to add to my collection. 
This one was only $10! 
My favorite finds was these clay pumpkin heads! I paid $15.00 for both.
These babies just had to come home with me! Very unique.
I'm always on the lookout for anything Halloween related.


Love the patina and his facial expression! 
I can't wait till Halloween this year!
 I'm already planning in my head how my porch will look this year.

What have you found lately that you couldn't live with out?

Take care!

Joining these fabulous parties!

Move Over Martha!

I wish! 
This month's magazine of Martha Stewart Living was the inspiration of the photos below!
I love the Fourth of July and we go all out too! I had a lot of fun recreating these pictures.
Thanks Debbie for getting me off my rear!



This month's issue shows you how to decorate your bicycle and wagons in a fun patriotic way.

Here's my take!


Here's Martha's


I had my handsome little man get in the action too!


Patriotic bucket of fun! 


My house. Just pretend there's a bunch of people out there!
Oh, pretend the grass is cut too! ;)


Pretty cool! Here's a bunch of photos from the shoot.




I made a cushion for his wagon about 6 years ago.
I decorate it every year.





My old rusty wagon has changed so much in 1 week!



Makes me happy!


Makes me smile!




Happy Fourth of July to everyone!!

Stay Safe and have fun!

A Free Vacation

I've been busy since Thursday going through my house.
I'm not sure why I always wait till the last minute to do things.
I've always been that way. ;) Anyway, I sold at the auction on Friday 
and Saturday night and at the Flea Market on Sunday morning.


This is just a sample! I filled my Commander slam full all 3 days and still have stuff left!


I'm one tired workin' junkin' girl right now!
Was it all worth it? Heck yeah!
I'm able to take our family on vacation for FREE!
Doesn't get any better than that!

Sorry no deck pictures. All the cupcakes was gone by that night except for 3! 
Umm....I made 24! 

Have a wonderful week and go clear out some junk and do something nice for yourself!
You deserve it!
xoxo
