Give a boy a squirtgun.....

A warm day. A great day for some squirtgun fun.
Take one boy with an orange lizard.

Give him a squirt gun.
Don't let that cute face fool you.

Someone is going to get wet, guess who?

Here is how the game went down.
Gramma, pretend that you don't see me.

Then I will jump up and squirt you, okay?


See, this is how you play the game.

Favorite backyard things

I enjoy spending time in my backyard.  Here are some of the reasons why.
My most favorite backyard thing!

I am going to plant some parsley in this giant cup.

My giant wire rooster. I am also going to plant some basil him.

I have a weakness for old doors.
I look for them any time I go junkin.
I would love to find a turquoise one.

My favorite reading spot.
A good book, a glass of iced tea.

I actually saw a bird sitting on top of the birdhouse.
When I tried to take the photo, he flew away.
I found this old wagon at a flew market a few years ago
and paid $5.00.  It has a wonky wheel and it hard to pull, but great for the yard.
The birdhouse was another vintage find on the cheap.

How sweet they are too look at.

Rockin it Old School.

 Does anyone remember when milk was delivered to your door by the milkman?   I don't remember a milkman, but I do remember when milk came in glass bottles.
. It keeps the milk icy cold.
It's a good thing.

Easter sightings

We had a great Easter.  Sunday morning church, lunch, and easter festivities.
Here are a few, yes I said few, I took 128 pictures. You all should
be very happy that I didn't post all of them.  ENJOY.

Easter baskets and eggs for the grands.


The eggs waiting to me hidden.

Before we took Charley Jane her basket.

He is Risen,, INDEED!

I hid this giant egg filled with goodies.  Next year it will be hidden in a more difficult spot.


A very excited boy waiting to open his basket.

A book about bugs.

Every easter basket needs a giant crawling cockroach.

See, here he is with his giant crawling cockroach.

The egg hunt is on,

His face when he saw the giant egg.


Mom, dad, and Micah.

Just cute.

YES, we even got a visit from our new baby grandaughter.
SWEET BABY EASTER FEET.
I have a feddish for baby feet.
A great Easter day.

I'm in BIG trouble.

What happens when gramma goes on a spring shopping spree?

A girl born in March needs a new spring wardrobe right?

A lovely turquoise ensemble.

A little brown and white sunsuit.

This just screams sunshine and picnics.

No wardrobe is complete without a navy blue romper, right?

The entire spring collection.

Along with some sweets.
What girl can resist cookies with smiles and flower?

All wrapped up in a pretty bag, ready to go.
She will be modeling this spring-y wardrobe soon.
