Sweet Ride!

Only a total stud could drive this car...and, well....Will is now the proud owner.

???

So it was rainy most of the afternoon yesterday and naturally the temperature dropped some because of it but you can imagine my utter shock when I saw this "white stuff" on the side of the road yesterday on my way home....Yep. That's exactly what you think it is...




I slammed on my brakes, stopped in the middle of the road and took these pictures with my phone. I know what you are thinking but don't worry, we live in the middle of no where (have I mentioned that before?) so no one was coming, but if they were, stopping in the road is a pretty common occurrence out here (wildlife, car in the ditch, snow in August!...). Crazy, people.

Progress!

Summer looks good on our house! We've been working hard to make things look extra pretty this summer and it appears to be paying off. Our flowers are growing, our vegetables are growing AND our grass is growing (we've already mowed!). Aaahh Summer is so wonderful, I wish it would stay forever!



Will's tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers. The cucumbers don't appear to be doing anything other than over taking but we will keep being patient.



We lined the driveway with lights, put up some hanging baskets and Will even made me some flower boxes...see them on the deck railing? And we got a great deal on some Adirondack chairs that we stained for the front porch! Shew!





Now we just need the flagstone and maybe we can take a break...
