On My Porch

I love sitting on the front porch in the late afternoon, as the sun sinks lower in the sky, and watching all the activity at my bird feeder. It is wild to see how many birds come. Now I am not getting any amazing birds, nothing that would make the Audubon Society take notice but that is OK with me..I am not into celebrities anyway. I am not sure why this one bird wouldn't go onto the feeder or onto the ground below the feeder but she ust sat on a branch while her partner would fly to the feeder, get a seed and bring it back to her and feed her. It was such a loving act. We should all have someone to take care of us so well.

Regan

Today my sister in law gave birth to my newest nephew, Regan. He was born close to 3 months early and weighs only 1.4 pounds. Please keep Regan and MaryLou in your prayers that they will be home soon.

Welcome to the world little Regan, We love you!!

My bathroom

My NJ Scrapper friends wanted to see what my powder room looks like. When Jay and were redoing our home I wanted to have fn with the little powder room in the house. Because we have a farm house that was built in the 1830s I thought it would be fun to make my own little barn. I had two wonderful artists- my friend Kathy and her friend Marge come and create an entire mural in the bathroom. The entire room is painted so well that often people come out of it saying they had to touch the walls to believe that they were not stone and barnwood. I asked them to add a lot of little surprises so that each time you use that room there is something new for you to see.

Because of my fondness for roosters I thought it would be fun to have a chicken coop in the "barn" here are some of the girls and a friendly mouse

I wanted to have a heart with our initials carved into it

The room that this bathroom comes off of has a wall paper border of farm scenes. I had the Marge and Kathy paint part of the scene from that paper so that it looks like you are seeing it from a window in the barn
