Well…   Plans sure do change at the drop of a dime, don’t they?  We truly thought our new build would have at least been started by now.  We were hoping we would be in there doing our finishing work by mid-summer.  And moving in by the end of summer.   But, we finally admitted to ourselves […]

It’s finally summer.   I shared the cute little buffet table that Deb whipped up in 30 minutes but I didn’t show you the entire pergola.  It got a complete makeover from last summer.  I like my areas really full… “pooped up” as I like to say.  It feels so comfy and cozy to me.  We […]

Yay!!!  It’s Spring…. and almost Summer.   Or is it?  ???? I recently joined a bunch of friends over on Instagram for a backyard story garden tour.  While I was video taping them, I was freezing my coconuts off.  Dang.  I think it was 54 degrees.   So ridiculous.  That’s what you get in Indiana… four seasons […]

I’m joining several girls today on a Blog Hop… to show you how we all decorated our chicken coops or she sheds.  If you just ventured over here from The Pickled Rose, WELCOME! You guys just knew I would have to decorate the chicken coop for Winter.  I mean it got a good makeover for Fall […]

OK…so here’s the story.  I completely glossed right over and forgot my last Five on Friday post, because we’ve been working non-stop on this DANG pergola.  And best yet, it appears as though we are getting nothing done.  ????

Seriously, you guys.  I’m dying!  ???? If there was an emoji of a 150 year old rickety woman in a bed all wrapped up in bandages and in traction, I would certainly use that one.  We started our pergola yesterday.  You are probably just as excited as we are for the pure fact I’ve been […]
