New sewing project

I found a pattern on for a boppy cover at http://www.vanillajoy.com/ So I decided to try it out, I cheated though and used velcro instead of a zipper. Maybe I will get adventerous and and put a zipper on the next one I do. The baby will be here in just a few short days, so I am wrapping up all the lose ends. Check out vanilla joy, she has some really cool do it yourself stuff.

Some good stuff from my garden

Here are some pics of a few of the good things I was able to get from our garden this year. We didn't get much corn cause various wind storms knocked the stalks over. I'm still getting cucumbers, potatos, beans, and carrots. I have a few watermelons growing, hopefully the good weather will last long enough to get a few.

Pencil sketch of my son

Did a pencil sketch of my son when he was younger, thought I would see how it would turn out. What do you think?

Turkeys, turkeys everywhere

I woke up the other morning to 16 turkeys in my back pasture. Funny birds.

Plant Pick of the Month-August

Well I have been slacking on my plant picks but I definately need to do one in August. Since August is the best month ever (being my birthday month) I wanted to do a one of my all time favorite plants - The Cala Lily. These beautiful lilies are native to South Africa, and happen to be poisonous. So don't eat them. I had cala lilies in my wedding bouquet. They can be cold hardy depending on the species.

Beautiful View

Here is some of the wonderful sunsets I get to enough out my back door.

More pictures of pretty flowers

Here are some of the pictures that the professional photographer took at my cousin's wedding, showing off the flowers I did a little more.
