Bulbs and More Bulbs!

Just a comment about the picture at the top (tulips and daffodils) of this blog. My sweet daughter-in-law was my inspiration. She got right busy her first year here in the valley, and planted bulbs and bulbs and more bulbs! You can guess what her yard looked like that coming spring....BEAUTIFUL!! She adds a few more every year and it truly is stunning. I found myself very drawn to bulbs last fall...hmmmmm....it's catching. Thank you Laura!

A Building Project

Packing tables and gear to target practice is over.... the guys now have a shed to call their own. It all began with rough sketch and then many nails and lots of boards later.......a pretty neat little nook with a built-in table and adjustable stools. It was a great "shop" project for Donny and he learned a lot about construction from Dad. I think they need a coffee pot..... then you just might find me out there on a rainy day.

Another Rug

Rug making is a good project to do together since we can both be on the floor!

Making a Frame With Pebbles

Pebbles from Libby Creek in Libby, MT made a great little momento of our last visit to see Anna. She inspired me to do this fun project after admiring the frame she made. The boys went pebble hunting for us and we had a great time with glue gun in hand. It is sprayed with a fast- drying clear coat several times to give it its satiny appearance. I chose to frame a picture taken around the Libby area.
