Welcome

Welcome to our old farmhouse. Over the past year I have learned so much history of this house and the people who lived here. Ninety six years of love, loss, hopes and dreams. Preservation continues and there is always a repair to be done. We are trying to be purest in our preservation as much as we possibly can. I hope you follow along and each week I will try to give you a little history of the house as well as the first owners of the house. I've been lucky enough to find a journal from a Granddaughter who talks about the house as well as her Grandparents. So come follow along and learn about this old house as well as the occupants, old and new.

Container Gardening

Join me at
for Fertilizer Friday.
I decided this summer I would
do several containers for the deck,
to add a little color and interest to that
space.
My red hibiscus, this a a new plant, I lost my
peach colored one last winter that I had for
several years.
My pond... Sweet potato vine
Asparagus fern
I have several different plants in this just for
interest.
One of my favorites, you will see
this guy allot this fall as I try to incorporate
him into my fall decorating!
Love the color of this ivy. Thanks for visiting.
Don't forget to stop in at Tootsie Time!
Bye For Now,

Your yard is is so pretty.
