The Experiment

That's what mom is calling this - the experiment.

She wanted to plant Morning Glories but she didn't know where to plant them because they need room and height to climb.

 She took one of her garden chairs and planted Heavenly Blue Morning Glory seeds in a pot and put the pot at the base of the garden chair.  She had visions of the vine growing just on the chair.  How foolish!

 She's been waiting and waiting and waiting for them to bloom~

What a BEAUTIFUL color blue!

The only problem is that the morning glory vine is taller than the witch hazel that's supporting it!   
She'll have to come up with a better plan for next year!

So until next time.................

Love ya lots♥

Time to Celebrate

Kevin's barn is looking awesome!
Look how much they got done!  All he has to do is build the doors and hang them and put in a few windows.  Unbelievable!

 Guess who was there?
That's our friend, Carol Usher with our dad, and her AireBoy, Scuffer ♥

 The best part is coming - the EATS!  How we wish we were there!

 That's a lot of peeps attending this pawty!

Our dad is coming home today and we can't wait ☺

Love ya lots♥

Homemade Applesauce

Our apple tree is loaded with apples this year.

 We don't spray them because the waterfowl eat them so they don't look very pretty on the outside but once you peel off the skin, they're fine~

 Mom is making homemade applesauce. The big pot has brown sugar and spices and a pat of butter and the little pot is just apples and water. The little pot is for us!

We snagged another picture of Kevin's raising.    It's our dad's 50th barn raising!  What an accomplishment!  Congratulations to our dad and thank you to each and every one of  our Northford Timber Framer family!

Love ya lots♥

Kevin's Barn Raising

Our dad is in Vermont with the Northford Timber Framers on this Friday the 13th!  
Today is the barn raising of our friend, Kevin!
Kevin sure does look happy to see his barn going up!

 That's our dad!  Hi dad!
We're holding down the fort till you get back!

 Lookin' good, guys!  We sure wish that we were there supervising but it looks like you have everything under control!

 Good job remembering to pack the Barn Raising red wine for Kevin and Jody, Molly!

If we snag any more pictures, we'll be sure to post them!

So until next time.............

Love ya lots♥

Dad's New Angel

 It's meal time for the waterfowl~~

Did you notice the excavator?

Our dad is building a bigger and better swan house.  The excavator set the pipes in the pond along with some manpower help.    The pipe is positioned and the bucket on the excavator acts like a fist and  PUSHES the pipe right down into the pond muck.  Mom doesn't have a picture of this happening but it was fun to watch it happen.  That pipe is never coming out!

The swan house will happen before winter.  Dad has way too many projects going on at the same time. 

 This is Angel. She is dads' new Whooper swan~

 She's very docile and very sweet. 

Do you want to hear her whoop?



You sure do love your bread, don't you, Lucy!

Look what mom found blooming on her gardenia plant ♥

So until next time..............

Love ya lots♥

My Confession

I'm admitting it. I have a thing for feathers!
If I see them and I can't reach them or get to them, I bark until someone helps me and fetches it for me.

 I'm not fond of the little ones.  I like the big ones.  There's more to chew on!
I chew on them until there is nothing left to them!

I LOVE feathers!
Do any of you have a feather fetish?

Love ya lots♥

A Fabulous Pressie From Uncle Frank

Holy Moly! Look what Uncle Frank sent us, Mitch!

 They just have to be all for me, right?!

 I suppose that I could share two of them with you - but just TWO, okay?

 You sure did choose a winner of a gift, Uncle Frank!

Thank you so very, very much ♥

Love ya lots♥

I'm Eighteen Months Old

I've made it to 18 months!  Mom has her doubts at times because I am such a sweet girl but I also have an evil conniving side and a daredevil side.  I'm a normal girl, right?  And I do adore Mitch even though it's hard to tell sometimes~~

Do you like MY new necklace?
Mom won it on ebay.   It's a Terry Steven's original.  

Can't I wear it just for today, mom?  Pretty please!
I promise that I'll be very careful~~

Love ya lots ♥
Molly
