I Wish I Knew Their Names...

These little guys are popping up everywhere....

Our 2 grandsons loved finding these....I could not shoot fast enough to keep up with them!

 
It totally amazes me of all the beauty lying on the earths floor.......


I always enjoy going on nature hikes with the boys.....they love nature and are very good spotters!

I have a special request....my mother-in-law is in the hospital and she needs a lot of prayer...she returned from a 2 week trip Saturday, visiting her mother who just turned 99 and landed in ICU for a couple of days. We are waiting on test results but the doctors think her cancer is back. 
Thank you so much in advance for your prayers and God Bless each and everyone of you!

God Bless

God provides us with so many little gifts.

God Bless each and everyone of you.....I hope you are enjoying this wonderful transition from Summer to Fall in your part of the world.

God Bless

It's Not What I Thought It Was!

I have been dealing with a rash on the top of my arms now for a week.......
a few other symptoms such as headache, hoarseness, a few heart palpitations (like a flutter).....nothing serious.
 
I thought it was the Chia Seeds I had started eating in my oatmeal, after about 4 days of eating them I thought I may be allergic to them so I stopped......The rash did not get any better......matter of fact is got worse!

This morning at work I had the worse heart palpitation I have ever had and thought I was going to pass out!
I had enough........what is going on I thought.....so I called my hubby to take me to the ER!

Of course they take lots and lots of blood, EKG, chest X-ray.....all came back great. Long story short....we think its the Veramyst nasal spray I have been using for the past 3 weeks for my allergies.....it seems the steroid in it is my culprit....NO MORE Veramyst for me! Now I just wait for about 3 or 4 days to see if the rash clears up!

I took this shot a couple of years ago......I love this beautiful old Maple tree at my daughters house. I look forward every year to see its beautiful transition in the Fall.

Hope everyone has had a great Monday......Fall in definitely in the air!

God Bless

A Fall Like Day!

I guess we have to have nasty weather to brings us beautiful weather.
It has been a beautiful Fall like day here in West TN.
They were out early this morning in our back yard and were very curious at what I was doing. A couple of them actually started walking closer to me to check things out.
 
I had the windows up for the most of the day..very cool this morning and its very pleasant out this afternoon. Love..Love...FALL

 Shot this on one of my road trips recently....a great place to relax and read a good book.

Hope everyone is having a great Sunday.......

 God Bless

What Happened to August......
Is Summer almost gone....
I do wish September could slow down just a bit.....
because when October rolls around......we get so busy with the arrival of  the"holidays"...which I dearly enjoy but they come and go way to fast!
Baby bullfrog my hubby found.....this little fellow was only about 2" long....he is so cute....did I just say C-U-T-E.....I thought frogs are suppose to be ugly.....lets just say not so cute.

We have this huge Barred Hoot Owl and he hangs out in the woods closest to our house...most of the time.
The other night the Hubby & I decided to go Owl Hunting....shooting only with my camera of course....No Luck, but we will try again.

This is the only photo I have of him....
This was like 4 in the afternoon.....which was taken from our kitchen window and cropped.

I will miss Summer but I am looking forward to my "FAVORITE" season of the year....
FALL!

God Bless

Happy Labor Day!
Our Chicken Theme B-day Party!

 Birthday Party Mascot "Big Red"

We weren't too sure but we went ahead and started setting up outside for the party...ok a few clouds hovered over but the sun would peep through a little.
Taking a few before pics just in case!
 We used mason jars for our beverages.....our daughter made the birthday banner, the adorable little stir sticks, & the chicken feed snacks......I am so glad I took these pics!

As we started to take the food out to the tables the bottom fell out......
The few of us...including me....that were outside at the time got soaked grabbing all we could to put under shelter.

The party moved inside!

By the time we finished eating the sun was out and it was beautiful the rest of the day.
Sitting hen cake I made for the party...and of course a snake, bugs and spiders had to be included....which were requested by the boys.

This was a surprise for the party.....
"Chicken Pops"
These "chicken" pops were so easy to make....these are not made from cake (cake pops) these were made from Oreo Cookies & Cream Cheese. 
They were a big hit even with the adults! 

Our main course was none other than Fried Chicken & Grilled Chicken......don't worry they were not from the boys pet chickens! 

The boys had a great party and I think everyone had a great time!
(wonder what the theme will be next year)

God Bless
