End of Summer
And, now I'm done with the family reunions and my rained out August Party and an additional fair at which I lost my cell phone. (very cool fair, btw http://www.canfieldfair.com/index.html ) Plus, we replaced the stairway in the church and I get to paint the new steps, we have a hayride, civil war re-enactment to attend and projects to finish.. so much for sleeping thru september.
Busy Summer
Such a busy summer so far.. my brother's wedding and receptions, our church celebration of the new land purchase, our good friends' Fourth of July Meatfest, a parade, yard work for us, yard work for the friends who helped us, and the local county fair 3 times. I'm tired just looking at the list. but, what fun it's been so far. and now, I only have Vacation Bible School, 3 family reunions and our very own August party. I think maybe I'll sleep thru September.
The Party's Over!
Finally finished!! The reception in Dayton and the family do here. My brother's simple wedding is complete. As for myself, I'm happy everyone seemed to have a good time.. there was NO leftover food or punch and my friends-n-family are basically tidy people so there's no big trashed mess of the yard. My beloved hubby and dear friend got the porch done in time for the party which was extremely cool.
All proud of myself
This is the cake I made for my niece's confirmation party. Wilton makes a sparkle gell icing that came out perfect for this stained glass cake.
Happy Birthday to ME!!!
. . . and several of my friends. In honor of my birthday, here's a poem my sister once sent me. A Morning Poem I woke early one morning, the earth lay cool and still when suddenly a tiny bird perched on my window sill ~ He sang a song so lovely so carefree and so gay that slowly all my troubles began to slip away ~ He sang of far off places of laughter and of fun it seemed his very trilling brought up the morning sun ~ I stirred beneath the covers crept slowly out of bed then gently shut the window and crushed his little head ~ I am just not a morning person.
