Swap Share & Stuff

Good Friday Morning!

It's been one, a busy week that is.  Today I feel free, all caught up on orders, whew.

Thought I would share Maygan's Stitchery and hubby's Flutes that placed in the fair.

Here is May's little pillow

and ...these are DH's Flutes and they sound so pretty
when played


Michelle from Granny's Pantry and I recently did a swap.  Look at the wonderful goodies she sent my way!

A super prim fall penny rug, penny rug candle mat and a pattern book.  She's so sweet!
I think today, I just may find time to sit and thumb through the book for the first time.

A huge! Thank You Michelle !
I love my new goodies....

..x..x...x...x..x...x..x..x..x..

The Corn Festival is happening in town this weekend.
Parade, Food, Street Dances, Wagon Rides, Vendors and
of course, Sweet Corn a plenty

we will be taking in a bit of the action!

I think I will tend to my gardens a bit this morning,
my Sweet Annie is almost 5' tall and just starting to bud,
beans to pick and string into Leather Britches

so the question for the day is....

How many Beans could a Bean Stringer string,
if a Bean Stringer strings, String Beans?

Have a Blessed Day,
Traci

Moon Lit Nights

bittersweet goodbyes at weeks end
brings a close to our summer in these parts
schools about to start, the leaves will be turning
you can feel the chill of fall in the night air
the barns stand empty, the grounds lay quiet
resting til next year


just a little glimpse of the great week we had, spent with Family & Friends
at the 2011 Warren County Fair

It's always good to come home!
