Audra Rose	Posted - Oct 31 2016 : 11:45:11 AM We went to Kentucky for a church homecoming, and took some time to check out properties near Irvine that we saw on Zillow. Somehow our GPS got confused in the mountains, but we found the property I had my eye on purely by accident. It is everything that I want - a view, quiet, and a small house. The only problem is that we aren't ready to retire for anot her couple years, and can't afford two mortgages. I hope the LORD will keep it for us!

Killarney	Posted - Aug 16 2024 : 6:07:15 PM How exciting, riding in a hot air Balloon! I started using my good dishes and quilts in the 1990s. Why not enjoy them. My grandma made the quilts, so cozy and I see her stitches and think of her with her thimble on 1 finger. I've broken quite a few dishes and glasses! Still got the memories! Connie

Audra Rose	Posted - Aug 14 2024 : 6:17:08 PM Thank goodness it wasn't Corelle. Those shards went everywhere. Vanessa Farmgirl Sister #6754
MaryJanesNiece	Posted - Aug 14 2024 : 2:48:47 PM Vanessa, your hummingbird feeder is super neat and it looks like the birds already like it! I am sorry to hear about your crystal tumbler. I actually broke a glass myself this week. It's more stressful worrying if I got all the tiny glass pieces then being upset about a broken glass. Krista
Audra Rose	Posted - Aug 14 2024 : 09:44:02 AM This was the last of a set of 6 crystal tumblers. When we were newlyweds in Germany we bought them on a tour to a crystal factory. For years they were stored in their box until one day I thought "use them,they're no good otherwise." One by one they were broken but I wasn't upset. This last tumbler was perfect for a civilized portion of thai iced tea, until a careless gesture sent it bouncing into the sink. Vanessa Farmgirl Sister #6754
Audra Rose	Posted - Aug 09 2024 : 5:55:58 PM This week I've been attending the "Old Eeliable" Germantown Fair. I rode in a tethered hot air balloon and took pictures of chicken rodeo and pen the pig. Vanessa Farmgirl Sister #6754
Red Tractor Girl	Posted - Aug 03 2024 : 4:45:26 PM Vanessa, I love what you did for your front porch area with the rocks and how you set up some furniture. It all looks so welcoming and comfy for good ole summertime porch sittin'!! Winnie #3109 Red Tractor Girl Farm Sister of the Year 2014-2015 FGOTM- October 2018
nubidane	Posted - Aug 03 2024 : 4:25:40 PM I love that Vanessa! My hummingbirds have been scant this year. Maybe they want a more upscale feeder!
VegiChik	Posted - Aug 03 2024 : 1:10:50 PM How unique! Love it! When asked “How are you?”, I reply, “Better than good!”
Killarney	Posted - Aug 02 2024 : 6:00:49 PM Oh Vanessa! They is darling!! Connie W.
Audra Rose	Posted - Aug 02 2024 : 3:55:54 PM My husband is an online shopper and I'm not. Sometimes I don't agree with the stuff he buys but I think he scored some brownie points today. He got me new hummingbird feeder that looks like a windchime. It's hardly been up 5 minutes and they've been slurping the nectar. Vanessa Farmgirl Sister #6754
MaryJanesNiece	Posted - Jul 19 2024 : 3:59:30 PM Vanessa, your front yard is looking great! We have large rocks around our front porch making a planter. Last year we decided to expand it and make the rocks go all the way down the side of the house. Looks much better now. Plus now I have extra places to plant stuff! Krista
levisgrammy	Posted - Jul 18 2024 : 03:45:42 AM Looks great Vanessa! I am on the lookout for rock to put around our front flower gardens. They have them part way around that were here when we moved in and I'd like them to look more finished. ~Denise Sister #43~ "I am a bookaholic and I have no desire to be cured."

Audra Rose	Posted - Jul 17 2024 : 3:29:11 PM We put another layer on the planter. Sweetie complained at my request for long, wide and thinnish pieces. The hound is our Primrose, less stinky since I used Poopf on her. Vanessa Farmgirl Sister #6754
YellowRose	Posted - Jul 13 2024 : 12:47:21 PM Vanessa, your front porch is so welcoming and has a sense of peace about it. Hugs, Sara "FarmGirl Sister" #6034 Aug 2014 FGOTM Sept 2015 - Feb 2019 - Oct 2023 Lord put your arm around my shoulders & your hand over my mouth.
Audra Rose	Posted - Jul 13 2024 : 12:34:22 PM My friend and I are at the Red's versus Marlins game. She's the tall one. Vanessa Farmgirl Sister #6754
Audra Rose	Posted - Jul 13 2024 : 12:31:57 PM One more load! Vanessa Farmgirl Sister #6754
Killarney	Posted - Jul 03 2024 : 11:11:52 AM I love it !! Looks beautiful! My days of hauling stones are over, but brought back many loads from my in-laws land in Mt. View, Arkansas back in the 1980's and 90's. Connie W.
Audra Rose	Posted - Jul 02 2024 : 7:41:29 PM Almost! The rooms are set up, just need a little cleaning. My sweetie decided that we needed an updated bathroom, we don't know when the handyman will be available, so that project might come down to the last minute. Vanessa Farmgirl Sister #6754
lovecatsandsunshine	Posted - Jul 02 2024 : 4:53:44 PM Are you ready for students? Today's good mood brought to you by a lot of coffee!!! Farmgirl in SC Farmgirl #8548 FGOTM April 2023
Jokamartell	Posted - Jun 29 2024 : 7:08:47 PM Very pretty, Vanessa! :) Karen :) To quote one of my past preschoolers “Not one of those Karens, but a good Karen”! Haha
VegiChik	Posted - Jun 29 2024 : 6:04:20 PM Love the “limestone touch”! Natural versus manmade. When asked “How are you?”, I reply, “Better than good!”
Audra Rose	Posted - Jun 29 2024 : 3:55:34 PM My sweetie has several faults but he does indulge my ideas. This is the start of a rustic flower bed along our front porch. Along the highway there are cuts in the hills. The limestone rocks flake off in flat pieces free for the taking. We only had stamina for 2 loads because of the heat and humidity but it is a start. Vanessa Farmgirl Sister #6754
Audra Rose	Posted - Jun 29 2024 : 07:46:33 AM We tried a big can of tomato juice. She shook it all over our front porch. Finally got some charcoal activated skunk shampoo from Walmart. She doesn't smell as bad but it's still there.. she will get several baths this weekend. Vanessa Farmgirl Sister #6754
Killarney	Posted - Jun 28 2024 : 7:45:41 PM Marie,I read thay same thing,tomato juice. Connie w.
