Never Enough Thyme

It is early and I am stealing a few precious moments away from

~packing up~

to remember  some good moments of our

short stay at our summer getaway

I haven't had much time to blog or

read my favorite blogs

I've been too busy enjoying....

morning coffee on the porch

fires are part of our Montana summers

they provide some spectacular sunrise pictures though

this one the neighbor got

these are mine

can you believe this is morning...

this is looking northeast

at

Glacier Nat'l Park

friends visiting

to take home their

~well his~

new toy

which was almost lost during the burglary

~whew~

kids frolicking in the yard

and on the lake

nieces to be loved

projects completed

the roof and the saying on the birdhouse were getting worn

Brother Bill fixed the roofs and repainted it

 

new finds

$12

for this sunflower sign

at a local artists studio

~Elizabeth Ann~

now I'm *digging* my  front porch

 maybe I'll look for a wooden screen door

~next year~

another of

Brother Bill's

Birdhouses

the end of the garage needed a little

~sometin, sometin~

summer cleaning...

I really, really, really

want a cupola

over that stove pipe

either one of these would work....

via homebunch

via my sweet savannah

but with a rooster

~of course~

via a cute little antique store in Sumner

that I need to check and make sure they

~still have~

hey, a girl can dream right?

I will miss our little farmhouse

and our family..

SIL Linda

had a birthday while we were here

I made red velvet cupcakes

yummo

she needed a little something fall for her

~mantle~

I love this expression

on her face

and it smells so darn good

The Hubs wanted to have his surgery over here

and it was a good idea to be with his brother

so he could help me stress the importance of

~taking it easy~

 the bandages are off

the stitches are glue..

sorry was that too gross?

Thanks Brother Bill & Linda

for everything you guys do to make our stay

over here so perfect

I am looking forward to going home though

~because~

I leave Wednesday for D.C.

to see the

~Grands~

 she looks so grown up here

and he is getting to be such a big boy

It's been too long...

she's got the coffee on..

~Oma's coming~
