Home Sweet Home....For Now

This is where we will call home for the next year. When we moved into the house it needed a lot of outside work; trimming trees and bushes, pulling weeds, getting the dandelions and clover out of the lawn, etc....etc. We've worked pretty hard and it's now looking and feeling more like home. (Our neighbors must think the pregnant lady down the road never gets dressed up, or does her hair, or wears any make-up; they see me in my grubbies pulling weeds most days!!)
The planter in front of the house needed a lot of work. Hoyt and I spent days pulling weeds - he thought it was great fun! Every morning he would ask me if we were going outside to do "yard work"!

The front entry with a little Halloween decor. Hoyt is taking a picture with his cell phone!

A view of the back of the house - we have enjoyed the covered patio now that we've gotten rid of hornets nests and spiders!!

AND...our favorite view out back. You can't see the horses in this picture, but they are just beyond the white fence. Ryon loves being able to look out back and see his horses grazing - he is truly in his "Promised Land"!

What a beautiful home and yard! You have truly made it your own, haven't you? It is a wonderful thing to realize that with a good attitude and tons of work, you can make a happy home no matter where you go!
