Pa. trip goodies!

I will show some pictures of some of the flowers that I got on my trip to Pa. I would have loved to

taken  some pictures of the greenhouses, of all the beautiful flowers, but the Amish are private and do not like

us Englisher's taking pictures of them.

 I bought some fabric, but am saving it to make some bonnets and crafts. I will post them later, if

I ever have time to make them.

 And here is a prairie dress and apron that I bought. I have been wanting a prairie dress for a long time

to hang on a peg rack. I also bought a few other goodies that I will just show in one photo.

I bought some asparagus, we stopped at a road side stand and they were sold out so the little Amish boy,

just went right to his garden and picked me a bunch, you can't get no fresher than that. We always have to

get farmers cheese and Pa. Dutch Lebonnen bologna.

Lancaster Pa. Trip

Last Friday my BF Sheila and I made a quick trip to Lancaster, Pa. We went to several green houses, some prim shops and ate really good, lots of comfort food. And laughed alot which was a good thing.

I forgot to take a picture of us, this is Sheila and I.

I will post a few pictures of some of the Amish, and some pictures later of some of my purchases.

More Swap Goodies!

Amy http://bumblebeelanecottage.blogspot.com/ and I did a swap. She sent me some really awesome prim

goodies. She sent me a scoop, ragballs, heart with raggedy, candy, prim towel , and a rooster that she made

out of beeswax. ( She also made the rag balls.)

 Amy is one talented girl and such an awesome prim decorator. She is a sweetie and I am glad she is my

prim friend. Thanks Amy, I love everything!!!

Happy Mother's Day!

I want to wish all my blogging friends that are Mother's and Grandmothers a, "Happy Mother's Day"!

 As I get older I realize more and more the true unshelfish love that a mother has.

 My mother was only 23 when she had 4 children. She came from a family of 11 and my grandfather was an

alcoholic. My mother was determined that her children would have a better life than her.

  She worked so hard, my parents lived on a chicken farm, she had big gardens and would can everything

she could get her hands on so we would have wonderful food for the Winter.

 She taught me and my siblings about sharing, love and caring for other people. She made sure we went to

Sunday school and on Easter, had a new frilly dress and patent leather shoes. He He She would allow me to

have 3 of my school friend spend the night at one time. She was so proud of us when we graduated from highschool.

My mom always did without so that we could have, she is a very private woman. She is an inspriration to me. My mother's love and sacrifice is what helped mold me into the person that I am today!

I would be proud to be half the woman that she is. I love my mom very much and know as her and my dad

are getting older that I won't have them forever, so I cherish each day!

I love you mom and Happy Mother's Day!
