the whites..........

it is a well known fact that our house is dark..........i like dark wood patina.....dark fabrics.........low watt bulbs.....dark wools......dark coverlets.......dark chocolate (gosh where did that come from!).......but........this is one exception.......my Mom's white ironstone............it is so not me....but i have so come to love it.............it takes a prominent location in the dining room, with the dark floor....dark walls.....dark furniture...............but so gives me a feeling of joy....sunshine.....and bright new beginnings for every day!
.................................................................... i am blessed !

things of open house.......

our youngest daughter and her three little ones surprised us for the second day of openhouse......first time we have all been together in months..............Grammy's helpers (taking a break)
 hot spiced tea........popcorn.......m&m's..............................the openhouse must haves......!

i have always wanted a picture of the cars lined up during openhouse.........i have always been told, how long the line is.....................always too busy to take a peek, and too busy to have anyone snap the picture.........this is the third day, so the crowd was a little slower.....but sweet mr. prairie blue, grabbed the camera for this shot................................................
now.....................time for life to get somewhat back to normal.........................you know what that means?...............fixing the leaky faucet....sink....paint the countertop (which began today).......the mr. is getting better every day......went back to work........................................so let's get this place fixed!!!
.................................................................................... i am blessed !
