First day

First day

About us

It is now my husband and I after many years of taking care of our family. Beginning with a wonderful son until he left home to become a Marine and as recently as taking care of my mother until her passing and all the life and love in between. We've been happily married since 1982 and I can hardly wait to see what the next 26 years brings. It's been a great ride!

Throwaway Thursday

  Gosh, here it is Thursday already! Time is flying by and yet I don't seem to get much done. What else is new? Yesterday T got the tractor/PTO going and was able to put hay out for the horses and move the other bales into a better configuration for getting more hay. Got gas delivered and taxes taken care of! Three big things on the list scratched off. Yay! I screwed up the taxes and had to file an amended one. Ohh, much better now. lol
  Speaking of lists, I need to scratch off a few things on my longer term list. Like getting the little baskets done for the stockings, the annual calendar etc etc. The time will get away from me like always.
  Almost time to start bringing in houseplants for the winter. Gotta spray them first and re-pot a couple with T's help. Guess that means I need to buy some potting soil. Boy, there is always something. As if you all didn't know that already.
This luna moth on Sandi's hand is just exquisite. They are so large and beautiful not to mention friendly.

As fast as time goes by, won't be too long for the guys are off to camp. Better start gather stuff now. haha

On the left of this wayback picture is none other than Ira Rethford! I can hardly see him in that skinny little fella!

And this one I wanted to share with you. He is Samuel Sprinkle - the Sprinkle that settled in Seligman and is buried there.  He was an interesting fella, don't you think? I believe he is a descendant of the "Silver Dollar" man as they call him. A Sprinkle minted his own money if memory serves, hence the name.
