Driveway Daisies

This weekend I went picking for flowers.....

in my driveway.

These little beauties are what I like to call "Driveway Daisies".

Our driveway is a pebble road and these grow along the sides....naturally.

To me...they are the epitome of farmhouse flowers.

The best place to pick wildflowers.....my driveway.....if you ask me.

Just a quick note for any Firefox users...our website is A-okay and working fine now. Thanks!

And The Winner Is....

My choice of random number generator....is my lil' buddy.

And he chose lucky number 7....Deb from Posted From Home. Congratulations Deb!

Happy 4th of July

Iowa or Bust

On Father's Day weekend...every year...Walnut, Iowa becomes flea market heaven. This tiny town is overrun with white tents and funnel cake...and is a treasure hunters dream. Having lived in the midwest for 3 1/2 years, I'm ashamed to say this is my first visit to the great show....but according to Mr. Plains, will be a yearly event. So...why don't you come walk the cobble streets of Walnut with me...

I'm soooo loving old bowling pins.

See...here are some more....lov'em!


I'm also loving how all these old softballs look together....I brought lots of these home with me.

Thanks for walking with me....sorry there aren't more pictures to share....but I was too busy saying...Oh....Ah....

xoxo
