Happy Wednesday, y’all! The shed is coming along but not quite where I’d like it to be to be able to share the inside, so hopefully next week. 😉 Other than that, we had a quiet Labor Day weekend and just worked on getting the backyard into shape and more things moved into the shed.
I did however get out in the garden and shoot some evening plant photography! Hope you’ll stop by and check out my little garden. <3
So with that, let’s get this party started…
Here’s what I shared this past week atFrench Ethereal…
Fall is a good time for completing small projects, like this upcycled basket by MaryJo of Master “Pieces” of My Life ~ Weathered Baskets DIY. Love it!!!
Sandy from Dinner at Eight shared her 2021 planting story in this post ~ The Backyard Landscape – First Phase. You’ll love Sandy’s labrador puppy! He’s very cute!! ;)’
Niky from The House on Silverado speaks my language here with this post on How to Dry Hydrangeas the Easy Way. I just successfully got a small bouquet to dry perfectly since moving here to Texas! Excited to share this post so you can learn how, too. <3
I am loving Penny of Penny’s Treasures new look in her kitchen!!! I think many of us have been cleaning and clearing out this year and Penny explains what all she has done in this post ~ Less is More Wall Decor, New Snack Bar Chairs and a Fall Tour.
I am loving this post by newcomer Sinziana from Coffee Time Classics called 365 Days of Lifestyle Photography – Week 3. Fun photos and lots of good information, plus a challenge we can all jump into! Come check it out… 🙂 And welcome, Sinziana!!

This past week I’ve been over to McKinney with my mother- and sister-in-law visiting a friend of Jodi’s who moved there back about 20 years ago. Gini and I went over to the City of McKinney’s Vital Statistics building and happily found a microfiche of her grandfather and grandmother’s marriage license from 1897!
On Friday evening, we went to a Texas Rangers’ game down in Arlington. They ended up losing but we enjoyed getting out and trying some ballpark foods and listening to the crowds and announcer, and enjoying the ballgame live.
Saturday was a workday and Gini, Jodi and Corey (my nephew, who flew in on Friday morning) drove over to Farmersville to watch an IOOF and a group of local re-enactors honoring of an 1812 soldier from the area. Because of the busy week, I didn’t go but I would have enjoyed the ceremony. I slept all Saturday afternoon.
My mother-in-law Gini, sister-in-law Jodi and hubby Charles
Corey showing off his perfect pizza!
Sunday we enjoyed baking homemade pizzas out in the Ooni and then we worked on a satin banner project Gini is making for a future IOOF ceremony.
This banner will have a purple backing and other images placed around it and wording at the top and bottom. Should be neat when it is all done!
Since Monday, I’ve been down with a cold or Covid-type feeling illness… If it is Covid related, two days on, the vaccine is beating it down and I am feeling better today. 🙂
And thank you, friends! We had 84 links up last week, and there were so many good posts to look through to feature. Keep ’em coming!…
Here’s what I shared this past week atFrench Ethereal…
Debbie from Debbie-Dabble Blog shares her home decorated for the upcoming 4th of July celebrations in this pretty RWB post ~ A Little Bit More RWB in the Living Room. Love love love this wreath!!!
Kippi of Kippi at Home shared her really in-depth instructions to make these Easy DIY Gnomes [Tutorial]. Totally cute and perfect for us to create this summer for all the seasons coming up!
Awwwww! Puppy Challenges in the Garden was shared by Sandra from Come to Dinner at Eight. Puppies are a challenge but with time and good correction, all puppies can turn into the best dogs! Come check out this sweet post {and isn’t Finnegan just cute??!}…
Perfect as a follow-up, this post from Kelli at 3 Boys and a Dog looks like a fun recipe to make for your favorite furry friends! ~ Easy Strawberry Cheesecake Puppy Chow.
Vintage Botanical Print in the Early Summer Entry is this week’s share from Debra over at Common Ground. I love Debra’s wonderful mélange of goodies she puts together each season here in here entry, and I bet you do, too.
Lori over at Dinner for Eight shared her stunning table set for summer in this post ~ Blueberry Bliss Summer Tablescape. Love the soft blues!
Last up for this week is Amber from Follow the Yellow Brick Home sharing her finished kitchen remodel in this post ~ Cheerful Summer Kitchen Refresh. Love the bright pops of color for the season!

Happily this week I have some news on our new garden shed! I received a text this week from Wolf Valley Buildings.com wanting to schedule our shed’s arrival, so… Now it’s all about prepping the site and removing all the junk in that area, including the current shed.
Next, as you will see here, I finished the painting in our master bedroom and bathroom. What a big project! As any of you painters out there know, it was about 100 hours from start to finish for the three areas of commode, bathroom and the 15′ x 17′ bedroom with 14′ ceilings at the peak. The crown moulding had never been painted in any of the areas and was put up with just original primer on it, so that all needed special attention. I didn’t get rid of the “alligatoring” from humidity like I should have in the bathroom area, but will another time. I wanted to finish before my mother-in-law and sister-in-law arrived. They are here now and the bedroom was finished this Friday.
So now it’s back to focusing on the garden with prep for the garden shed!… :💜
Here’s what I shared this past week atFrench Ethereal…
I HAD to add this post from Tiffany (Tee) from TeeDiddlyDee as I am still just as horse-crazy as I ever was as a kid. Meet D’artagnan, Our Gentle Giant ~ an incredibly gorgeous horse in his prime.
Niky from The House on Silverado shared this sweet bench ~ DIY Garden Bench Makeover. Fun project!!!
Renae from Peacock Ridge Farm shared a restyling for the 4th in this post ~ A Fourth of July Hutch Refresh. Beautiful!!! Love the ironstone and flow blue…

How muchis that doggie in the window? So sings the song and it was especially apropos on this early fall snow day at our son and daughter-in-love’s home.
Our trip to South Dakota just a short time ago was plumb packed with apple picking,
Mall of America shopping and lots of photographic moments like this one.
Come along as we enjoy a little fall snow fun!…
Snow is enchanting when there is just a dusting of it on the ground ~ it is a bit magical with each tiny snowflake sparkling as the sun peaks through the clouds and sets it aglow.
Our son and daughter-in-law’s dogs were excited to go out and play in the snow as was I.
***
Snow is also fun to enjoy from a dog’s point of view.
;)’
Luna~ part Siberian Husky, collie and sheltie, if I remember right. She has the long nose and a collie’s face with those pale blue husky’s eyes! Striking!!!
Part of what I wanted to accomplish while I was visiting was to try and capture Luna and Bandit’s expressions.
Bandit~ like his name, he is hard to photograph. A bit shy and very quick, I had to focus on his body where I thought his face would be later and click-click to get him to turn. Love this of him!
I started taking pictures the first morning after we arrived.
This photo of Luna I had to sharpen ~ she moved ever so slightly as the shutter clicked. Also added a bit of blue to her eyes, backed off the whites and highlights. Decreased the blacks. 🙂
The lead photograph for this post says it all.
Luna and Bandit are best friends; attached
at the hip.
Where one goes so does the other.
🙂
Happy with these pics I then went on to shoot pics
of the October snow day outside.
According to the weatherman this day and snowfall tie the record for the earliest day since recorded snow in Sioux Falls history.
This was just a study of leaves and eaves.
Ha ha, pun not intended.
😉
I love how the snow highlights the rolled up
garden hose…
Pristine snow and leaden skies with just a
hint of blue…
“Home”
The doormat says it all…
A neighbor’s cute entryway.
How much is that doggie in our homes’ windows
waiting patiently for us to return each day ~ our best sparkling home decor ever??
Priceless!

Apparentlythey were invented to keep critters from
wandering into Dutch homes and kitchens since screen doors
weren’t yet invented and though they were created in Holland
they were really a bit hit here in America.
Here’s a neat article on Dutch doors for you to check out.
Solvang is a great little town that after you’ve parked
you can pretty much walk everywhere to dine and shop.
Here Kathy is leading us on a quick tour around to see
a few other shops.
Oh, and there are a number bed’n’breakfast
places and hotels in Solvang to stay at, too.
From here we drove back to Kathy’s lovely home but
before we go here are a few last photos of Solvang and one
on the way driving through an ethereal allée of trees!!!

Our headline photograph from above, again ~ here you can see the lovely ethereal blouses and some of their beautiful white on white antiques and vintage goods displayed
The next day afters spending the late afternoon having
tea and cherry scones for a snack instead of dinner
{We were still full from lunch, really.} and then talking until
late in the evening about decorating and all the
things Kathy and her husband Ken have been updating
For me it was chandelier heaven!Each was unique and
other than this next really large one ($995 on sale) and
another really beautiful French chandelier
most were in the range of $120 – $350 or so.
Colorful candles, mugs, pretty jewelry, curated clothing and unique chandeliers all for sale along with spoon rings ~ Posies has something for everyone who comes through their doors for a visit.
Gardens are such special places and getting to see how
my friends Julie and Jim’s gardens were coming along was a
real treat on my recent visit to California…
Jim added the shade cover to their vegetable garden to protect the plants there from the harsh
and intense California summer sunshine. Great idea to incorporate in our gardens!
Jim purchased the beautiful red barn {top lead photograph above}
and then builtit towards the left-back part of their property
in the Wildomar/Lake Elsinore area of Southern California.
*Update: Julie just FB me and said Jim built this lovely barn from scratch. I am not surprised as he is a terrific carpenter.
🙂
Being that their property is quite wide and is deep ~ nearing a half-acre with a covered porch set up against the eastern-facing back-yard, a large swimming pool to the immediate right and traveling back down along the fence line, bougainvillea along the chainlink fence separating their yard from their neighbors and many lovely rose bushes planted in-front of the bougainvillea,
Jim and Julie were able to do a lot with their yard.
Their next big plans are to add a retaining wall running down the left side of the yard and to plant it with oleander bushes, which grow really big in California and will create a nice privacy screen
with their left-side neighbors.
Don’t ask why I didn’t take any photographs of the rest of the yard for you ~ I have no idea why except I was there just to visit initially and then Julie suggested we go on a tour.
That’s how we ended up upstairs seeing her home’s
gorgeous bathroom!
I’ve been to their home many times over the past decade for
teas that Julie has hosted and often just to visit or to pick her up
on our way as a group to go antique browsing or out to lunch.
So, at some point I can share more of their beautiful home
and gardens through other photographs I’ve taken back when we were all getting our photographs printed.
🙂
Two sweet chickens who are friendly and enjoy being picked up and cuddled ~ Rhoda (L), a Rhode Island red and Mr. Clara (R), in the apron, and who was originally thought to be a female. Lol! The Barred Rock chicken below is Maddie.
Today it’s all about the chickens
These girls are gorgeous in their black and white feathers
and their shiny red combs.
I just looked them up and I think the black and white
chickens are of the Barred Rock breed which are good
egg layers and produce large white eggs.
Here’s a link I found talking about types of chickens that I
found useful in trying to identify these fluffy girls.
Another friend in Northern California who also raises chickens
and whom I went on a long hike back several years ago
says that the way to sex a chicken is by their tails ~
roosters have curved tail feathers as compared to the
straighter female’s feathers.
Julie was telling me a while back that she makes little
“aprons” for her chickens to keep them from getting
picked on by the other birds.
Unfortunately I guess chickens do this a lot as several of
her birds are in separate chicken pens due to having
been picked on.
🙁
Guess that’s where being hen-pecked comes from…
😉
*Here’s a link to pick up some chicken aprons of your own
if you need some:
I am an Amazon affiliate and if you purchase something from me I will earn a small commission on it ~ please see my full disclosure HERE. Thank you!
\Aren’t they the cutest??!
I kept trying to get this one chicken to turn so I could get a good picture of her sweet pink apron but she wasn’t budging.
Oh, well!
I loved the big red chicken barn with it’s places to roost ~
now Julie just needs a sweet chandelier to make her chicken’s
home a little “chicken chateau!”
😉
Seriously, though, their farmyard garden is a working garden and the chickens are providing eggs for friends and family.
The vegetable side of the garden has pole runner beans, a variety
of lettuces and even tomatoes currently growing in the
Southern California warm winter sunshine!
I have been hankering for a fresh homegrown tomato and if
they had been ripe I would have asked to eat one.
🙂
Just a quick post today as that’s all the photos I have for you
from their garden.
Hope you’ve enjoyed the tour!

their guest bathroom upstairs after a pipe burst and caused
some flooding and she is graciously letting me share
the amazing results with you!
Little Miss Daisy checking out the bathroom with us ~ love this wallpaper!
So bright and airy this lovely bathroom is stunning with
a new marble countertop, clawfoot tub, light creamy white beadboard under the wainscot moulding ~ really a bath lover’s dream!
Jim is a retired carpenter by trade and the man who along
with my son rebuilt our patio cover several years ago.
Jim effortlessly added chair rail moulding to this bathroom and
in all of the other rooms of their home plus he laid the floor tiles here and in their two other bathrooms.
Julie mightkill me for printing this picture of her
but it really shows off her bathroom to its best advantage and as she had been outside gardening all afternoon and wasn’t expecting a visitor…
I told her no one would mind seeing her this way as she is always
beautiful no matter what.
You can see a really nice photograph of Julie on my
sidebar in the Follow on Google + link.
🙂
Seriously, though, isn’t this vanity stunning??! I gasped when
I first saw it ~ then I found out she and her hubby bought it
on Ebay…
Can you believe it?!
I definitely am going to check it out if it’s still available
as I’d love to pick one or two up.
They actually purchased four of the same vanity ~
the one for this bathroom, two for their master bathroom
and one for their downstairs powder room.
By buying four, they were able to get the cost down
plus insurance picked up some of the costs with
the renovations due to the damage.
There were actually two different water pipe breaks and the
bathroom I am sharing today was the first break several years ago
but this room wasn’t fully remodeled until the second waterline
break this past year.
The second break occurred in their master bathroom causing
damage there and also to their powder room directly
right below downstairs
so…
This is how they ended up with four of the same gorgeous
vanities which look seamless throughout.
Julie loves Shabby Chic and all the whites mixed in
so it’s no wonder her bathrooms all look lovely with white
painted antique furniture and roses strewn here and there
in luscious wallpaper borders and in her favorite china pieces.
Julie also loves blue and her downstairs has Victorian furniture
and blue carpeting but after eight years or so of living in this
home she said she is ready for some changes.
I didn’ttake any photographs downstairs this time but I did capture their front yard from the porch and some of the roses
she hasn’t yet cut back for the season.
It’s sooo hard to know when to cut back roses in Southern California as some of the best growing times for roses are
during the winter!
🙂
A little cherub wall pocket hanging outside the bathroom.
Here is one of their spare bedrooms and it is devoted to sharing Julie’s dolls which belonged to her mother and grandmother and also a sweet hexagonal paper pieced flower quilt hand-sewn
by her grandmother almost a century ago.
Bright and airy and turn of the last century this look is
Victorian and timeless.
Here’s little Miss Daisy
I just loved her sweet face and personality ~ she is a very
gentle Maltese/toy poodle mix and was so photogenic
that I had to snap a quick photo of her.
Daisy looks adorable sharing the lovely tile flooring and
this sweet bathmat with you.

My former home’s backyard garden in Murrieta, California the year before we sold our home.
Giving Thanks
We have much to be grateful for ~ the least of which
is that we weren’t homeless over the past two
years while Hubby was out of his normal work.
We made it through having to sell what I thought
was our “forever home” and instead took up
a slightly nomadic life
living in a 27′ Coleman travel trailer for about
1 1/2 years before we traded it in for our new 41′ fifth wheel which we love for its room!
Looking west over neighboring rv’s here in North Central Texas.
Just a few photos from earlier this fall of my
kitchen and dining areas.
The lemon poppy seed cake on the back counter
is one I often bake when having friends
over for tea.
The garden area in September just after putting in the little square stepping stones.
Our little prairie rv home
This is the garden area just outside our fifth-wheel.
We had no “pop-outs” on the previous trailer so we were
really cramped and constantly having to move a box
to sit down to eat, watch tv, to do anything.
In this beauty, we have the luxury of five slides which makes
the inside about 16′ wide throughout most of the trailer.
It is really a small apartment in many ways.
We are staying nomadic for just a little while longer as we
begin looking for land and a house.
🙂
My friend Peggy came for an impromptu tea one day recently.
“One is silver and the Other is gold”
I am thankful also for my “old friends” in California, whom I can visit with anytime via Facebook and Instagram, and I am thankful for the “new friends” I have made since moving here to Texas. I believe God has provided for this need for friendship with park owners who really care in every sense of the word for the people and animals who live here.
Little Skidboot at his first shearing. He is one of 13 alpacas here at Wagon Master RV Park and Alpaca Farm, Sanger, Texas.
It is a great blessing for everyone here, whether as short-term campers or as extended-stay residents, to be able to stay here. The owners really act as caretakers of the land and have a heart for people. 🙂
A tablesetting I did earlier this fall.
New beginnings We are grateful for a chance to start over and work on rebuilding our nest egg. We also are rebuilding our household ~ of which this “prairie home fifth-wheel” is a big part. Traveling to new places as I work on making my little blog into a real business is also an exciting part of the new here in Texas! I am grateful for the chance to do something I love full-time. 🙂
A recent Thanksgiving tablesetting with pumpkins and pansies.
Grateful for the little things Mostly I am grateful for all the little things which have “coincidentally happened” this past year… Our daughter moving to Texas before we did to move out and live with her friend then… my husband finding and getting his new position also here in Texas. Or like last Christmas time when I found a J Broadhurst Constable series set of china minus the lid for the teapot in an antique mall I just happened to visit for the first time. It had been in my heart for many years to have a set of pinkish-red china like this as it so beautiful to me. God knew it and led me to it! Of this, I have no doubt. Lastly, for meeting a new group of friends and a Bible study being offered here at the park and farm by a new wonderful friend.
Coincidence?
I don’t think these things are coincidences.
I believe they are gifts and blessings from our
Great Creator.
I hope you do, too.
😉

Just about a month ago now, my husband took a week’s vacation and we took advantage of the time to go on a mini vacation first catching a Texas Ranger’s ballgame. {They won!}
After the game, we drove just a half-hour away to Old Fort Worth just west of Dallas to the famous stockyards area where cattle were rounded up and shipped across country east and west.
Summer school students out on a field trip enjoyed watching the cattle drive.
The Stockyards
Famous as “The beginnings of the West” as the description on the
Fort Worth Stockyards National Historic District website online says, the area boasts original cow pens, a railyard turnstile for turning engines around when heading a shipment of cattle east out to all points across country, wonderful old brick and limestone buildings with tall false fronts popular during the heyday of western expansion, and of course those famous Texas animals, the Texas longhorns, who walk the length of East Exchange Avenue two times a day to the delight of visitors.
Things to See and Do
The twice daily cattle drive at 11:00am and 4:00pm, the Stockyards have plenty to see and do. Everything centers around the history of the cattle drives and America’s western expansion.
Several museums cover the local history of Fort Worth and one of those is a large museum called The Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame devoted to modes of travel during the mid to late 1800’s and up until the 1920’s or so. This museum also houses booths sharing historical snippets and memorabilia of famous Texans from rodeo, stage and movie stars who have ties to the the Fort Worth and Dallas area.
As you come into this carriage museum, the first thing you see is
Roy Rogers’ beautiful palomino horse forever rearing as a living testimony to the raw awesome beauty and danger of the Old West.
Roy Rogers’ beloved Trigger ~ He lived a good life performing in 188 movies and living 33 years. Sorry some of these photos are blurry ~ all were taken with my iPhone as my Canon’s memory card was full…
Just like on Hollywood, California’s famous sidewalks, Fort Worth also has its stars!
Famous rodeo rider
These are just a few of the photographs I saw in the museum’s Famous Texans area in individual booths. I’ll share more of that next week when I share the museum itself.
Recognize this really famous fellow??? Give you a hint: Think “Men in Black” and “The Fugitive.”
In addition, cowboys roam the streets on horseback and will answer any questions visitors have about Texas and the heyday of cattle driving. These same cowhorns will bring Texas longhorns out throughout the day and park them under tree-shaded areas for visitors to come and sit on for photo opportunities.
Shopping and Restaurants
Stores are open for patrons to shop for everything Texas and to buy Texas mementos. This also includes vintage and new boots and gear. Some shops cater specifically to all new bootwear ~ some will even take custom orders as in days of old! I saw both new and used boot shops with vintage and new clothing as well. Hubby purchased a new pair of boots that fit like a glove! and I’ll share about that in an upcoming post on Shopping in Fort Worth.
Cool Texas wall art inside Cavender’s Boot City, Fort Worth.
There are burger places, bars and sit-down restaurants for every budget and we ate at several. This is the place we had lunch on the Friday we watched the cattle drive, a little sit-down burger joint of whose name I didn’t catch. It’s inside the stockyards covered shopping area, though! 🙂
Artwork up on the wall inside this burger place ~ pretty cool!
Well that’s it for now! Next week I’ll share
the museum and a really lovely spunky Texas
shopping mecca for Texas-style women’s clothing ~
the fun and funky
Sassy Pantz!
{hint: It’s where I picked up that really cute ruffly blouse cum tanktop!}
