I JUST COULD NOT RESIST

I have a drawer full of old photos. Today Aspen and I were looking through them and look at the treasure I found. Do you see anyone you recognize? You will have to click on the photo to enlarge it. Easier for me to do them in a collage than try to up load them all. Some of the photos were dated 1977-78. I am pretty sure all of them were from that time.

MISS AMERICA'S IN THE MAKING

This is really work on NANA!!!!!!!

Both the girls were in the Miss Magnolia Pageant in Kirbyville today.

They really like getting to wear MAKE-UP, and dressing up in BEAUTIFUL clothes. It's a lot of work on me. By the time I fix their hair, do make-up and get them dressed I am wore out. But, it is all worth it at the end of the day just to see their beautiful smiling faces.

UNWANTED GUEST-LOOKING FOR A FREE MEAL

This is my goldfish pond in the front yard. It is very enjoyable this time of year. We sit on the swing and listen to the water and watch hummingbirds. But along with spring, come SNAKES. I have never been afraid of them but, I get pretty upset when they set their sites in my koi for supper.

This is a biological filter I built to keep the water crystal clear. It has a 3" water space at the bottom, then a layer of lava rock. The top layer is pea gravel. The water circulates from the pond to the white PVC pipe in the middle, and filters up through the rock down the waterfall and back in the pond. This is where my guest was patiently scoping out his supper.

But I found him first.
