My Nephew

Picture of my nephew and his bride to be. The big day is September 18th. Which will be the day that my husband and I started dating 33 yrs. ago. (77)

The pictures are their engagement poses that one of their friends put together and gave to them.

The 2 Ryans

My son Ryan (will be 26 in a couple months) is the brown headed and the blonde Ryan (24 1/2) is daughter's finacee. (together 7 1/2 yrs.. Engaged 5 months.)

This was at my nephew's bridal shower last week-end. Several men were there. He got several gifts for himself such as screwdrivers, grease gun, and a vice.

In the past my son dated an Amye for quite awhile and my daughter is Jaymee. That was a tongue twister when all 4 was together.

Hummers

This year we have about 17 hummingbirds. Normally we have 6-7 feeders up but only did 3 this year. Since about the middle of July we have gained several more birds. These pictures are taken from inside my frontroom windows. We fill these feeders daily. Had them all in seperate places but they preferred the one so moved the others out there too.

Side yard to the East

I love it when corn is planted around us. It is to the East and then across the road in front of the other patch. Then behind us is CRP and woods, west woods and directly across the road woods. Road is in front of the corn field.

Potatoes

We got our spuds out Sunday morning. This year (have did this before a few times) we planted them on top the ground and just strawed them very heavy. Lift the straw up and so easy to pick up. Had to dig very little. They grow smoother it seems this way.

What is cooking

This is the salsa mixture before 10 pounds of tomatoes are added. The last batch we did on Sunday I followed the recipe but added 1 habarnero. (sp. bad) I use the seeds with all peppers but the green peppers. Everybody seems to really like this batch. Alittle spicer but not overly.
