Obi-Wan Kenobi and a pretty ginger...in my backyard


















Always, always thankful for visitors at our new home.
Bonus when they show up at 6am ready for a Lowe's trip and a full day of burly man productivity. 
Yep - ultra blessed with such wonderful friends!
New fence posts are all set.
Redneck limb trimming ensued.
More sun for our garden.
Sweet visit from our Merv!
Us girls squeezed in a quick trip to the mall because Mike is apparently all too rugged and has holes in all of his jeans.
Our back .4 is coming along so nicely.
I admit, I'm kinda obsessed with our Poplar tree.
We've been collecting plants all week and can't wait to put our Ag degrees to some more good use (:

Sweet Sully







Love my sweet boy.
Loyal to a fault and chill as a cucumber.
Love your pink nose, football head, instant enthusiasm, crazy swimming and willingness to fetch 1000 times in a row.
Always at the top of my happy list, bud.

Our yard, the back .4



















Not quite the pastures we're used to, but quite the upgrade...our own little back .4!
Mike's ripped up the existing fence. 
Two pines down.
New resting spot for the shed.
Putting green has got to go.
Some tiny details to stay.
Bobcat always, always well-represented.
Spring can stay, too, minus my out.of.control allergies.

Weekend plans are to finish our new fence and raised garden bed.
And chicken coop is to come. 
Gotta go - I hear a banjo (:

First little taste of home sweet home






Renters no more.
Kitchen always comes first.
Sully's lovin' his breezy, kitchen-door-wide-open Spring mornings.
Sweet handmade curtains from a dear friend make this view my current happy place.
Can't wait to get down to the tiny details of making our first house our home. 

I'll post pictures of the house soon...after a nap or two.
Unless you are really fond of cardboard boxes.

PTL for blessing us far beyond what we deserve.
Use us and our little home sweet.
