    Sarah's beautiful flower tatoos done by her very talented boyfriend John. These are Dylan and Victoria's birth month flowers and they are so beautiful! I love that they have that connection because they all live so far away from each other. Way to go John for doing such a fabulous job! I'm sure it is stunning in person and I am hoping to be able to experience that soon! Miss you sweetie :) xoxoxoxoxoxox

    Hibiscus

    Hibiscus
    One of my favorite flowers but never have any luck growing them! This time I have taken the time to read up on them. Well I found out that they have a dormant period in the winter and lose their leaves. Because they are dormant they don't need much water. Guess what I was doing to them? Oh yeah I was watering the heck out of them thinking they were dying! LOL DUH!!!! So maybe research before buying is a good thing! haha I'll keep you posted on how this one does!

    Olden Days

    This makes me feel nostalgic! I love to see these old tractors but makes me kinda sad too. Times are a changin'!

    Love this spot!

    Love this spot!
    So sad when a beautiful piece of property like this one succumbs to the modern world. This land will soon house a movie theater and some commercial stores! :(
