A full drive way...all the kids were here for dinner. A beautiful Sunday of family. My son made dinner and I strawberry shortcake. Played a few games...and enjoyed each others company.
My husband spotted this truck, for the Western Plow it was attached to. He bought the truck to rescue the plow, and my son rescued the truck. Added new tires, is painting the rims and with a few odd parts from the junk yard, this truck is taking shape. He is his father's son. Soon it will be road worthy. Once the plow is restored, it will be for sale...the truck looks like it found the right boy.
Our tomato plants just getting in the ground. The gentleman who started these plants, said to plant them, by laying them down and burying the first six inches of the stem, and that by morning or in a day or so, they will be standing upright, and the root system will be bigger and stronger.
You can tell by this picture, that the plants are good size, until we bury half of them. We are late, but I am hopeful that we will get enough for Salsa come fall.
This spot was grass the year before, or actually a piece of ground we didn't mow, for it was forgotten and overgrown....now it is cleared and will act as a salsa growing spot. The very thing we don't need is more grass to cut, but it sure looks nice. We have to put up cages to protect the plants from deer. We also planted Green Peppers.
And I even squeezed in time to play with fabric. This is for a challenge, we had to use a specific fabric, but we could do what ever design. Of course, the easiest for me is to use it with the Lady.
I wish you could see the metalic thread I used in the background behind the Lady....I broke three needles, for I am sure, you are suppose to use a special needle, that I didn't have. I love the affect when it is in the light, it shimmers, just a bit.
A day full of what I love. Family, nature and quilting...a very Full Sunday!
