Your horses are so beautiful!! I've never been horseback riding, sad to say. I love horses and am so happy to see that your two got a loving home.

They weren't done properly when first built and are looking rather poorly.<br />One of my dreams is to have a screened in porch. I think it would be so lovely and heavenly to be protected from pesky little winged critters!! ;)<br />Have a great weekend~❁Velma ~Down Our Country Road❁https://www.blogger.com/profile/00688975970842662227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5672117109679216195.post-39845501943426096592012-01-13T18:09:26.021-06:002012-01-13T18:09:26.021-06:00I loved seeing the photos of the inside of your ho...I loved seeing the photos of the inside of your house!

Hubby has a cousing who has a pig farm, and hubby goes and loads the truck down every spring when he is getting the garden ready. I know, it doesn't sound wonderful, but that is just life.

Maybe you'll come across another old window frame to re-insert it. If not, it's gorgeous as it is. With your decorating knack, I know you'll put it in exactly the right spot! You're in pretty good shape already and I know tending to the horses and their "needs" will finish that off! Enjoy them! Have a wonderfully blessed day!

Not a redo but fresh paint. I need new counter tops but I don't think it will happen this year. The main thing for the Summer is the potting shed. I can't do a whole lot to it, but will do what I can. <br />Have fun painting!!<br />It sounds like Winter is on it's way. I am glad you were able to get out and enjoy this wonderful weather.
