It seems just like I was creating a bouquet for the month of April. Where has the time gone? My garden is in full bloom, but all I seem to see when I look outside is some plants in need of a bit of pruning 😉 I have had some exciting events occur in my […]
In my last post, I showed you how my vegetable garden had gone crazy growing a multitude of different vegetables. I had the remainder of my winter vegetables ready to harvest as well as pull out. So over the weekend, I put my kids to work helping me in the garden. First off, I had […]

I wish I could share with you personally, how wonderful our trip has been so far. I have enjoyed the natural beauty, the towns and the people of the Midwest. To date, we have traveled from Michigan, Indiana and now we are in Springfield, Illinois. We spent our morning in the darling town of Noblesville, […]
Well, we have had a wonderful time on our Midwest sojourn so far. Sunday morning, we left Holland, Michigan and started our trek down to Indiana. Now, the point of our trip was to get to know the Midwest – its people, towns and countryside. Well, you cannot get a good feel for a place […]
