This year was a year of firsts for us at the Homestead, 1st year for having bunnies in our family, 1st year for a garden, 1st year to try canning pickles and salsa, 1st year to have wheat in the field behind us and 1st year that I was able to grow flowers from seeds and have fresh cut flowers out of my garden for in the house! <br />
<br /><br />
Looking forward to expanding the garden next year since this year has been such a success & trying out more canning. Hoping next year we'll be able to expand our little domestic farm by adding some laying hens!! <br />

I have enjoyed this summer already because things are coming up so well and my yard has finally come to a finish. Now it's time to sit back & enjoy the hard work that my hubby & I have done around our home!<br />

Things have been busy with life and the kids well they just keep growing. <br />
<br /><br />
We have added lots of new things to the yard plus changed things! If your a prim addict like me you'll understand that change is always occurring around our homes! I have discussed with my hubby that the flower beds are now complete in our yard and that there will be no more added. It's a lot of work for us and I usually spend May & June getting them all cleaned but it's what I love doing after a long cold snowy winter! <br />
<br /><br />
Today marks the first day of summer so with that I thought I would post some pictures from around our yard. I still have many more to take and will do that this week and add them at a later date (later not meaning 2 years from now!) but soon. <br />

Last week was so hot you couldn't stand to be outside, now today is so beautiful you don't want to be inside. When I woke up this morning it was only 60 degrees out and actually kind of teased me that it could be fall. <br />
<br />
I am a huge fall lover and can't wait for the season to come. I know, I know don't rush the summer while to be honest if it stays like this then I'll be ok with it hanging around a little longer but if the humidity comes back then I won't be upset to say bye bye to it.<br />
<br />
I am trying to post a little more but for some reason I don't feel like I have much to post about anymore and seeing that not many people are using blogger I feel like what's the point. But I am going to continue on with posting when I can and if people read it then great if not then at least I can look back at it!!! <br />
<br />
So with this I will leave you with some beautiful fall pics <br />

I feel horrible for not even posting any garden or fall photos. I have been busy in a new job & just didn't feel like I had much to say or post about let alone not much time like I used to have. Like most people my poor blog went on the back burner. <br />
<br />
Well now I am back & have a ton of christmas decor to show you all. I completed all my decor inside & out just shortly after rememberance day. Outside just got wrapped up on Tuesday night which I am so happy I took the time to do it b/c now it's cold with snow flying through the air. <br />
<br />
Grab a cup of something warm & take a peek at my christmas decorating. Please forgive me my photography isn't that great and I haven't even edited anything because once again that would take way to much time for me to do them all so they are just kind of snapped quickly so I could post.<br />

I called my kids up stairs to see the 2 Robin's sitting in the tree's. Every Spring I always let the kids know when Spring is getting near and the Robin's will be re-locating back to our neighbourhood. So this morning once I heard the bird singing I called the kids to come see it. They were so excited to see the birds come back that they made us late from leaving the house!<br /><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div>Ah it makes me feel refreshed to know that these little guys are back.......</div><br /><br /><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5717151031710095234" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 242px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZVfy5aDHjWAfKnLq4aFM2mqx_xsbpGJYQAdkrKWUwUboB0_maArtAn65o2j9eEiysX-t1TBA2OzpAN1WGf03tttdH-vzQ-t5drZpB5JgHW2bkIWIjPSrse7o-1i1_e3vHDIDIkP-mqTY/s320/robin.jpg" border="0" /></div></div></div></div><br /><br /><p>And these will soon turn into...................................</p><br /><p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5717151035487373090" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjA5ZUSEc6dYqN6rSta2OzIe4Ci2oVs_istc79Svit0SLgk4GGX0ljLB8ergkg02dxK7DWVy7xMRAv895JKHetLJodgBu71thimNw92Qwlc8YRpQNkfse6RH7oSoDqtFpWs0AIUHiJYY74/s320/daffodilBuds03_20.jpg" border="0" /></p><br /><p>this beautiful bunch of bright yellow daffodils.

I painted it black peppercorn. I am really happy with the way it turned out but the paint it's self is like working with black tar. Karen from APP magazine did her counter top with the same colour. I really liked the black as my knobs & hardware are all black so I thought it would blend nicely. But once I got it down I wasn't overly impressed at how drastic the change was so I searched a few idea's of changing out my back splash. I was over at a friends in October and noticed she had put up a new back splash that looked like stone well come to find out it was wallpaper. So I went to the wall paper place and searched out a paper that I would like to put up.<br /><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div>Well take a look at my newly re-done kitchen. I find myself standing in the kitchen admiring how good it looks.</div><br /><br /><div>First is the before of just the counter top.<br /></div><br /><div><br /></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5713918281455892226" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCasEnmgaYEQvAuBaWQQirTjsUxHkndfHg-WLisjKAD8m6ulZX2BE9jvaOBmydVRkpRW8CJlvw1vVg-B_JGj0jy4UqQzlaZ9K6lvdPgktqnVVvNQp6MxF7JwaX7oi2IKL0C5aHis_-qUc/s320/Picture+001.jpg" border="0" /> </div><br /><br /><div>And here it is with the backsplash up..... much better don't ya think!<br /><br /></div><br /><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5713918734710910434" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfBH2oyUC_X9SDmxZ-c8tnTsTQidrN6pS3Ztx2Yz7Wh5dj8nEbXEWt3GrzrqhSrWbU-Fbs3uyRcFaw9gbda9vdRXJIqHVApLQKsDhLsdi5G_ESG_gsAOkuNx0UpZtS22Oo2ZHNX848l4c/s320/Picture+002.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5713918742683503266" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjp6YwC_PfiJSzdITJURS7uvv-P7ymQrLudLkYkfgOynw2tTqWgb6GEa3Tmm4e17kU2XpdVMrBXcloTIEkmY1gT3ocamLEkB-Y-eaMr4W8ZZ2sHu2C1otvooHA53AC65c6IENwjpdJEKHM/s320/Picture+003.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5713919426180214786" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxXcvZzDEgbxFGM7mvW6ezxcLOePz5WU0otbC6Njf1bCvu4lEziym4jIk7_7YUInpXCIiaUBjzzHu7jZGb_aBgH3BoMoXhH_A3zmQwbZyvG0D2jtrFbVbPBvYftcn73OSOExia6IigdVk/s320/Picture+004.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5713919431754667602" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyGXSe-JHgzgqJydBUagg6YgfFblToJ-aMJc9zRRi-9lKt3E1KYgInl0qFgiwChGQZYTSNQp1RQ3qXuh2Zot4bARDhM7-s95AqtsBmxZd_UAZAta8hR6LHAUY833-uoXjQNSodM5bnZwI/s320/Picture+005.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5713919443196580402" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgafDnEmOieHc9iOIaNiHKUsOlx3ENpr6aEqJIpBlFbIT_bhI8MHUvvH-tuc1rWMGJrN7PoM5E9P2bVekDoe_2vJu647fWJL3vQh-_-jBL92MKxywRj8UVZ4vgUe2RGQckFCC0ZV0L0VU0/s320/Picture+006.jpg" border="0" /><br />I am busy finishing up more painting and re-doing other rooms in the house.

I didn't take any pictures as I just wanted to get it completed b/c it caused my house to be upside down for a while.<br /><br /><div><br /><div></div><br /><div><a href="http://www.sampler.com/">Country Sampler</a> has the DIY colonial Floor Cloth created by Janice from <a href="http://stairwaytohome.blogspot.com/">Stairway to Home</a> instructions on their website & also Debra from <a href="http://blackcreekcolonial.blogspot.com/">Black Creek Colonial</a> has created one herself. And I totally agree with those Ladies about them not being the easiest. It was fun though when the project was completed and now I can sit and look at it knowing that I created it all on my own. I will love it once we have the carpet ripped out and hard wood put down that I am hoping happens with in the next couple of months. </div><br /><div><br /></div><br /><div>So take a look at my newest creation! I even think I might try to make a runner for my hallway eventually. </div><br /><div><br /><br /></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5703426531110455426" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 267px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4C9No0Rdt8KJhwRxqFq2YFRnep-m94867cDDXHQRfIdC_8HcsH4rG9nhtoEpcXkPuejyfflJUlwIeMbNddlcY22MW1iAMp0_gR2s43jeNfssGw_essW8uNiUeukXuHn1yT11eDhwcrgA/s320/family+2011+063.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5703426535200212002" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 181px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5xGjxNTbktIT53iayrAEUY7jFJHX62UsThtp6BwxS3-K8DmOsluyAH6Vy-coCI0CvKsWO8kez92eAlqePoqtdYEtyoXWSf9sU94-YVmd_oUiWnnRSVSZ467H1let7k6P9TnjEfW6Me1E/s320/family+2011+064.jpg" border="0" /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5703426575040836498" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 244px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCav75IsyBORqRo2Kt5GHfkJIQZHXDNaAZRDfaVoc9HlBtKvuw-XmQZrw1lX9atdHkhKhhSWBvKXvrfXLYwAZDDmKZWPQ0PLnYdaxTskd8omNAM4sF-M412TSbOAnuq7n66qdiTgnIKmQ/s320/family+2011+065.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><div></div>So do you all have snow in your neck of the woods??? We got hit twice this weekend with a blast but not a big one. And tomorrow it's suppose to be a high of 8 degree's so I know it will be gone with the rain that comes. I am enjoying the winter as I don't like the cold and we haven't had much cold weather! </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Ground Hog day is on Thursday so lets hope there is only 6 weeks until Spring!!! And hopefully this Spring is a good one unlike last year but winter hasn't felt near as long as last year's did!!! </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>I am looking forward to getting outside and into my flower beds and seeing all the beautiful spring flowers pop up! </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Have a great day everyone!</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Lynnly<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></div><br /><div></div>The Hoskins' Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02832029474096802219noreply@blogger.com12tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8503902830438190431.post-3395174681986509122012-01-13T19:01:00.001-08:002012-01-17T07:16:38.487-08:00Some snow, a new purchase and my creations!The weather people said we were going to get about 5 cm of snow Thursday night and it would taper off through the night. Sure................well its Friday night and still snowing and we have about 5 inches so far. Sometimes I really wonder if they know what is going to happen as Mother Nature works in her own way. Although I really enjoyed the weather that we have been having for almost the middle of January I am enjoying seeing everything covered with a beautiful touch of whiteness and forget the blah brown's that the winter months bring us. I do know this winter is going to pass fast as it's already the middle of January and we are just having our first snow fall.<br /><br /><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div>My children were very excited to wake up and find the ground covered. My daugther who is four asked if we could go out and build a snowman when it was still dark out and I could see some grass. My son was up before me and told me to look out the front window that he had spotted a huge snow drift in the front yard! Huge well I have seen alot bigger but now we have some pretty big snow drifts to play in. </div><br /><br /><br /><div>Ok so I started this post on Friday night expecting to take some pictures of the beautiful snow fall we had but time got the best of me and I didn't get outside, now it's Tuesday and pouring rain and 90% of our snow is gone and it's 7 degree's outside so no more snow for us. I really do wish Old Man Winter would decide to stay until at least the middle of February because I am tired of this crappy weather.</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><div>On a brighter note I got a new drop leaf table on the weekend and I love it, I put it between my front door and front window so I can set up some vignettes for all the season's. I really like it and how I have it decorated. I was also inspired from Janice over at <a href="http://stairwaytohome.blogspot.com/">Stairway to Home </a>to create some silhouettes of my children. I have always liked the silhouettes and wanted to create some but never thought to do my kids. Now that was a fun experience because my daughter is such a ham and wouldn't sit properly for me. It was a challenge but finally she sat long enough for me to snap a profile pic of her. </div><br /><div><br /></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5698617281916181362" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 244px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrmplRwg36HZKLQaqiuaDWW9zmD4UsXM69M8QqmT9KgA4gDgvlAG80MbnWH18__d9ph1F2wN_kcyBmkCQb8KPGmsU-beypvrPPgMOFDaB7araOArsujkM91-9zppMr-XNzbkshyRqhgJo/s320/table+2.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5698617388659472514" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 244px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5z4u3yerEqNuKchALjkwB_BWir6yNqlX9-QLwPkPALyIk084QSOY6ZWEEnSkYIucKziP1XhyJK8sopjcl9NfUejLvuXlKsGMU72EpnfaP89mHQmsj4RzdtKz9QvLrwf03L89s4KO5Jqw/s320/table.jpg" border="0" /><br />I also created some colonial style portraits. Being from Canada I found a picture of Sir John A MacDonald an old primeminister. And some other photo's. I can't find portraits over here of colonial style so I decided to create my own.

I tried to keep it simple this year as I wanted to clean things out and not have so much clutter. I spent 2 hours going through my attic in October sorting through what I was going to keep and what I would sell in my craft sale. I even still have 2 totes up in the attic that I didn't even get out but couldn't bare to get rid of the stuff just yet. I made $300 from my craft sale and used that to buy my hubby a leather recliner for graduating from Police College.<br /><br />The first picture is of my table in the sunroom! This is all I did out there this year. Usually I put a tree up out there but since we aren't entertaining I opted out of doing that to create more work when it comes to taking everything down.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSM9hdhTpa2zYJaUugZUBJwORoYVkf_Dm40JtgkKHYnxjEvgrhUvdVEGX8toCFBBaUotfSkMEAamJGsoV9ilDnFlU1touOTYXWiamZWJhCdbWz4ZGot3dHk2zWrJJtzAFhUinnCM-pDPw/s1600/christmas+2011+035.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

Looked at it over and over and just didn't like it. I needed some sparkle on it. Knowing that I purchased and received lots of beautiful vintage bulbs I decided to change my tree. I added silver beads, vintage bulbs then my daughter and I went up town to see if they still sold tinsel. Can you believe they still do!!! I was so happy! I came home put some tinsel on it and now I look at it with memories of how our tree used to look when I was little! Now I don't like the topper it will be changed next year for sure! But I love just a little sparkle on it!</div><br /><div></div><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTKSzm0Oi3LHnJNMBc2DZqV7D_kbOCOwnrhfhnmmnBSUZAPl96gaslzr8WxFPyxNg_jPvCcCuIklr5nft9qj0NFHbC50Nx75U7h-UQ73wnGYc4b69f2ED3YRidIrlUOEVdZElat1ArG_U/s1600/christmas+2011+008_picnik.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 244px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5689140771698272546" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTKSzm0Oi3LHnJNMBc2DZqV7D_kbOCOwnrhfhnmmnBSUZAPl96gaslzr8WxFPyxNg_jPvCcCuIklr5nft9qj0NFHbC50Nx75U7h-UQ73wnGYc4b69f2ED3YRidIrlUOEVdZElat1ArG_U/s320/christmas+2011+008_picnik.jpg" /></a><br /></div><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYg7QUbsKklZCOhR2_H6qRGokip8oI2xNoDBUysM7LgGDiPk2Zk9VXzU3Yyxh_PWTt1ofHTpD_3mWKUn55Ssm7ZvpMSQHrNdz1xRuXbJ_lsOc5sC6_dxIlUC1THYbU3wcXU7xzJQiNakg/s1600/christmas+2011+006.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 244px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5689140746358299442" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYg7QUbsKklZCOhR2_H6qRGokip8oI2xNoDBUysM7LgGDiPk2Zk9VXzU3Yyxh_PWTt1ofHTpD_3mWKUn55Ssm7ZvpMSQHrNdz1xRuXbJ_lsOc5sC6_dxIlUC1THYbU3wcXU7xzJQiNakg/s320/christmas+2011+006.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFsYYQPEOCIR1su38gRttcx0t0diW9aWVoy6xaOsc-FhfeUp7SbQ9UXKAtCXcH3SkO3fKi-0U_uAghZGyaZoNEf7tXQrqww6HDHX5Av5d7SLcrJ0UxzDtsDaG76eR7qpO5dMyHU6I3QAs/s1600/christmas+2011+005.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 198px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5689139859372024546" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFsYYQPEOCIR1su38gRttcx0t0diW9aWVoy6xaOsc-FhfeUp7SbQ9UXKAtCXcH3SkO3fKi-0U_uAghZGyaZoNEf7tXQrqww6HDHX5Av5d7SLcrJ0UxzDtsDaG76eR7qpO5dMyHU6I3QAs/s320/christmas+2011+005.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNALAo7-XvItzfKPo20AbYTi7m75Jm0-t86wMzWcYnvp6sQO-_CXiCb7pJSiH0HgIxUiZS00Rz-YoIsEMiQnDf9cmI2wFSsU8MruBHBTdYbVFWc3x3Dc4t9fRn2FrOejMDQi7aydTvB3s/s1600/christmas+2011+004.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 244px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5689139855696325634" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNALAo7-XvItzfKPo20AbYTi7m75Jm0-t86wMzWcYnvp6sQO-_CXiCb7pJSiH0HgIxUiZS00Rz-YoIsEMiQnDf9cmI2wFSsU8MruBHBTdYbVFWc3x3Dc4t9fRn2FrOejMDQi7aydTvB3s/s320/christmas+2011+004.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzhk-5pX6PecCN0kC2geUPMhH8KqqqmegqarXZ5fvJ2Abs9dcnrtmn_6N9ko0IyKMsyWl_tdKeJOWI6wTc5QxEslMP36jnOmfu_2_0vYEVWLEX-ZNasroTfpYS52lhINTla36ZU7ckI7U/s1600/christmas+2011+003.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 244px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5689139838048202370" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzhk-5pX6PecCN0kC2geUPMhH8KqqqmegqarXZ5fvJ2Abs9dcnrtmn_6N9ko0IyKMsyWl_tdKeJOWI6wTc5QxEslMP36jnOmfu_2_0vYEVWLEX-ZNasroTfpYS52lhINTla36ZU7ckI7U/s320/christmas+2011+003.jpg" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip_IcO0cjxWue6kzElFbLr9RaZ5dZSvos_jlRNhaKzMMLp0j3uPV2YfQ88BS6WyWJdHEg0dYYw6Z3h_0UOYdohy8SreR2LnbYcaOaWR03JFlmUQyZLN4hwRIW0XLnQ19qedHTSumUOdkw/s1600/christmas+2011+002.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 244px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5689139828477980546" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip_IcO0cjxWue6kzElFbLr9RaZ5dZSvos_jlRNhaKzMMLp0j3uPV2YfQ88BS6WyWJdHEg0dYYw6Z3h_0UOYdohy8SreR2LnbYcaOaWR03JFlmUQyZLN4hwRIW0XLnQ19qedHTSumUOdkw/s320/christmas+2011+002.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJ_zCo7N4ndaPWK0kd8EkcQlgXuJIUVIJfxCybYRYxBUUNpNa0GUPUYi6BzZYgK3CGC7ZgLXzIhzJVA94JqwVS9WIdsgU-_w8AdJgDgkj0fKTRpzfi-oGjKsZLl1RbbHi2Ft_6Cm6hgJI/s1600/christmas+2011+001.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 244px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5689139821837772482" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJ_zCo7N4ndaPWK0kd8EkcQlgXuJIUVIJfxCybYRYxBUUNpNa0GUPUYi6BzZYgK3CGC7ZgLXzIhzJVA94JqwVS9WIdsgU-_w8AdJgDgkj0fKTRpzfi-oGjKsZLl1RbbHi2Ft_6Cm6hgJI/s320/christmas+2011+001.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div>Well that about does it for my decorating for this year!

I usually find them a very ugly bird at least the Tom's are when they are strutting (this is what they do when they are trying to pick up a Hen). Good thing men don't look like then when they are trying to pick a women b/c it would be a huge turn off! LOL! </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Ok I have a little story to tell you we live out by a small zoo which they have turkey's in a large fenced in area. Well this past summer we were out there for my husband's parents 30th anniversary party. With my son being the big turkey hunter he thinks he is (keep in mind he's 6) he started acting like a female turkey (a hen) and was making the noise of one well let me tell you the 3 male's went crazy and were struttin their stuff. I found out after watching them that when they strut their beards turn bright red from when they aren't strutting they are blue. It was really neat to see them like that but man are they ugly!<br /></div><br /><div align="center">That is why I wanted to make sure my turkey was cute, not ugly!</div><br /><div align="center"></div><br /><div align="center"></div><br /><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnHy3z2C4eDEFn9o4gUQpCWqXghxikL7l82P-2Spfgh7xc_QhzBuvcCrXCxfnRMhVRZ89m4FQnXlGk1DFXb0dbzggF7MXyRnPJjzSi_MNfbuCKoq0Gx6rDb7d63X6mVpJiyVdqV50BGQk/s1600/diningroom2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5657200056962674754" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 319px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnHy3z2C4eDEFn9o4gUQpCWqXghxikL7l82P-2Spfgh7xc_QhzBuvcCrXCxfnRMhVRZ89m4FQnXlGk1DFXb0dbzggF7MXyRnPJjzSi_MNfbuCKoq0Gx6rDb7d63X6mVpJiyVdqV50BGQk/s320/diningroom2.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />Another shot with the candles going.

With me hosting Thanksgiving this year everyone uses the backdoor. No one ever comes on the front porch to enter my home so I thought yesterday I should do something to the backdoor and have it festive to match when you come in the house. So this is what I came up with. I could decorate all day with fall stuff it's so much fun especially when you live in the country and have access to mother nature! </div><br /><div><br /></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5657199510279640354" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 244px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxj5wl9-kvYNZYhQFLEFd8pu4sXzlBS2ymeJMQsI2KLoiS5NOcV7gutDz_axHg8uI767qJhM2foJ2I4sOA3GddTi08WW50zramtcRKkLAMTPe-6OG_gRBQe0438fv_ElRZQxj_QqSpHbU/s320/backdoor2.jpg" border="0" /></div><br /><div></div><br /><div align="center">I had to get a yellow mum, it's just gorgeous and so vibrant at the backdoor and lots of different pumpkins and gourds!</div><br /><div></div><br /><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFIEcp0xMTWBKPdUR_tjk5CGw1lY3UGobK_Gw48iFJpcOPY99t1R0y4a8ogu4e-2Rwr-BHlLHfm_C0TO4j5mSsRLmaT0oPHYwYXlcVAENR2XDrVn2pK_WdJfRXUKyaor3o8fiqZBuqL5Q/s1600/backdoor4.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5657199533266307442" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 244px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFIEcp0xMTWBKPdUR_tjk5CGw1lY3UGobK_Gw48iFJpcOPY99t1R0y4a8ogu4e-2Rwr-BHlLHfm_C0TO4j5mSsRLmaT0oPHYwYXlcVAENR2XDrVn2pK_WdJfRXUKyaor3o8fiqZBuqL5Q/s320/backdoor4.jpg" border="0" /></a>Doesn't that squash look cool, its in the shape of the pumpkin but is all rough.

I haven't yet finished outside, just got started on the weekend and have yet to get my pumpkins & mums. I plan to finish that this week sometime.<br /><br />I purchased a new pumpkin at Christmas Tree store over in Michigan on Friday and I only paid $9.99 for it.

Fall is beginning slowly. The pumpkins are being harvested, the corn is beginning to turn, the tobacco is being hung and soon the barns will be lit to send a wonderful smell through the air! I love this time of year and being able to leave the windows open to let the cool fresh air come in after having the house closed up with the air on.<br /><br />I have began decorating for fall inside. Just finished up my upstairs livingroom and kitchen on the weekend. I have my 4 season's room left to do as I love to put the real stuff out there and also my outside. I try to wait until the middle of September to do this so my pumpkins don't go bad and I have to get new ones! My kids are pumped this year for Halloween and my son's birthday this year is going to be at our Annual Harvest Party so I am slowly preparing for that.<br /><br />First is my fireplace mantle and hearth that my husband built me last year, this is the first time I got to decorate it for fall!! It took me a bit to find some stuff I really liked to add to it. But finally I am very happy with how it has turned out!<br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5651485600483011682" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 227px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7JmPseAYVaWAmx8ebiw-23UxJnNE4g8mLzmiFhXe0o6agmHMYXkOau0ngoe0xW1bsFTuFs074Xgv7Lwl1N8hCGXTV-XUDyJbpqdJB5pzpTerqg5EEFkJB_uO49NnWCrPiwirGn4NCKFw/s320/Fall+Pictures+2011+018.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><br /><div align="center">My gourd garland that my son and I created.

Getting up in the mornings when it's about 55 degree's outside makes me so want the fall to arrive. I see more and more fall decor coming out in the stores. The kids have 4 weeks before they head back to school. Both of my kids will be in school this year and they are both so excited to head back to school and to start school for my daughter.
<br />
<br />I usually get my stuff out the last week of August and have it put up just before Labour Day. I always take the last 2 weeks of August off so I like to do it while I am off and before the kids head back to school.
<br />
<br />Summer seems to fly by. It's kind of crazy that once July is gone the summer is over in no time and things get back to normal. This September is going to be hectic for me, my husband has been accepted onto the local Police Department so he will be heading to Ontario Police College for 3 months. It's an exciting time for us as we have been waiting for this since last October when he applied with them. It's a very long process but well worth the wait when at the end you are hired! My daugther also starts Junior Kindergarten as well with my son going into Grade 2. I have 3 people to get ready for school this year. And I am going to be on my own from September 6th to December 1st. He will be able to come home for the weekends but we all know how fast they go, this is going to fly bye and he will be home with us in no time! I am excited for him and very proud of him all the hard work he has done to be a Police Officer has finally paid off!
<br />

<br />
<br /><div>Well I will leave you with some fall pics that I found that I just love and are really getting me into the fall mood!</div>

And I am not very good with a camera when getting new items because as fast as I get home they go up. I went a little over board with the pictures but hey once I started I couldn't stop! Hope you enjoy!<br /><br />So first I got my new yellow cupboard. I really enjoy it. I also purchased some pewter from ebay and decided to put it in there. I like how the barn red back ground makes the pewter pop.<br /><br /><br /><br /><p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5623702561804529218" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 270px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijdzQUSefikzDH7mxEuUvrzLWxBv-7qz31DGCrl5prdWAYP225JPWyA6acrFfEXSBncz7M9F2fZIbx-lSWrrsHow6X_El9X4loQqnFYCPTty4MMbILhDaggmCiBq-d8Djlao26R2mW4D8/s320/buffet.jpg" border="0" /><br />New brown crock bowls I purchased at a flea market for $6 for the set.

Unless I can talk my husband into another one but we have some other things that need to be done so I will leave him unlone for the rest of this season. It turned out really well and all I have to say is I had 2 swollen hands from digging up all that grass. My arthritis isn't a fan of gardening but I am not giving it up no matter how much I suffer afterwards. That's what pain medicine is for right!!<br /><br />Anyways take a look and let me know what you think of my new bed!!!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIGOaNFy4Yo-3GbNU1hVfOxnwIO-2NFIfTRWAM0Vfwp4tryGV7lpV8bhLwFhzTL3viHTzXPHU1mQcQKknHJtpq-8PDhNS5IG9iBNTDovldfyO_q29Ps9WZXoVdamHx1QXMwsnu-0I6I9A/s1600/welcome+1.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 179px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622527728614802850" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIGOaNFy4Yo-3GbNU1hVfOxnwIO-2NFIfTRWAM0Vfwp4tryGV7lpV8bhLwFhzTL3viHTzXPHU1mQcQKknHJtpq-8PDhNS5IG9iBNTDovldfyO_q29Ps9WZXoVdamHx1QXMwsnu-0I6I9A/s320/welcome+1.jpg" /></a><br />My welcome basket as you enter the backyard from the patio.

I think they are the neatest thing. My son picked them out. When it's cloudy they don't fully open up but when the sun is out they are out in full. The petals don't really die off and if they do they are underneath so you never see them. Kind of cool.<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1vv5Xkxk_n3xq3foyMx9_WbTT1uNaD6QOuOpNlL5fdXFgXO7xWEQqkmxzqZSqvrB2VzjxtKuSaTgoTz2TaE8UO2E746BlWSD0A7xrEBup0rpfhG8UJ8dMdKyywRCtYBNEBsxoU5YLaNk/s1600/straw+flower.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 282px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622527702739653778" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1vv5Xkxk_n3xq3foyMx9_WbTT1uNaD6QOuOpNlL5fdXFgXO7xWEQqkmxzqZSqvrB2VzjxtKuSaTgoTz2TaE8UO2E746BlWSD0A7xrEBup0rpfhG8UJ8dMdKyywRCtYBNEBsxoU5YLaNk/s320/straw+flower.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div></div><br /><div>I can't wait for my peonies to bloom next year.

More on that later!</div><br /><br /><div>Hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful weather today after such a struggle with the heat the past couple of days!!!! Get out and enjoy this beautiful day!!!</div><br /><br /><div>I'll leave you with one last photo!!! My baby girl Jersey is getting so big, almost 13 weeks old already! She's doing well with training and is such a good girl. I was in our downstairs toy room the other day and happen to come upon a picture of our last chocolate lab when she was about Jersey's age now. I couldn't believe how much they look alike. We are blessed to have another beautiful chocolate lab!!</div><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5613272026181968770" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuQM1Snc9tRVSmWdVNa_rDa9rU5Zj1SO8OvJTCRxAQevinoz2OH9Bz1qm1Hvw_xwlfA3AaBA71zmEReis3XpGlGrcO_Hy6v0SHy_JCxUnxCpWKuUP0J_cLG3OArc4_PlyoVehsUdmnmuM/s320/P1010124.JPG" border="0" /><br /><br /><div></div>Have a good one!</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Lynnly<br /><br /><br /><div><br /><br /><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div>The Hoskins' Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02832029474096802219noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8503902830438190431.post-2951212383015795592011-05-04T07:20:00.000-07:002011-05-04T07:34:27.740-07:00My Basement Hallway Re-do & my door box...........Here is my door box I decorated for Spring. I love the yellow how it pops so you can see it from the road. The forsythia and yellow tulips are my favorite this year!!! I can certainly see I need a new camera badly. My pics don't turn out the way I want them to.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjafKRgzIiAP85tDy-jevq8d3S6QcNotOxg-Zmt7ZoUvcvO3lfpybJtJ6IvVJMBUGwtdQfei___UFiEmOcWsu0oTlNjU4z3N2UCj0HqtTtXQeh3t3x6fE3W1hjqsI85k7j6uSqzeU1HMBY/s1600/Door+Box"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602868131768890082" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 238px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjafKRgzIiAP85tDy-jevq8d3S6QcNotOxg-Zmt7ZoUvcvO3lfpybJtJ6IvVJMBUGwtdQfei___UFiEmOcWsu0oTlNjU4z3N2UCj0HqtTtXQeh3t3x6fE3W1hjqsI85k7j6uSqzeU1HMBY/s320/Door+Box" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div><br /><div>So finally I have taken some pics of basement hallway re-do. The sad part is I could only find one picture of it from before and it's not a good pic. I hated the colour so much that is why I never took pictures of it. Until now and I love how it turned out other than the fact that it is always dark down there.<br /><br /><br /><div>Here is the colour of it before you can see it behind me. Yes I know it's bad that I only have this one picture of the hallway with me in it and Ol' St. Nick but this is all I could find. Yucky Blueish Green. What was I thinking at that time??? </div><br /><br /><div>BEFORE:</div><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602866807515491586" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsF98L56JQF-mD67lS6vFdCimqBVrzHESUnizrD2QDmscntpfCrUk9Y4ZL4RSWlXa-NQpTr347QaTnkDuFjzOJwL2dT4ohzD1Cdm8ptBf1uViUcwQmUQawv-yqt11b8mNiwfNzsPZfWLk/s320/Picture+412.jpg" border="0" /><br />NOW:<br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaXAZn_-Fx3zRwIQwtODFdElFzs7eNLX9ERynrWOU8OZP9dIcJLUsevMzKM2oBy4eC7tQ9aZwGuV4rOu1wz5edMZ3d7AztYpyuL3pklB4ZrsPLtPZwjbRvUYge1iIFxx76fmSI8F3qyqk/s1600/Hallway.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602865804836199938" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 220px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaXAZn_-Fx3zRwIQwtODFdElFzs7eNLX9ERynrWOU8OZP9dIcJLUsevMzKM2oBy4eC7tQ9aZwGuV4rOu1wz5edMZ3d7AztYpyuL3pklB4ZrsPLtPZwjbRvUYge1iIFxx76fmSI8F3qyqk/s320/Hallway.jpg" border="0" /></a> <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602865807269352818" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 188px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzcFJZQr35V-Dqhp4AbVl59bV2aydrD9e0oTg6d4lN0uhx-stGJWgCVd6Hw6-ZlfwNdjsxjHgLN3FvkLx2sXrcIeREkpCxT_gcZRNzlqnXjHYTOb_n3YOZBqjM_hUK1Meb6jpAmEpKXyE/s320/Hallway2.jpg" border="0" /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602865812885227250" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 140px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVghiOyMw4MNd9-VBtfeYdSuAOokoiKJWQDYf3HtVt1EJEMxtKy_DzaOnTRc_A99zKr4qpw9yWZdcGy2Hz73YdJTRTB0l0gHNqFjnKW_A_ATxnw4WMqxNot2rnLBqbtEPbHuYLZBPdvj8/s320/Hallway3.jpg" border="0" /><br />I don't have alot of pics of my hallway as I didn't like how they were turning out. I need to see what they look like when the sun is coming in a bit from the kitchen. Ha ha if that ever happens??? </div><br /><br /><div>My daugther sings on a regular basis Mr. Sun song but it doesn't seem to be working for him to come shine down??? </div><br /><br /><div>So that's it for today. I have some new purchases to post about but will save them for later as I am waiting on one more! </div><br /><br /><div>Wishing you all a great week!</div><br /><br /><div>Have a good one!</div><br /><br /><div>Lynnly<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div>The Hoskins' Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02832029474096802219noreply@blogger.com3
