April 2026 Blog Train and Fan Freebie

 We made it through the winter with only a couple big snow storms.  The rest were no big deal.  In fact, we even had one day that was 70 degrees a couple weeks ago.  I thought that would be it for winter. Less than two weeks later, it rained.  Then the rain turned into ice.  I woke up the next morning to 2 feet of snow covering everything!  Even my horses were complaining about it!  But, April is finally here, the sun is shining and all that white stuff is melted and gone.  I am so looking forward to complaining about the heat of summer!

You can tell gardening and new plants are on my mind.  I used the same colors as above so you can mix and match as you want.  Wouldn't it be fun if butterflies really DID have smiling faces :)

Boo loves to grab my husband's shoestrings.  He's been doing that every day since he was just a kitten.  It must be a "guy thing" :)

See you next month!

March 2026 Blog Train and Fan Freebie

I'm a little early for Easter, but the colors were too perfect to put it off for another month.  Also, we haven't had any snow for a while now, so I'm pushing for an early spring.  Excuse my glee, but it was nice to see New York hit with 30 inches of snow instead of us for a change.

I have no Irish anywhere in my family tree, but I do enjoy an Irish Pub.  There was a really nice one in St. Paul, Minnesota, years ago not far from the Chimera Theatre.  The minute you walked through the door, you felt like you were actually in Ireland.  A fun way to end an evening out.

The Boo Update --

We're taking a trip into the past here.  I was looking through all of my old pictures one afternoon. This was Boo in October 2018 just a month or two after I brought him in from the barn. When I pick him up today, I can't believe it's the same cat.  I had never expected him to get so big and have such long black fur.  And those rings on his tail were just adorable.  

Til next time . . .

February 2026 Blog Train & Fan Freebie

I like the idea of Valentine's Day, but I don't like that it's in February.  It's usually snowing and blowing, so it's more like a "Warm Heart Cold Feet" holiday :)

I used the same colors as the kit above so that you can mix-and-match as you please.

The Boo Update --

This is Boo with his buddy.  Jake had been my favorite stable cat and then one day about 4 years ago he just disappeared.  With barn cats, it happens.  Then, a couple months later when I was walking back to the house, there he was.  Oh, he was so thin.  He started purring the minute he saw me.  So, I brought him in the house so I could get some weight on him.  Boo liked the idea of "a little brother", and he fell right into our routine, so Jake became our second  house cat.  And, I have to say, it has been good for Boo to have another cat in the house.

 Happy New Year!  After the hustle and bustle of Christmas, it's kind of nice to just kick back and do normal everyday things.  A large part of those "things" for me is taking care of all of our animals, both inside and out.  My big project this winter is cleaning out the basement.  Sort of a New Year's resolution.  That should be an adventure!

I put together a group of borders, tags and a pearl swirl to enhance your pages with the blog train kit.

Boo is happy Christmas is over and the house is getting back to normal again.  He will miss the tree though.  He likes sleeping under it.  That's the last thing that comes down. 

2026 . . . Here we come!
