| This is our house. |
 |
| ...a few of the barns. Note: a few. there's like a bazillion of them |
 |
| The back yard. Although you can't see it very well, there's a sun-porch (right), deck, patio, and pool. Talk about the dream back yard! :D |

 |
| A high-perched window with the softest pink cherry blossoms filling the view. Who needs curtains? |
 |
| An old chair left at the house. |
 |
| I said it was beautiful right? Well, these flowers now fill our back yard as the apple trees swing into full bloom. I'm already much in love. |
 |
| The deepest, loveliest lilacs |
 |
| ...and soft, sweet smelling lilacs |
 |
| I'm not sure exactly what these were, but they were lovely! |
 |
| More rows of apple blossoms... |
 |
| Bare grapevines with cheery dandelions creating a soft, yellow carpet |
 |
| Discovery of the day! Found this in one of the old barns and I'm super excited about putting it to use. Okay, maybe not exactly the use it was meant for, but it'll make a great decor item if you ask me! :D |
 |
| An old green truck (with fancy-shmansy mirrors) and a not-so-thrilled Josiah |
 |
| More vineyards... |
 |
| A pond outback. It's not actually ours, but we know the man who owns it. It's down a dusty field lane, overlooking the lake, surrounded by scattered trees and endless vineyards. Pure bliss! :] |
 |
| A gorgeous forsythia bush; blooming to it's fullest. |
 |
| [Inside the house] Glass doorknobs....how elegant! |
 |
| After a long day of cleaning with many helping hands [Thanks so much everyone who helped!!], someone picked a simple bouquet of the soft lilacs, filling the kitchen with the sweetest aroma. |

| Haha! My very own basketball net! [without a net.] The backboard is even adorned with a personalized "George Fullagar Fruit Farms. Penn Yan, Ny." Yesss! :D |
because pictures are so much better than my drawings....
FAIL!
It was a cold, wintery day and my kid sibs were playing the snow. Mom and i were packing when i came across a much too full box of crayons. [half of them broken and never used] i remembered when i was younger, my mom showing us how to melt crayons to form larger, more fun crayons. So i began. And quickly ended with an epic fail. And i began again, a mite more successfully than before. So after the crayons were melted and quickly hardening into a sticky mess, a question popped into my brain: How am i going to remove these suckers? This is where the cold, wintery [snow covered] day came into play. When i had almost given up, i frustratedly threw the warm pan into a mound of snow and walked away. 2 minutes later when i returened, wouldn't you know it. Every one of those beautiful little crayon blobs and dislodged themselves from the pan. [Save yourself headache and only melt crayons when there's snow on the ground :)] My siblings loved 'em but they don't even use them to color. I guess they just enjoy touching them and stuff. :) Anyway, i thought they were too fabulous & colorful to NOT take pictures of. ]
...okay. not daffodils. just tulips. horray for spring!
