Home Happenings


Baby, It's HOT OUTSIDE.
Small Town America Parade!
There's a beauty to it all.





Saturday was HOT as my DEAR Reigning Meatloaf KING Husband rode in a 1963 Red Chevy Nova Convertible waving to others on the sidelines watching the 2013 Paxico Meatloaf Festival Parade.  It's one of the perks of winning the competition the year before.  This is year number 5 for the meatloaf contest and A Pie Bake Off was added to the festivities.  Auto Show still a go.








 Lil Miss rode in the auto waving and blowing kisses.  
She took the privilege seriously. 


 I overheated.  
Found a place in the shade sipping some diet Snapple then walked over to the building where the Meatloaves were on display.  Not sure who would win, but a Pie Bake Off was added to the festival.  Maybe next year I'll enter that.   







 Such a good COOK!

~CAR SHOW~






Afterwards we went shopping and called it a day.  
Nice week-end.  

ROYCE GILBERT of Alma won the 2012 Paxico Meatloaf Festival!  He is now officially the Meatloaf KING.

MONDAY would have been a decent day to have a semi-homemade picnic in the out of doors, if we hadn't been so busy.  Temps cooled a tad as the wind blew in a cooler breeze that makes one want to willingly close their eyes while tilting the head back allowing what hair one has to be whipped about as if God Himself were styling it.  

In a way, He is.  He knows the number of hairs on that head of yours.  Sending a breeze to mess your mane.  In the heat of the Summer, a breeze like the one we had was a welcomed sensation.  WELCOMED.  Go ahhhhhh.  Wipe the sweat from your brow and take in the refreshing blast.


This month is peppered with Dental and Doctor's Appointments.  Today was no exception.  Dear Husband had an appointment.  On the way...picked up mail and drove to Topeka.  Lil Miss traveled well as we had promised her a new coloring book and colored pencils.  Lunch at Long John Silvers.  Quick trip to Dollar General and a old fashioned GREEN RIVER at the OLD PRAIRIE TOWN Pharmacy.  Doctor's Appointment was lengthy.  Coffee Break was in order.     


ALWAYS A GREEN TONGUE

Inside and out...Old Prairie Town takes me back.




As we drove HOME from Topeka, the raindrops spit onto the windshield. 


We arrived HOME tired.  

Delilah was on a walk with Daughter.  
She's enjoying her Summer Hair Cut. 

 

The Dog Days Of Summer are here.

Have a wonderful week,

DECORATING

I knew a very frugal Lady named Edith that shared with me a excellent guideline for decorating. She said with ease, "If your room has clean ceilings, floors, and walls, and the windows have nice curtains, you'll have an attractive room."



John 3:7

“Marvel not that I said unto thee,

Ye must be born again.”

King James Version (KJV)

PSALM 118:17

I shall not die,
but live, and declare
the works of the Lord.

PROVERBS 24:3-4

By wisdom
a house is built,
and through understanding

it is established;
through
knowledge

its rooms are filled with rare

and beautiful treasures.

BLOSSOM WHERE YOU ARE PLANTED
As long as I live, I will have to continually submit to God's plan for my life. You will be blessed because you turned your life over to God. Be confessing how good God is and tell Him you agree with who He says He is. BELIEVE and watch miracles happen. Be not afraid. ~Deanna

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS
SELECTING THE CORRECT SIZE CHANDY TO USE IN A ROOM MADE EASY. FORMULA MEASUREMENTS: Measure the room's height and width. Add together the numbers. Example: 8' x 10' room is 8 plus 10= 18" Use a 18" wide chandy. OR Take width of room calculating 2" for every foot. Example: 15' wide room. Take 15 times 2 = 30. Room needs 30" wide chandy. Standard distance between the bottom of the chandelier to the top of the table is 30 inches. When hanging the chandelier, make sure to hang it at the proper height. The bottom of a chandelier over a dining table or kitchen island should hang 30 to 32 inches above the top of the table or island. Most rooms call for at least 7 feet of space between the bottom of the chandelier and the floor.

WISHES

NO MATTER HOW BADLY YOU WISH with all your might that the something devastating that happened in your life hadn't happened and want so badly to go back in time to prevent it from happening...it isn't humanly possible to do this. You can't change the fact that it happened. IT DID. But JESUS can change the MEANING of what happened to you and give you PEACE. He can show you the way in which you are to go. God richly BLESS you. ~Deanna
