Project 365.......a little late!

I decided to just make a new post instead of updating the one from Sunday.....it's just easier......and right now easy is better!!!

Sunday
My boys leaving for Brazil

(these are reverse....oh well)
both my boys played in the worship band today
Jason, guitarist on right. Jared, piano

Monday

First stop in my hometown.....Eegee's!!


We drove straight to my parents cabin and
this is what my mom and dad had waiting for me on the patio!!!!

Tuesday

Dinner on the porch!!
It is gorgeous outside...cool, birds chirping....nice!

Wednesday

Started feeling bad last night.
I thought it was just allergies, but today I went down so fast.
I ended up in the ER with severe bronchitis on the verge of pneumonia

being sick on vacation STINKS,
but at least I have my mom to take care of me!

Thursday

Even though I am sick, I am trying to keep up with my pictures!

If you have to be sick though....this is the place to be!
I spent most of the day in this hammock (I was tired of the bed)

Friday

Since I didn't leave the cabin AT ALL,
I thought I would show you some of it's beauty

This is looking out the back window from the kitchen table


This is the back of the cabin.


mom and dad have worked hard over the years on the cabin
I love how they have placed things in the woods or
hung things from the trees that add beauty but look so natural

Saturday

We were supposed to head down to Tucson today.
I am not up to it,
so here are more pictures of my parents cabin


I love how my mom has planted in old stumps


I have never been a bird watcher, but I so enjoyed it up here!


I had planned to make this dinner for my parents and some friends....
...that didn't happen but I was determined to make it for my parents before I left.
It was awesome!


I hope to get around to all of your blogs to see your 365 pictures, but you can imagine how far behind I am in the blogosphere!

Oh, the cabin and around it are so pretty! Love that idea of your mom's to plant things in fallen logs. What a peaceful, restful place. Which was just what you needed while you were sick. Hope you're feeling ALL BETTER!

So, I'm reading this post, enjoying the pictures, wondering if your oldest son is available, since I have a 17 yr. old dau., sorry you're sick, loving the planted stump and then- all of a sudden- I see....The Plate With The Rooster!!!!!!!!!! I grew up eating off of those plates and a few years ago I started looking for them to try to collect enough to serve dinner to the family on someday. My mom got those plates for a gift, I think, when she got married. I LOVE those plates.

I have the teapot. Mom gave it to me. But too many of the plates had broken, so I don't have those.

Thanks for the memory!!

That looks like such a wonderful place!! I'm glad you're feeling better.

What a beautiful place....love the pics and I love the fact that your mom used stumps for flower pots...so cool! I'm sorry to hear that you ended up getting sick though, but glad you're feeling better. Hey, I can't figure out what that was that they left you out on the patio. ???

Tiffany said...

Big hugs, Tiff
