Rain!

Posted on 9:42 PM by jimmy

Photobucket ♥ ♥ ♥



Thankfully, we finally got some rain this evening, a little over an inch, and it's still raining lightly...


So happy! (So is the garden!)


I hope everyone else that needs rain is as fortunate...♥

Photobucket ♥  ♥  ♥



Also, in the mail today I got this lovely kitchen towel (I can button it right on the oven handle!) from Mare Ball of Adventures in the Ballpark for being her 100th follower...



Thank you so much, Mare!...It's too pretty to use!

 Look at my Sweet Annie...she looks like she's growing cheerleading pom-poms! Is this the way she's supposed to look? :)

And the last thing tonight...



Today I was going through some things and re-found (a perk of being un-organized...re-finding items you've forgotten about...) this wonderful vintage postcard...



Isn't it the cutest thing?


It's titled "The Portrait Painter", by Margaret W.Tarrant.



There's so much going on!


One of the bunny "sitters" is running away;  another is s-l-i-p-p-i-n-g off the Pixie's lap...


and the mice are having a field day with the artist's paints...



Such fun...I think that's what art is all about!



♥ ♥ ♥ Photobucket

 Have a wonderful Friday, all!
