What a precious photo the very last one is, with Franniebrindle perched on Uncle Carlos' shoulders! I'm afraid that, despite all the fluffiewuffiness that little GK will grow into, me-thinks that Sharkey-n-Frannie'll STILL rule the roost at Cantitoe Corners! [giggle] ~ What a gorgeous and brisk-looking day for a ride, Martha! After the mid-atlantic's major snow event this past weekend (with 2+ FEET of snow - I repeat, FEET!), yesterday (Sunday) and today resulted in similar-looking days such as your morning ride, with brilliant blue skies overhead making way for downright blinding sunrays bouncing off the snow-covered earth. They were gorgeous days - days that made you feel good to be alive, despite having an aching back and sore muscles that you didn't even know you had, from all the lifting and shoveling a heavy wet snow. ~ I especially loved your vantage point in the early photos, being up on Rutger's back with his pretty little ears in view. Look how jaunty they are! I will just bet that all your horses just love to offer rides and be part of all the wonderful and 'exciting' outdoor excursions. My little Mandy =^..^= enjoys several jaunts outside in her little harness, even if it's only five or ten minutes. Every minute is full of excitement and purrs, as her little pink nose twitches and takes in all the scents in the fresh air. She comes back in seeming to be fulfilled for the moment, then seeks a comfiecozie place for a relaxing nap. She's always exhilarated after being outside, and I'm sure your girls are, too, right along with the 'boys'...what a wonderful little menagerie - of little girldogs, and boycats - girlkittens, and boyhorsies-n-donkeys-n-puppie...it's just simply wonderful! I'm really excited about the prospect milking cows and know that that'll come to fruition - I just know it! ~ Well, it's hard to believe more snow is on the way, but it is! - another possible 8-12" where I live! THIS winter has been unlike all others for manymany years. I think I'll mosey on over to your next blog and get some respite via your greenhouse tour. ~ Man! Think spring! ~ =^..^= ...yes, Franniehonnie...you are STILL queen of mommieMartha's kingdom! What a precious photo the very last one is, with Franniebrindle perched on Uncle Carlos' shoulders!

How gorgeous it must be to have colorful spring-looking blooms on the tree in the fall! From what I briefly learned about this tree, the tree named after Ben Franklin is a cousin to the camellia and became extinct in the wild; so you are accomplishing such a wonderful worthwhile thing by perpetuating them on your property.

But what really, really, made me love you? Your confession and photos of your messy closet/guest bedroom. My studio has become the catch all for every type of clutter (summer clothes, corespondance, dog items, etc.). If a super talented, and efficient person like you can fall behind, anyone can. I now think I'll tackle my own mess, as it's preventing me from creating wonderful art. If you can admit that things have gotten out of hand, so can I. I'll mend my ways now. But once order is restored, how do I keep the studio clutter free? I love the photos of your new puppy, the Friesian horses, and cheeky Francesca! But what really, really, made me love you?

From the beautiful imagery and ideas you share to your entrepreneurial, unwavering spirit. Thank you for being such a great role model for businesswomen everywhere. And these pictures make me long for snow. Not much of the white stuff here in Austin, Texas. You are always such a great source of inspiration for me.

These are trees that bear cones and drop their needles in the autumn, with new needles growing each spring.
