Project Black: Roxy

Meet "Roxy". She's a Lab mix and she loves her life at the Shrout home. Sarah (13) feeds, bathes and brushes her all the time (well, most of the time!). They brought her back from North Carolina about 4 years ago and she rules the backyard now. The funniest thing about Roxy is since we have moved here she has fallen in love with Bill. She follows him everywhere (literally on his heels) and even though he acts like it bothers him sometimes...he really enjoys her a lot!

Project Black: Ring, Ring, Ring

Okay, I was somewhat desperate tonight looking for something black and there was Kim sitting in a chair holding her iPhone. All the feet (her family) were taken at the beach during spring break this year. Anna and her family were there too and we made some wonderful memories together.

Project Black: Checkers

Let's play checkers!!!! This is my daughter Kim's kitchen floor. You can imagine how hard it is to keep this floor clean with 4 children running around. I'm off to find more black things tomorrow. Have a blessed week.

Project Black: Tempus Fugit

...when you're having fun! And we are having fun in Kentucky!!! This sundial came with us from Raleigh, NC and now sits under the magnolia tree (6/25/08 post) that also came from NC many years ago. We do find clocks much more reliable...

Project Black: Swingin...

Bill added this tire swing to our grandchildren's back yard about 5 years ago. As you can see from the ground below it is used quite a bit. I've even seen some adults on it over the years!

Heaven on Earth

This afternoon I was able to sit outside on the deck and enjoy a beautiful day. When I looked up I saw the blue skies through the trees. I wonder if times like this are a little bit of "heaven on earth". It feels like that to me...

Have a great evening!

Why Women Need Catalogs

My sister sent me this video last week. Hope you enjoy it...I thought it was soooo funny! Be sure and turn up the sound. Have a great day!
