I love you Mom thank you...

From this...................

To this.............



Those words made it worth all the aches and pains and blisters lol.Just watching him in the water having fun made it all worth whiled.Plus knowing it was finished and I did'nt have to get up the next day facing it lol.We did have a problem with the well when we first tried filling it.The well shut off and we did'nt have water for a couple days,but the well guys came out and showed my DH that the problem was in the box some kind of safety thing.We thanked the Lord for that we thought it was going to cost us a lot of money to fix it.We've had so much trouble with it since we had the well put in.
So most of my outside projects are done.I would like to put up an old water pump we have out at the pond.Then I can start doing my dolls again.I have lots of ideas and can't wait to get started.It is hard in the summer especially when you have kids.They always have things they want to do.Jordan has 1 boy around here he plays with but his mom and dad arn't together so half the time he's at his dads.I hate seeing him by his self so my DH and I try doing things with him.He plays video games but I don't like seeing him sit at that all day either.We are getting fishing licenses so we can take him fishing.He loves fishing but don't want to eat them.He throws them back in which is fine with me.
Well all for now God bless and I'll get better at posting now that I am getting caught up around here............Have a great day !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thought I was about done










The pond is about done have to plant a few more flowers and we might put in an old water pump a friend gave us.Also started digging for our sons pool.We told him to use this one this year and if the well gives us no trouble next year we'll get him a bigger one.To tell the truth I am glad this pool isn't any bigger this digging is about killing me lol.I can't wait to get all this done so I can get back to my dolls.




I love being outside and doing things but the digging is hard and I never saw so many rocks.My DH tried helping this morning but it's way to much for him with his heart and lungs in such bad shape.Jordan our 11 yr old son has been so helpful he really worries about his daddy too.Tyson(the pup) he's something else he's white but when he are done he's as dirty as he can get.He loves digging and rolling in the soft dirt...

We added the waterfall here and filling it up..........This is the starting of the pool................



DH has to get the sand Monday they were closed today.Hopefully Jordan will be able to start using it next week..............

I have so many things I want to do but just not enough time.I have all these dolls going through my head and dying to get started on them.So that helps me push myself to get this stuff done lol...........have a great and safe weekend.............

It's the ponds fault and few doll pics

I got the idea to put in a pond.It semed like an easy project I did it before,but that was 10 years ago at our old house.I can tell you one thing my body isn't what it use to be thats for sure.I am so thankful my son wanted to help I could'nt have did it.He's only 11,but he really did great.Then we got some greatly appreciated help from our grandson inlaw.My husband wanted to help,but with his heart condition there was no way...





This was our 1st day




This was day 2


Couple days later our help






We have the dirt around,but have to add the waterfall.We should have that done by the weekend.It has been rainning so much we can't finish it now.



In the mean time I have been practicing on some doll heads.Finally I think I have the eyes going the way I want them.I just cut out a new doll and got it sewed up this morning.So hope to have her together tonight.



Here's a couple heads I have practiced on.One has eyes to small to high other is to big...



Well have to go make some lunch.The kids only had a half a day,and same tomorrow with that being their last day in school.Hope you have a great day God bless...........
