The Perfect day of B's

Sounds a little strange, but I had the most wonderful time last weeek and everything seemed to revolve around something that began with B. First, my Best friend in the whole wide world, took off work and picked me up in her cute PT crusier. So, we put the Baby in the Back seat , and headed out for some random Back road driving. We did this alot her her son, so its only fair my daughter gets a few of these little trips.
The day was absolutely beautiful,,one that makes you so glad to be here on earth and just present in your life. So, we came up on some of the Amish community... and I managed to get a nice shot of this Buggy (no people, have to respect their beliefs). Supper exicted about that, it was picture perfect.
Then after some driving we got some lunch at a near by gas station,, deli-bologna sandwich..its the best! And it was off to our greatest find.... a backroad, winding down a road to an open field. And in the middle of this vastness,,, Heather, my best friend, say's.... "look butterflies". And indeed it was,,, there we were surrounded by this little miracle all of our own... butterflies, everywhere, all around us.
We ended the trip with some shopping at an Amish store, where I got the cutest bonnet for my daughter. And so we had a perfect day of b's. Backroads, buggies, bonnets, bologna, babies, best friends, and butterflies. It truely is the little things that make a life print on your heart and stay with you as memories.
Thanks, Heather!!! D

Found this saying today: "Be your own work of art. Cultivate friends, passions, a distinctive style. Learn, dare, and grow. Beauty is the bonus of a well-lived life." unknown.

One of my favorite things to do is go thru the book section at Wal-mart. Picking up a book and getting lost in the pages, is my version of a "mini take your mind on vacation break." At any rate, on my last mini vacation thru a Better Homes and Garden issue, I was drawn to an article about the Rockcastle River Trading Co. The magazine was filled with wonderful photos of a garden I would love to see,and what a surprise when I realized this is in Eastern Kentucky, and a very short trip for me. Amazing sometimes, all the little places you can just overlook. So, I ventured there with my mother, and it was a gorgeous place..and to see the pages of that magazine, become real life, was just neat! I even managed to spot their miniature horses in the back of the store. The River Company is owned by the Carloftis family, and son Jon has gardened for the stars. If you visit you will be greeted by Lucille, his elegant mother. She was very sweet, and seemed to fit perfect into the classy surroundings.. sitting there listening to Louy Armstrong. I just had to share this great find!
