I'm ready...

to lay on our porch
with nothing on my mind
relaxing to the sounds of the birds
thinking about how blue the sky is here in the country
hoping that the phone doesn't ring
watching the grasses in the prairie bend in the wind
seeing the smile on my husband's face
eating fresh baked cookies
while
waiting for the deer to walk up our drive way
and
look us with those eyes that say
"welcome back"

It's a sweet life we get to live isn't it?

{Hi, I'm Cam, I've been here a few times lately, and love the whole vibe of this place you have here.}

Soaking up the sun on beautiful days is as good as it gets...

(I said Thank you on my site, but wanted to come here & say it too!)

I'd love to be in your add-on pile! :)

Do you mind if I add you to my blogroll also?

Save room on the porch for me too!

I'd quite like to sit there too :-) Beautiful amount of light coming through and the prospect of deer coming by to say hello.
