kid's country fashions.



It has been awhile since I did a kid's fashion post and this past weekend's wedding pictures of my two children and niece left me inspired to update that.  Our families attended a country themed wedding for a family ceremony and the result were some adorable photo opportunities.  My son wore a handsome cowboy button down, fitted jeans and great cowboy boots.  He thoroughly enjoyed the outdoors, wagon wheels and country music.  My daughter wore a cotton printed dress, hand-me down cowgirl boots from a family friend and a huge head of curly hair.  She especially enjoyed running outside, posing for the camera and playing with her brother and cousin.  My niece wore a sweet, cotton gauze cream colored dress, brown boots (later white sandals) and a 5 toothed smile.  She enjoyed the pink balloons, food and dance floor.

my succulent/rock garden.




There are some pavers between my carriage house and home that I envisioned as a rock/succulent garden since we moved in last year.  I have been adding to it and I am on my way to having the variety of succulents I want.  The idea was sparked from my love of hen and chicks and has really taken off as I have discovered a wide variety of succulents I love.  I am anxious to watch these pieces grow and fill in the space.
