Marvelous Monday CR84FN card

Actually any day I spend at home with my boys is MARVYY!!   I have to brag about our new little guy Bruno!! he just has been such a joy and little love bug and has fit in our family perfectly.   This is just what we needed to move on and heal our hearts and like I mentioned before we really believe our beloved Bubba had a "paw" in helping us and guiding us to Bruno.  
Ok so on to this weeks color challenge for cr84fn LOVE THESE together.  Plum, Lavender, and Green YUMMO! colors!! 
I ended up using some cream color paper and painted it light lavender and plum to mimic watercolors.    The flower is one of my altered chipboard flowers, painted, stamped then I added some purpley colored Tim Holtz glitter stickles and wiped it off a bit.     The happy hellos is stamped using one of my STAMPING UP greeting stamps. 


I used green paper and stamped and polka dotted it up then antiqued it a bit for the stem and leaves.   The sheet music on bottom has the words happy hellos stamped randomly on it. 
I doodled the flourishes and dots around the flower with a blk marker pen. 

This is Miss Olivia with her spring flower collar on, she is  our special visitor to market.  She is such a litle doll baby and what a personality!! 

My Buster chillin on his couch!! yes it is just his couch, hubby wont let me pitch it and really it is because Buster loves this couch and sprawls out on it everyday!!  We will keep it in the living room just for him. 

And my other boys chillin on our new couch.

And with yesterday being the first official day of spring we had to share pics of my friends baby goats.  These little does are only 2 days old. and just too adorable.  We started the spring day off with sleet, snow then rain then ended with lots of thunder and lightning.    Crazy michigan weather but we love this area!!

Elsie with her younuns. 

LOOK at that most precious face!! I want baby goats!!  lol one day we will add on the side of the barn a little birthing room!!  just for goats!! 

My nanny would make really cute babies but she doesnt like any other goats besides Beau her buddy but he is a weather  (fixed) so cannot make babies and I really dont think she would do well so will have to get another nanny.    I dont see a problem with that we love goats and 2 isnt enough! LOL 
Hope  yall have a wonderful springy day!!
Be back soon

Welcome


HELLO!!
I live with my wonderful hubby on our small hobby farm in sw michigan and love it!! We live across from lake mi. and never never get tired of the beauty in sunsets over the blue water. We have 50 some hens, a couple of old roosters one "Red Fred" who used to be in his younger dominating life very mean and nasty. After several times being shooed away and pushed with a pitch fork and several bruises and cuts to my mom and I both he has turned into more of a dear feathered friend. He comes running when we call his name and talks to us and loves to be picked up. CRAZY never had a rooster this tame and docile. My hubby and i both grew up on farms and love to garden and raise our animals. Oh we also have in our flock, 5 turkeys, several several guinnea hens, 5 ducks, 4 geese and one peacock. Then we have 2 goats and my special Appy my blind horse, who is a leapord appaloossa, we have 3 dogs, our kids!! Buster, Bubba and Barney who is just a young un at 3 months old, and 5 cats that have come to us to live. On our little farm we grow produce and some fruits mostly veggies though to take to the local farmers market and we put up a building on our property for a self serve farmstand complete with fresh eggs from our "girls". I recently aquired my state food license to be able to make some baked goods and want to can some our own jams and jellies. Busy life we have but wouldn't have it any other way.
IT IS 69 degrees today and this is the warmest since last year so i am off to start some seeds in my small greenhouse!! Will post some pics of our flock and of cource Red Fred!!
Have a delightful day!!
