I took this photo at night with my flash and the night portrait
setting. Can't believe my roses are still blooming in November.

Red Barns

On our recent road trip in rural Smith County, we came across
this huge farm with all these awesome red barns. I love old barns
and enjoy taking pictures of them.






Hubby Terry was talking about how he would love to turn this
barn into a house :0)

Fall Colors 2011

All of these photos were taken in and around my yard 4 days
ago. After the recent rain and wind most of the leaves are gone.
The only leaves remaining are the bradford pear trees.

Mid November Sunset

We had a most awesome day with the Sissom/Ashcraft family.
Terry's adopted sister, Cindy, her husband Rob and their
daughter, Caitlin drove from Chicago Friday night. We haven't
seen them in over a year. Terry's mom made a great lunch for
everyone. We watched some football, got caught up and had some
nice family time. As always the good times seem to end too soon.
Rob, Cindy and Caitlin will be driving back to Chicago tomorrow
morning. Hopefully it won't be another year before we get to see
them again.


The Ashcraft family...Rob, Caitlin and Cindy.

Happy Veteran's Day!

Thank you to my dad, my brother Ken and everyone else who
has served or is serving in the military! Thank you for your
service to our country! We honor you!

Sunflowers before the hard freeze last night.


And after the hard freeze. Lows here got into the 20's last night
with heavy frost.
