Our Hillcrest Homestead

Hi my Prims,
I just want to let you all know how much it means to my husband and I for all the prayers for my FIL. I read every comment to my husband that you all left and it meant so much to him you will NEVER know.
My FIL is doing much better and I care for him everyday. A nurse does come in and makes him walk(with his walker) and do leg lifts etc.

Now I want to show you some things that I was able to get done here at our homestead and to let you know how much our homestead means to us.We bought this house 20 yrs ago and made it into our home.We feel our home is warm, cozy and welcoming. It is our sanctuary.
Until we move to Cobsy, Tenn., and we can't wait. There will be a lot of furniture that I will be buying just for our new homestead in Tenn. It is about 6 yrs off but time does fly by!

Here are some pictures of some things I was able to get done........................

I put this picture of the boy here and I painted the shelf and night stand black and it just came all together.

This is in our living room and the next picture is a tin punch lamp that I bought and I hung it here..

I think I am going to my hubby hang it up a little higher.

Here is my basket that I just adore, I have a few more but I need to buy new greens for them and they are in different sizes and colors.

Do you see my lamb in his basket? I love him!

I LOVE to collect wooden bowls, firkins, rolling pins spoons, baskets, jugs, salt glazed jugs,lights,old mixing yellow ware bowls and some are in different colors. I could go on and on but you get it, I collect anything and everything and it always finds a home. My newest collection is old wooden buckets. I will show you my first one that I bought before my FIL got sick. What do you all love to collect??

Here are some pictures of the snow. We already got 12 inches and we are getting more today about 8 to 12 more inches.......YUCK! I can not wait for Spring and to hear the birds singing and being out in my yard and planting. I really didn't do much last summer but this summer I am going all out!

The snow was so heavy it smashed our bushes but they always pop right back up when the snow melts!

I hope all of my blogging friends stay safe and warm and cozy in your homes. Please don't go out if you don't have too.

I also want to let you know that everyone of you that commented about my FIL, you ALL have a special place in my heart.

With that said lets THINK SPRING girls  ............. THINK SPRING!!!!

I also want to let you know that I will be doing a give away. I have not done one in a VERY long time. It is my way to thank you all for reading and commenting on my little blog and your comments mean so very much to me.

Prim Blessings and Hugs,

Tricia XO
