Our Little Corner of the World

This is a view from our front porch as I left for work one morning this week. I am dreading daylight savings. I don't want it to be any darker when I leave for work in the morning. Can you believe that school starts at 7:30. I have to be to work by 7:10. Most of the kids are still asleep when they arrive. Many of them are picked up by buses as early as 6:30.

Pendleton is a quaint little town just a few miles from our home in Central. It reminds me of Stars Hollow from the TV show Gilmore Girls. I am disappointed that I can't capture the charm of this little square in my pictures.


I went to a baby shower at The Village Baker on Pendleton square on Saturday. When we pulled up there was a concert going on. Maybe the town troubadour was playing. I also noticed an advertisment for the farmers market on Thursday evenings.

We made bows at the baby shower for the little baby girl that will be arriving shortly. I am surrounded by some very crafty women. Check out the cupcakes from the shower. It is a little nest with three baby birds in it. They found the inspiration in a Martha Stewart magazine. The cupcakes tasted even better than it looks.
