The Ponderosa guests & Clayson Farm Antique Show


What a weekend! I invited the boys from Barnhouse and Auntie Joy (Dave & Sam too) to be my guests at our little farm which is located on Chinook Pass. The pressure was on to finish up the little projects that have been hanging over my head, like hooking up the hot water tank, shower fixtures, gathering-painting-and moving furniture in (sorry, no sink in bathroom) so my company would have a comfortable place to stay. Needless to say, the boys and girls were the best guests a gal could ask for! We talked until the wee hours of the morning, kept the local cafe employees wide awake waaay after hours with our outrageous laughter (they'll probably be talking about us for awhile) and joked about the roosters that are just a bit 'off'.
Not to mention Clayson Farms Antique Show! This was possibly the most laid-back, fun show i've ever done! The vendors were outstanding, Mark and Leslee http://www.claysonfarm.blogspot.com/ made sure every detail was tended to. And when we went back on Sunday to load out, Mark BBQ'd for us! We soo appreciate all the WORK thats involved in producing a show of this caliber. I fully intended to take pictures but after two shots the battery died, so go to Florences' blog for more amazing photos: http://florencemuma.blogspot.com/ and J&J have a great slideshow on their blog http://www.barnhousebh.blogspot.com/ and Joys blog is hilarious http://antiejoy.blogspot.com/.
Also...don't believe what you hear on the news, there is no recession in Yakima!!
Thanks to all who bought, we love you guys!

friday funny

Pants and Panties
Mike was going to be married to Karen so his Father sat him down for a little chat.
He said, 'Mike, let me tell you something. On my wedding night in our honeymoon suite, I took off my pants, handed them to your Mother, and said, 'Here, try these on.''She did and said, 'These are too big. I can't wear them.'I replied, 'Exactly.. I wear the pants in this family and I always will.' Ever since that night, we have never had any problems.
'Hmmm,' said Mike. He thought that might be a good thing to try.On his honeymoon, Mike took off his pants and said to Karen, 'Here, try these on..'She tried them on and said, 'These are too large. They don't fit me.' Mike said, 'Exactly. I wear the pants in this family and I always will. I don't want you to ever forget that.'
Then Karen took off her panties and handed them to Mike. She said, 'Here, you try on mine..'Mike did and said,'I can't get into your panties.'Karen said, 'Exactly. And if you don't changeyour smart-ass attitude, you never will.'

Have a great weekend!
