Barbara Jean,
Thanks so much for stopping by my site and for sending me some facebook messages! Sorry I have been MIA lately. Life is so crazy right now with our moves(3 moves in 3.5 weeks with Rob moving from the small Indiana apartment to the bigger family apartment, moving Joe into his 1st apartment in NY since he wants to continue to go to colllege and work here in NY, and then moving our family to IN finally.) I have been going on 36 hours stretches with like 2 hours of sleep and off running again. My body is so sore. I will try to catch up as soon as things calm down. Hope you had a wonderful Easter! :)
5/3/2011 5:49:57 PM - 002020640084
Barbara Jean,
I love this home page! Its so pretty with all the flowers that are bursting with fabulous color! :)
4/19/2011 12:23:29 AM - 002088910291
Barb, I hope all is well with you, and you are just having a break from the computer for a while! Your spring flowers are lovely, and that's what I have on too! Spring flowers! It still is not spring for some people I guess, we are wondering here, we get a few nice days, and then rain for a week, with unseasonably cold temperatures! But we do have a lot of flowers blooming anyway! I sure hope you guys don't get any of those terrible storms that have been in the mid west this spring! I think I would have gotten an e-mail by now it that happened! I will catch you later my friend! deb xoxox
3/20/2011 2:38:14 PM - 002059624475
Barb, thanks for always being so good about stopping by my site. I just finished a book on my granddaughter, Madison. It's for her birthday and it's pictures of her playing basketball, she's plays on 4 teams!!! I hope you're doing okay and - Happy Spring!!

The pictures on your second page are wonderful. They are much like I wanted to feature on my site Flying Geese of other photographers they are really neat how you did that. This, That and the other is a really neat site I started to ask about being a member, but thought it's like a family site and I thought that I shouldn't. His pictures are much like ours on our family site much older but I'm having printer trouble when I try to scan the photos and someone has taken a lot of my pictures.
2/16/2011 4:10:40 PM - 002063570780
Might I ask how you got the slides that big I was trying to get some of mine to be that size or bigger but it wasn't working for some reason? You have a picture on the guestbook with a little boy--I have been working on the KidzZoo and I need to go through and invite others would like for you to see if you have any suggestions ...
2/16/2011 4:08:16 PM - 002063570780
Your pictures are beautiful springtime in Ohio all the flowers.
2/14/2011 5:01:51 PM - 002020640084
WOW!!!! I'm loving all the flower photos and the new page color and layout! I hope all is well with you! I miss seeing you around. You are always in my thoughts and prayers! ♥ Happy Valentine's Day! ♥
2/1/2011 8:15:47 PM - 002088910291
Barb, I LOVE the giant magnolia photo overhead! It is gorgeous! I am sorry I haven't been to good at getting around lately to my share sites, but I finally caught up in the gallery, and am now making my way to some of my sites! I can't believe it is February already! The little snow drops and little yellow crocus have bloomed here already, and my tulips are about 6-7 inches tall already! I haven't even put out the rest of my last years flowers yet! I wanted somebody to get to see my Rose page, before I change it! And I haven't had the chance to make a page anyway! Will call you again soon I hope! Take care, Deb xoxox
2/1/2011 7:38:36 PM - 000039334931
I can't believe its already February! Love the photos, the flowers are gorgeous. Soon it will be spring again! My favorite time of the year, the weather is perfect. Love the site!

12/25/2010 5:26:57 PM - 002035648808
Merry Christmas Miss Jean....I hope all finds you well this Christmas Season. I am really loving this page. It just says Christmas all over the page. You did such a fabulous job putting it all together. Hoping that you and your family are getting to spend tons of time together. Your little David is becoming quite the young man. In a blink of eye he is going to be all grown up. Take care and blessings my dear friend :)
12/24/2010 2:39:28 PM - 002020640084
Barbara Jean,
I hope you are all moved in and able to enjoy the holidays! I love your home page!
Our mother/daughter trip was a dream come true vacation. Everything was perfect. We had so much fun! South Beach Miami, FL is so beautiful. The Lincoln Road Mall is awesome. Have you ever been there? I looked it up now that I'm home and it was designed to be like 5th Avenue in NYC or like Rodeo Drive in LA. It was so amazing! The most beautiful people walk around there. Then the shops and cafes were so neat. Everyone has dogs and the dogs were all dressed up. It was fun to see. The South Beach Miami, FL beach was so blue, clear, clean, & amazing! The 1st day there I got some amazing photos of Marina on the beach. Marina was so impressed with the quality of my 1st new DSLR (Nikon D90) she said they look like professional photos. Its hard to get photos of Marina because she gets embarrassed if people are looking so she will be still for 1 then she starts walking away. Its a challenge and I wish I could get her to do different things and experiment with a photo shoot but like I said she gets embarrassed so I have to snap 1 or 2 and then when we are in another area and there aren't people then she will let me snap a few more. She also gets tense when I take photos of her but I did get a few really pretty ones that I love. Its funny because Marina will take the most beautiful self armshot photos but they are through mirrors or her head is part cut off but she is so relaxed and I wish she was like that when I took photos.
The cruise was action packed with so much fun. The entire trip we would go to bed at like 3AM and wake up like 6AM. We were on the go nonstop and we still didn't see the entire ship. I really wanted to get photos of the ship's different rooms but we ran out of time. I still haven't posted my photos yet from my new camera because my laptop's harddrive is almost at full capacity so I have to do some serious deleting to upload all the new ones. I'm hoping the day after xmas I can have time to delete and then upload all the new photos with my new camera.
Rob is home briefly. He has to leave on Christmas afternoon so I have to take him to the airport. He is sleeping now so I thought I would catch up with you. I had so much to do once I got home for the holidays. I wish I had at least 2 more weeks. Thank god Rob was here for 2 days to help me shop because I didn't even start shopping for my kids. We were in the car for 2 days straight, or waiting in lines, or shopping! YIKES! I am always done shopping the day after Thankgiving. I usually just have to pick up stocking stuff in December or I may have forget that I got 1 of my kids more stuff when I pull it all out and start wrapping so off to the stores in December to even it out. We came home in the wee hours Dec.20 and I had stacks of xmas cards and Shutterfly packages. I was like a kid in a candy store. Then I did 95 of my cards. I wish I had your new address. Please email it if you get a chance. The holidays are for a week so I still have time to send you greetings! LOL!
I hope you and your family have the best Christmas ever! I can't wait to see the photos! :)
12/24/2010 7:16:55 AM - 001059933021
Barbara, now that we've entered that hectic period near the end of the year, I can't come up with something beautiful and poetic to write. I know, it's a good time to reflect on the events of the past year (tragedy-laden 2010) while eating good food and imbibing large, er, moderate amount of alcohol.
Thank you for all your sweet, honest comments on my books and my site! You always write from your heart!
Warm wishes for a joyous Holiday Season and Happy New year from me and my wife!
Again, Merry Christmas to you and your family! Take care!
12/23/2010 2:17:38 PM - 002086548916
Merry Christmas, Babara Jean,
Thanks so much for coming to my site and looking at my cookies. I had fun making them, and even more fun eating them! Just wanted to stop and say Merry Christmas! I hope you have a wonderful weekend with friends and family.
12/20/2010 2:54:56 AM - 002029331419
Hi Barbara Jean!
Wow...I hear, see and feel Christas alll over your page! :0) I'm glad your move went well...I'm sorry for the tough times that moving seems to bring for just about anyone moving very far - between place to place! Yours was sad, and I know you took it hard....but also thankful that your lady friend from church was able to also hlep you to move on! I made some of Stacey's Christmas Popcorn tonight...it's going to set up over night...it's delish!
Only 6 more days and it will be Christmas! We are going to Steve's Dad's house for Christmas Eve. They do not get out and drive at night to much anymore, so for a twist we are bringing dinner to them! Then Christmas Day the kids will be over here to our house. I Can't wait!
I've been working on getting my camera ready for the weeekend... getting the batteries charged, formatting the memory card...etc...I think those of us that are picture takers are going to be geared up! :0)
You were living in Ohio...where did you move too?.I want to wish you a Merry Christmas!! I hope you have a great week! :0)
12/13/2010 6:16:05 AM - 002088910291
Barb, You have so many wonderful Christmas photos on here, I hardly know where to begin!!! I was busier today than I thought I would be, and made it here late! I had a bunch of decorating and some photos for the bokeh challenge to take! I finally did put up a small tree and put out some of the few decorations that I had! It was a fun day though, I learned some new things on my camera thru the bokeh challenge! It was fun! I did not make it to any sites today but yours, I had to see what you had put up, you always have a fun page for the holidays! I will be back tomorrow, to add some comments to the photos I looked at! You sure had a lot of cute old photos of the kids, and your header is great!!!!! I love the photo of you on Santa's lap! Deb xoxox
12/12/2010 6:14:38 PM - 001076975951
Barb Jean, thanks for stopping by my site to say hello. Wishing you & your family a Merry Christmas. hope all is well. I will visit again real soon.
12/5/2010 11:48:21 PM - 002059624475
Barbara J this is a great page. I guess I need to find me a pumpkin patch, so many sites have such great pages and great pics of pumpkins!
12/1/2010 4:16:34 PM - 002020640084
By the way, my honey just got home for a visit! I will try to catch up with you! This month is going to be so crazy! Marina and I leave on Dec.9 and I have so much to do. Then we get back Dec. 19 then Rob comes home for a short visit Dec. 21-Dec.25. He gets on the plane at like 3PM so we will have a early brunch together! It will be extremely hectic. I have so much to do for our trip and the holidays! WOW!
12/1/2010 4:05:01 PM - 002020640084
Thanks so much for stopping by my site and leaving all the wonderful comments. I'm glad you liked the Losson Park album. You would love it there so much! :)
Its been a really stressful week. We spent Sat. at the animal hospital with Bella. She was bleeding internally and super sick with vomiting up pure black tarry like vomit with it looked like coffee grounds. It was everywhere and she also had diarrea. She wasn't moving around at all. Bella was just laying there all pitiful all day! Then at night she was barking(she doesn't bark) and Marina took her out because she needed to go out from having diarrea. I was so scared and I looked online and it said it was blood and to get to the hospital. Its upper GI bleeding what we think is due to tearing from gettting into garbage. She has been rebelling since Rob moved away in August and has been getting in the garbage so we thought it was a blockage but none showed on the x-ray. They think its a tear, or a bleeding ulcer, pancratitis, or something else. They gave her anti vomiting meds then gave her fluids. Now she is being treated with meds at home that I have to administer 7 times a day and then feed her chicken and rice 4 times a day! She is improving thank God. If it was a blockage it would cost $3500 plus the $500 hospital visit. To make matters worse she ran off in the dark when Marina took her 2 nights ago. We searched for her all night and thought she either got run over or that she was running away to die. It was so scary. Then at 7am we gave up hope and opened the door and she ran in!
Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! :)
12/1/2010 1:13:45 AM - 001061427203
hello, sorry haven't been around all that much (or at all!). Recently had some major shoulder surgery done and typing isn't something that had been on top of my list. I am in my 7th week post surgery and feeling alot better. Still cant move my arm/shoulder all that much but it is getting there. Thanks for stopping by my site recently, and yes that was Brady's picture (s) you saw. He has really grown recently and my little toddler is becoming a boy.
I have been on shutterfly recently trying to get my holiday gifts all completed so i am not pushing the deadline. I did so many different projects this year, mug, calendar, magnet, my cards and of coarse books :).
11/30/2010 8:08:16 PM - 001076975951
Barbara jean, Thanks for stopping by and sure hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving. Hope you spent some time with loved ones and created some great memories. Loving your home page so many wonderful pictures. keep warm and enjoy this wonderful time of the year.
11/25/2010 6:56:23 PM - 002063504014
Barbara,
Happy Thanksgiving to you, I love the fall colors you have here, and those deer are precious.
That bird you liked on my slideshow is called a Chickadee, I was able to zoom in on it,
they will come and eat food out of your hand I have been told. I will be spending Thanksgiving at my Dad's house,
with all three of my sisters there, we have snow in our area as well. God bless you.
11/25/2010 7:21:38 AM - 001059933021
Barbara, I just wanted to say Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family! It's that time of the year again to enjoy stuffing our bellies! Yes, I'm thankful for all your sweet comments on my books and those that you've posted on my site! I know it's not even Thanksgiving Day yet, but it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas here in the Inland Empire.
Listen, the year of calamity (2010) is winding down, as everyone looks back to reflect on all this year has held for us. Now we can at least start focusing on the coming of the New Year in 2011. Take care!
11/24/2010 5:55:21 PM - 002029331419
Hi Barbara Jean!! Just coming by to wish you a Happy Thanksgiving!! I hope you are doing well...I know that winter is starting to set in your area and the days are getting cooler!
11/24/2010 3:42:25 PM - 002086548916
Hi Barbara Jean, stopping by to wish your family a Happy Thanksgiving!
11/22/2010 6:58:34 PM - 002020640084
Barbara Jean,
Happy Thanksgiving! Thanks so much for stopping by! I know you are really busy right now! I hope everything is moving along as planned! :)
Marina and I went to dinner and the movies last night. We had such a great time! It was a discount movie place and it was $6 for the movie, popcorn, & pop special! We went to see YOU AGAIN. It was funny. It been such a long time since we went to the movies together. I think it was to go see DEAR JOHN. Oh...actually...I think we did just go last month to see LIFE AS WE KNOW IT! OOPS....! LOL! The regular movies are so outrageous now....I think it was like $9 something a ticket. I was happy to go and see a movie we wanted to see at the cheaper theater.
Enjoy the holiday weekend! :)
11/22/2010 2:42:48 AM - 001036406489
Barbara! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. Just love all the fall colors on your site. I have had fall (in CA) through your site - thanks again. Oh, we did sort of have a winter day yesterday. Looking forward to seeing your holiday photos!
11/20/2010 2:02:33 AM - 002088910291
HI BARBARA JEAN, HAVE A GOOD THANKSGIVING!!!! I really love your beautiful page!! Called you today, but you were not home! I will try again tomorrow! Deb xoxox
11/15/2010 12:30:43 AM - 002059624475
Hi Barbara, this is a really great page and Oh dear, look at all those deers!!!!! Love the boy scout shot. Both of my boys were in scouts and my husband was an Eagle Scout many years ago. Hope you're having a good month, can't believe it's November already!! Take care :)
11/14/2010 6:51:53 PM - 000076738705
really enjoyed "my beloved west viginians"; thanks for sharing How are you feeling? Thinking of you....all your images are lovely :)
11/11/2010 7:19:06 PM - 000031826072
Hi Barbara Jean, I Love all the fall fun and fall colors on your site! Gorgeous! Your grandson, David, is such a cutie and makes a terrific model. Looks like he's been having lots of fun.
Hope you and the family are doing well. Thanks so much for all the warm comments on my site and books recently - really makes my day!
I'm on lunch now, so I can't stay long. I just had time to look at a few pictures on the home page, but I'll be back to explore more later!
Have a great weekend!
11/10/2010 6:33:56 PM - 001076975951
Hi Barbara Jean, Hope you are well and enjoying the autumn weather. Thanks for coming by to explore my gallery site. And of course for all the lovely comments you shared. Glad you enjoy all the little surprises. Your home page looks fabulous and tons of wonderful photos. Thank you for sharing. Have a great week.
11/10/2010 5:16:07 AM - 002020640084
Barbara Jean,
That is amazing that your dad knew someone who was suppose to be on that team or go with them but didn't. I can imagine how shook up a town would be if they lost their entire college team, coaches, & fans in a plane crash in the 70's. Its so heartbreaking! You really should see the movie WE ARE MARSHALL. My husband and I were so touched by the entire story. Anyways, thanks so much for stopping by and for your emails this week. I sent you a reply the other day and I hope you got it. My AOL has been acting up so bad. Rob has sent emails from the library then will go to the apartment in Indianna and hours later I will get more emails. I thought Rob went back after he ate dinner later in the evening but he said no. The emails were sent minutes apart and I got them hours apart. Its crazy! Then people have told me they sent emails and replies that I haven't got. Its so strange and frustrating! Well hope you have a wonderful week. :)
11/8/2010 8:38:57 PM - 002088910291
Barb, I know I often don't come here as often as I should, since we e-mail everyday, but you always have new things put up all the time! I love all your fall photography, it is very beautiful! I looked at all your new albums, and enjoyed them very much! Deb xoxox
11/7/2010 5:17:46 PM - 002020640084
Barbara Jean,
Hope you had a wonderful week! I see you are at your auntie's house and I love all the new albums! Rob was home for a few days and its ironic because we watched the movie WE ARE MARSHALL for the 1st time and it was all about the Marshall University in WEST VIRGINIA. I had no idea that in the 70's a college team, coaches, & fans in WEST VIRGINIA died in a plane crash! It was so sad! The movie was really good though! Did you ever watch it? If not, you should rent it someday!
11/5/2010 12:47:55 PM - 002086548916
Hi Barbara Jean,
Thanks for coming by and looking at my honeymoon pictures. We had a great trip, and I love looking back at the the pictures from Half Moon Cay. I added a few balloons to your Fall Share Page, they are at the bottom. I tried to pick the ones that I know you liked the best from your comments. Have a great weekend!
10/31/2010 3:36:40 PM - 002020640084
Barbara Jean,
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
10/29/2010 1:46:15 PM - 002086548916
Hi Barbara Jean,
Just came by to wish you a great weekend! By the looks of your homepage, you have really been busy this fall! I am glad there are so many things to go and do in your area...and your grandson is getting bigger. Love the Gingerbread house.
Take care! Talk to you later.
10/29/2010 7:03:22 AM - 002020640084
Barbara Jean,
How are you doing? I'm glad you got a kick out of my fair page on your last visit! It was fun and I wish we got to go this summer but with the relocating craziness we didn't have time and missed it! I finally got to do a fall activity this week and went to the pumpkin farm in the evening! I wish I got to see more outside but we went in the barns/stores first and it got so dark and they were closing! It was fun, though! Anyways, its late but I wanted to come by and wish you a Happy Halloween! :)
10/28/2010 6:21:47 PM - 001076975951
Hi Barb Jean, Hope you are well. Your home page is looking mighty fine. Love all the autumn pictures. Thanks for stopping by to view my recent pics of NYC and meeting Linda & Jamie. They are wonderful and had such a fun filled day. Thanks for all the kind comments. Enjoy your weekend and take care.
10/25/2010 3:25:52 AM - 002020640084
Barbara Jean,
Thanks so much for stopping by and checking THE LOVE OF MY LIFE page I created for Rob. I loved all your comments. Yes Rob was home this week for 3 days and 2 nights. We packed in so much in that little time. It was fun but went by way to fast. Now its only 10 days until his next visit! That visit will be 4 days and 4 nights I believe. I'm so excited and I check my new widget out throughout the day. Then I text, email, call, or write to Rob to let him know how much longer! LOL! :)
I added a few 2009 fall photos because its been raining almost all of October here in NY. The few days of sunshine we did have I was crazy busy and didn't have time to do any fun fall activities! Its so sad. We were hoping to squeeze in a quick visit to the pumpkin patch when he was home and then carve pumpkins but we ran out of time! :(
I'm so happy you and David were able to enjoy fall in your area. I loved all the new albums! :)
Thanks so much for commenting on my fair page. It was a fun little 2009 summer adventure. It started raining super bad so our visit was very short but we still had tons of fun. I wish we got to go this summer but with the relocation thing we didn't get a chance!
Have a wonderful week! :)
10/22/2010 4:09:15 PM - 002029331419
Hi Barb! I wanted to come and see your new pictures! Look at that very fun house that David put together! :0) What fun!!!! I love fall festivals too! The treat bags look great!...little boys are so fun and it's so great to see you getting to enjoy each other!
Ok...going to do some looking at what's new!
10/21/2010 2:00:23 AM - 002081530895
The gingerbread house is great. David built the whole house? David has a great talent and it looks like he enjoyed doing it. Johnny S.

I need to come back Barb, as soon as my eyes get some rest! I need to come back and see the rest of Benny's photos, which takes a while, they are very good! In the mean time I will e-mail you! Talk to you later! I just don't want to take up so much of your comment room! Deb xoxox
10/18/2010 12:15:53 AM - 000076738705
I think god did bless the minors! which of those pumkins did you carve! ! Love the horse ride, thanks for sharing fall pictures with me. Take Care :)
10/17/2010 2:20:18 PM - 002059624475
Amen to that Barb. Loving your fall pictures with all the pumpkins. Who's the boy in the blue? I'm going to look around. You've been working hard!!
10/16/2010 10:44:28 PM - 001059933021
I am all excited with your site that has been reworked, replacing some images making the site much nicer! Some photographs explain themselves so well you don't need to add many details. The articles are interesting, and all the photographs are amazing! Barbara some site exist to bring you information, others to present opinions--your site covers a wide range of beautiful photographs in addition to both information and opinions. Best of all, you have another big volley of awesome photos of your handsome David! I was delighted with each photograph I gazed at!
Barbara, thanks again for all the lengthy VALUABLE comments on my books and on my site! Take care!

Barbara Jean,
Thanks so much for stopping by! I wanted a widget so I can count down the time for Rob to come home again and then I quickly started a page but got busy and distracted! I'm glad you enjoyed what I put there so far! We have had a rough week with tons of bad news about friends and family. Its been especially hard on Rob being 500 miles away while all this is going on. He was so homesick that I looked online and found the most incredible deal for a train ride home. He will only be home for 3 days but we will cherish every moment. It will be Rob's 1st train ride and he's super excited! I always told him I wanted all of us to go on a train ride someday in the fall so we could enjoy all the scenery of the fall foliage. Its really going to be special and hopefully it won't be raining and it will be sunny so he can enjoy the beautiful colors of the leaves!
Anyways, I enjoyed your page and will look for some pretty fall 2009 photos to add to your page since I don't have any from this fall yet since I was so sick then its been raining forever! If we get to go to the pumpkin farm this weekend or this week when Rob comes home then I will add them! Your pages are so beautiful! Excellent job!
I'm so happy to hear your starting to feel better! You are in my thoughts and prayers! Take care and get a goodnights sleep! XOXO
10/13/2010 11:05:46 PM - 002088910291
Barbara, This was such a good idea! I love it! We get to see and share gorgeous fall photos from all members who want to participate! It will make a great fall page! Thanks for letting me share! I am anxious to see what others share also! Deb xoxox
10/13/2010 6:12:06 PM - 001076975951
Barb, Love this Autumn page. Brings back lots of memories when I went apple & pumpkin picking when my girls were younger. I should have done it again. Afterall there is no age limit of autumn fun. Thanks for sharing BJ.
10/13/2010 5:22:31 PM - 001023411097
Hi Barbara, I could not add the title, but you have my photos of Fall in Livingston, Texas. This was a great idea and I love viewing the photos from all over. Hopefully others will do the same. Your fall pages are just beautiful. Barb
10/13/2010 4:47:37 PM - 002059400225
Well - I did it. You extended the offer to put some pictures on your site. Just picked some at random and of course you are welcome to do with as you wish. I will snoop around now and then it's just about nap time - seems to be one of favorite times of the day anymore. Thanks for all your efforts and for the sharing - it do take time. Great job as ever.
10/11/2010 6:25:27 PM - 002088910291
Thanks for all the compliments on my balloon page! I worked hard on it! You know me, I had to get the nature shots in there too! The red rocks were as spectacular or even more so than the balloons! Deb
10/11/2010 2:41:11 AM - 002088910291
Barb, I enjoyed looking at your Fall past photos! It is nice to have a family tradition! I hope you get to take David again this year! I love the colors of your fall page, I never think of changing my page colors! I get stuck on one, and there it stays! Red and black! Not very holiday like, I must say! I guess it will be ready for Christmas! Thanks for all the great compliments on my site! You always know just what to say, and have a knack of picking my very favorite photos too! You have a way with words, that I wish I had! You always paint such a good picture of the photos, with words! Say Hi to David for me! Deb xoxox
10/10/2010 11:44:05 AM - 001023411097
HI BARBARA, LOVE THE FALL PAGE AND I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL THE TREES START TO CHANGE. WE USUALLY HAVE A LOVELY FALL BECAUSE OF ALL THE TREES IN THE COUNTRY AROUND US. YOUR GRANDSON IS GETTING SO BIG AND YOU JUST ENJOY HIM. THEY GROW UP SO FAST. HUGS TO YOU MY DEAR AND THANK YOU FOR STOPING BY MY SITE.
10/7/2010 6:43:05 PM - 000031826072
Hi Barb!!!! Thanks so much for stopping in and the very nice "welcome home" from the Balloon Festival. We really did have a blast and Jean and Kay were the ultimate local hostesses! Talk about a photographers paradise...GREAT festival.
It looks like the engine show you went to was incredible. Wonderful photos from the show! Take care and Happy Fall!
10/5/2010 8:31:20 PM - 002029331419
Hey Barb!! It was so much fun hosting everyone in our city this year! My sister Rhonda and I stayed in our trailer close to the balloon field...and everyone else were in the hotel.
This has been one of the warmest Septembers on record...and on Saturday it was getting so warm...the 3rd wave of balloons didn't take off! :0O
I've never known a Fiesta where it was to warm for balloons to take off....windy, rainy, yes...hot..in September - no! They fill up the field and the balloons take off, that is one wave and we have enough for 3 waves. The field it's self is the size of 5 football fields! It's huge! Anyway....we had storms build up in the evening...but the mornings were beautiful!
We all had a great time with each other and Wow...the passion of taking pictures were just contagious! I think the only picture we didn't get...that we should have...was one of all of our camera's on a blanket or something! We just had a grand time getting to know each other!
Keep an eye out...pictures will start popping up! :0)
And...I enjoy your site...that's why I come over, You have some really fun pictures and I sure enjoy looking! :0)
10/5/2010 12:44:18 PM - 002020640084
Barbara Jean,
I love the old house, the old car, the tractors, & Big Red! Cowan Lake Antique show looks like it was so much fun! I'm so happy you got to go and were able to share all the fun!
My honey is home until tomorrow! Its the 1st time since Rob moved away in August! Today we are celebrating Marina's 16th birthday since Rob won't be here on Thursday! He is sleeping right now so I thought I would stop by real quick and take a peek at what's new!
Thanks so much for adding the 4th of July album! Its so much fun! I really appreciate all your comments on my site as well! They make my day! :)
9/30/2010 4:40:30 AM - 001023411097
OMG, I love the old house at the top, I wish I could be there and stay in it. It reminds me of my Great Aunts house. They lived in an old house for many years and had plenty of gas money from their property to build a new one. They love it so much. I love the cars and your home page. I have been so bad about visiting. I have been too busy with so many other things outside of my computer. Hugs to you my dear and wish you could be in NM. bj
9/27/2010 5:13:05 PM - 002029331419
Hi Barb! How ya doing today? Wow..you were determined to be out there in those hot temps!! What a great show though...I love the old engine items from the past! Your homestead header is very cool! I like old cars too! :0) To bad they don't have something like this in the fall where the temps and conditions are a little better! It was a hot summer! They say we are going to have a mild winter...but we've had 3 very good winters so far!
Things are changing around here too...the Aspens on the mountain are changing! I love it!
I'm really...still working on Kay's pictures!! I worked on them for about 2 hours last night..and I just keep at it. I think now I'm down to picking out my favorites and putting them in a folder...then I have the ones that I really want all together to upload!
This weekend everyone will be coming to my area! I'm very excited to meet those...for the first time! Work is calling!... have a great week!
9/26/2010 10:12:24 PM - 002088910291
Barb, I love the photo of the old homestead! It makes a great header! I also enjoyed looking at the old cars, and the old steam engines! I just had to come by to see what you had this time when I knew you had changed your page! Well I hope you had a good weekend, I didn't e-mail last night because I had Ethan , and did not want to be on the computer all day! I will talk to you soon on the phone this week! Deb xoxox
9/26/2010 6:33:24 PM - 000076738705
Thanks for sharing these old vehicles ! strong, colorful images that carry emotion without movement felt good; animals are very satisfying but when you lose one you need to see something strong. Wierd, I know, but these images were just what I needed. Hope all is well wlith you :)
9/23/2010 5:06:49 PM - 002020640084
Barbara Jean,
How have you been? Thanks so much for stopping by my site!
Marina and I went to IN again to visit Rob. The visit went by way to fast! We went to the Wizard of Oz festival and met the last 3 munchkins. Marina got their autographs and photos! One of the lollipops kids is now 90 years old! He was so adorable!
Rob was sick so we didn't get much sleep in Indianna because he was coughing all night then throwing up(Rob has the weakest gag reflex and if he coughs a few times it will make him gag and then throw up! I swear sometimes I feel like I'm married to a woman pregnant with triplets with morning sickness! LOL!). Anyways, my brother Anthony got sick from his 1.5 year old daughter Kourtney and brought it back to IN and then Rob got it and now I caught it. I had to drive 500 miles home with a fever, bodyaches, chills, headache, swollen glands, sore throat, cough, & nausea! The drive to IN was terrible as well because I passed through tons of rain storms and bad weather. It was so scary!
Then I come home to find out my 41 year old cousin Danny had a heartattack and is in the hospital. My friends aunt who we are close to also had a heartattack and now my friends dad's in hospice and dying from cancer.
9/21/2010 4:52:57 PM - 002029331419
Hello!
I just wanted to come by and get a good look at a lot of color...and your site sure provides color!!
Hope you are doing well!
9/18/2010 3:03:00 PM - 001076975951
Hi B.J. Thanks for your wishes and prayers. Yes my BIL is the father of my niece who is getting married on Friday. I know he will be there in spirit. Have a good weekend and take care of yourself.
9/16/2010 10:26:32 PM - 001023411097
I love the way the color pops on your pages. Cute little guy up above with a beautiful black and white butterfly. I love your butterflies!!!! If only we had a few like this....not so. Take more before it gets too cold.
9/9/2010 11:48:50 PM - 002020640084
Barbara Jean,
I love your photo with the butterfly in the floxglove flower! Your home page is so beautiful! This juvenile ruby throated humming in the rain is amazing! I love all the fabulous details! I'm so impressed you got such professional looking photos with a point and shoot as well. I get excited when I get a pretty nature shot with my point and shoot camera! Hope you had a great week! Thanks so much for your heartfelt emails! :)
9/9/2010 7:25:32 PM - 002029331419
Hi Barbara Jean!! Look at all of the color popping on your page!! Beautiful!! Bright!!
Hope you are doing well....the calm after the storm around our house is, well...surprising! We had 15 in our house just before we went to rehersal - Split between 2 rooms...they never did sit around the dining table or in the TV room that are right there!! Isn't it funny how people gather together and bunch up...but there's room to spread out!? haha!
Everything went really well....but it was HOT!! Hot!! We came close to 100!! ugh!
It was so much fun.!! She comes back on Saturday...and back to work on Monday!
Well...I had to come and say thanks for your sweet comments...it's always fun to see who comes by...kinda like those hummers zipping right past ya...but you see them anyway! :0)
LOL
9/6/2010 10:17:24 PM - 002088910291
I will call you probably tomorrow! Just resting up from my brothers visit! It is nasty outside, and it is Labor Day! It is 54 degrees, like I said in the e-mail! And raining! I think what tiny little summer we had, is already at an end! I sure hope this is not a preview of our fall! I always love the fall! But if it is, there's certainly nothing we can do about it, but make the best of it! We are going to the neighbors at 4:00 for a barbeque!!!! What bad timing on the weather! Yesterday, it was sunny, a little chilly, but beautiful non the less! Will talk to you tomorrow! xoxox Deb
9/6/2010 3:11:00 AM - 001059933021
Hi Barbara,
While opinion might differ, I'd have to say that your site is one of the most awesome sites. It's loaded with information and visuals. It's artfully done without going overboard.
This Home page is bursting with all my favorite photos. I love all things cute and I love all things Japanese! I love David's photograph holding that beautiful type of butterfly. Great photographs of hummingbirds... this is one fauna not found in Japan. Beautiful flowers... suddenly, stopping to smell the flowers just got a little sweeter! I love looking through your beautiful old photographs posted on Two Balloon Festival page!
Barbara, visiting your site means having my horizon broadened and learning new concept. I'm visiting your site because I want to get inspired and improve my writing skills!
Thanks so much for all the nicest comments you posted on my site! All of your comments were lovingly read by me and my wife. Many thanks for the email, too! While you're incredibly bright, dedicated, altruistic, and INTELLECTUALLY SHARP AS A RAZOR, I'm always butchering the english language and making screwy comments about whatever crossed my mind!
Anytime you're feeling under the weather, it's always a good idea to visit the gallery! Thanks again, Barbara. Have a good week!
9/3/2010 2:21:44 AM - 001023411097
Good evening lady, I love the hummer on the lower right side. Really a perfect shot and her chest is so white. I have been busy with construction on our home. We are having to have two sections of our house releveled. The builder did not do it correctly and it is costing way too much. It makes me sick. No vacations for a long while. Oh well, I can travel through the sharesites instead. Have a wonderful evening and the rest of the week. bj
8/30/2010 9:55:53 PM - 000085599530
Hi...Barbara Jean! Thanks for leaving a comment on my Legoland book. I found all of the primary colored pages under the solid and sports catagories. The black and white pages can be found under general and portfolio catagories too. Thanks again... :)
8/30/2010 12:14:46 PM - 002020640084
Rob left to move to IN on Sat.! Its was so hard watching him leave! I am so heartbroken and lost without him already! Today Marina and I are going to IN to help Rob get situated with his apartment. We planned on leaving Friday to get in the apartment but it didn't work out and turned into a REAL NIGHTMARE! (LONG STORY). Rob had to pack up his car and be in a hotel the past few days. I was so heartbroken! I tried so hard to avoid that situation and it got all messed up. (LONG STORY) I will have to tell you on the phone this weekend if I get a chance. The situation was so disappointing and stressful!
Rob and my brother Anthony will be sharing an apartment for now in Indianna. Today is their 1st day of work! Well today is the physical. Then the rest of the week is safety meetings and movies.
I figured it would be better if I got there when Marina and I could help with the apartment. I will be here in NY until we rent out or sell our house. I was just focusing on getting Rob an apartment and getting him situated then I will try to figure out if I want to rent or sell. We really don't have the money to pay for 2 homes in 2 states and to wait for the house to sell. We will most likely rent out our house. I hope and pray that my friends Aunt will be able to rent it. She even has interest in buying it because she going through a divorce but isn't sure when she will get money. She asked if she could rent out our house but at the time I thought we would be able to just put it up for sale and move on with our lives without worrying about if something goes wrong with the house or if someone we rent to destroys it.
Anyways, its my 1st roadtrip with me driving. I only went on the thruway/highway about 20 times in my life so this is going to be a HUGE challenge! I live in the suburbs of Buffalo, NY and to drive to the apartment in Indianna its over an 8 hour drive! I'm hoping and praying we make it there safely! I have to go and get ready. I will be back Friday night. If Marina is bored to tears we will leave on Thursday morning and be home Thursday evening.
I wonder if now I will be closer or farther apart from you! I will have to do the mapquest when I get back on the weekend! It would be so fun to meet up someday!
Talk to you soon!
Have a delighful week! :)
8/30/2010 11:38:37 AM - 001076975951
Hi Barbara Jean, Just stopping by while I have a few minutes. Hope you and your family are well as are your little furry friends. I hope you have been having a memorable summer I know you spent time with your aunt. Hope you have a great labor day weekend and I'm kinda sad that summer is coming to an end. Although I do like the fall, knowing that winter is right around the corner is a bit of a downer.
Not much new on my end. Just looking forward to my niece's wedding in September. Have a great week and take care.
8/27/2010 4:15:25 PM - 002029331419
Hi Barbara Jean, just trying to get to a couple of sites while I'm taking a break from all of my To Do's this weeekend so I'll be ready for next weekend! Thanks so much for your sweet comments and I'm glad you found my book too!! Kathy did such a wonderful job on decorating Leslie's reception that she will be doing Kay's also!! I've known her since 2nd grade!
I can't wait to give her the Photobook, it's kind of a Thank you for all the work she is doing for the reception.
Well...my time is up and I have to keep at it ..before it gets to hot!
I'll be around more in September after we get settled down!
have a terrific weekend!
8/26/2010 4:15:26 AM - 002030890961
I love all the butterfly pics. They are really beautiful.
8/25/2010 4:58:57 PM - 002059460698
Hi Barbara Jean! I'm back and excited to see all of these wonderful pictures of yours. You have such a beautfiul site....the humming birds (Little Guy) are still my favorites. The butterflies are awesome too....in fact they're all just beautiful.
I hope you've had a nice summer and that it's starting to cool down a little. It's still hot, humid (and oily) over here on the Gulf Coast. I'm anxious for a little fall weather.
Thanks for your e-mails and encouraging words you sent me. It's always great to hear from you, and I hope you're doing well!
Take care...I'm going to surf around your site for a bit!
8/24/2010 10:58:18 PM - 002020640084
Barbara Jean,
Thanks so much for all your sweet comments! Sorry I didn't get back to you its been so crazy here! I have been running on adrenaline for weeks! I can't even imagine my blood pressure now! Its so hard to sleep with my mind racing! There's so much to do in such a little time! I am so grateful that I have shutterfly to look forward to and to be able to take a few minutes every few days. Its my only sanity right now! I don't have a few minutes every few days to spare but I have to do it for my sanity and for a distraction!
Thanks so much for all of your love, support, & friendship! I am so grateful for all my shutterfly friends! Have a wonderful evening! :)
8/17/2010 2:39:25 PM - 001023411097
Hi Barb, I love your fact about the crickets, how interesting. Also you always have beautiful and colorful photography. I enjoy you hummingbirds. We are getting ready for our September migration here in Texas. I must look at all your butterflies. Hugs from Texas, bj
8/13/2010 9:17:14 PM - 001059933021
Greetings from Southern California!
My apologies for my slow response! Barbara, I was overjoyed to see and read all the nice comments you recently posted on my site! Your comments really made my head spin. After reading all of them, my wife said to me that you described our vacation photos better than I did, and I agreed. And I also told my wife that you've added 5% to my IQ! You always write so good comments.
Barbara, you are like my guru (not that one). I've been learning from you. You have all the essential qualities and leadership of a good MENTOR! You have good communication skills, ability to think, and you are relatively smart! You are above the ordinary!
All your comments are very much appreciated. Thanks so much for making me extremely happy! Barbara, you've got a friend in SOCAL! I'll visit your site again, and again, and again...
8/9/2010 8:24:13 PM - 002088910291
Barb ,I love the picture of David with the butterfly, great shot!!!! And I absolutely love the picture of the butterfly on this page a little farther down! It is perfect! The yellow and black one! I hope it has cooled down for you up there, but looking at the news it looks like the whole U.S. is in a pressure cooker, except for here, and a few other little isolated places! It rained all weekend, and the neighborhood had their annual yard sale going on, and I felt sorry for all the people running all their stuff back in the house after all the setup! It is drizzly today, and the temp is 68 degrees right now at 1:30 in the afternoon! I had to keep the heat on in here the last few days! We are cold! But it is going to warm up starting on Wednesday, and we needed the rain, that is for sure! Catch you later my friend! deb
8/9/2010 7:54:40 PM - 000076738705
Barbara, beautiful butterfly images; love the young boy with the "matching" butterfly is great! :) Lisa
8/8/2010 11:36:46 PM - 002088910291
Barb, I did come to your site like I said I would in the e-mail! I love your header!!! It is really pretty! And I love reading the facts as I went along! It looks like you have more fan mail to read, so I will let you go! Catch you tomorrow! xoxo Deb
8/5/2010 7:35:36 PM - 002063504014
Hi Jean,
The butterflies and hummingbird photos are fascinating, they are both incredible creatures. Your section about why hummers are so amazing is well done, you would like a video called "God of Wonders", there is a section in that DVD about hummingbirds and how amazing they really are. I have one at home if you need more info on it. Keep hummming it up :o)
8/5/2010 3:22:38 PM - 002029331419
Hi Barbara Jean! I hope you are feeling so much better these days....sinus infections...yuck!! They can make you stop in your tracks! :0( I thought your cricket fact was really great! I'm an old farm gal...and I remember that there were some chickens they all had at the farms...and they were usually quiet...but when something is 'wrong' they all sounded off!! The butterflies are very cool...yah...when we went to the exhibit there were a lot of people in there too- they just don't settle down when there's lots of people in the exhibits!!
Yep...wedding plans are on track! :0)
Ok...going to look around!

8/4/2010 4:16:11 PM - 002020640084
Barbara,
I hope your feeling better from your sinus infection! I think I have another one and an ear infection! I've been sick with my sinus, allergies, & fevers this week! I hate going to the doctors and always just hope and pray it goes away on its own and my body will heal itself so I don't have to go to the doctors! I always get sinus infections! They are terrible! I feel bad for you!
I enjoyed the visit with all the hummingbirds and butterflies on your site! :)
Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving so many sweet comments! I really appreciate it! :)
7/31/2010 3:45:03 AM - 002081530895
what a wonderful site. Your photos are so well organized. A truley outstanding site. Thank you Barbara.
7/30/2010 4:43:06 AM - 002020640084
The skunk photo is a riot! I can't believe how many there are! Do baby skunks spray?
I love your butterfly headers! Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving so many sweet comments! I really appreciate it! :)
7/30/2010 1:45:38 AM - 001023411097
OMG THE LITTLE SKUNKS ARE PRECIOUS! I LOVE YOUR HEADERS AND HAVE NOT SEEN YOU LATELY, BUT I HAVE BEEN BUSY AND NOT ON LINE THIS PAST WEEK MUCH. HAD MOM'S BIRTHDAY PARTY, HAD OUT OF TOWN COMPANY AND MY GRANDKIDS STAYED A FEW DAYS. WOW, I'M TIRED. ONLY GOING TO SAY HELLO FOR TONIGHT AND LOOK AROUND ON YOUR PAGES. I OFF THE COMPUTER FOR THE EVENING. TAKE CARE BJ
7/27/2010 10:56:59 PM - 002088910291
Barb, Where in the world did you see these little baby skunks!! How adorable! I would have loved that! Oh, I see, you got it from the internet! Cool! Talk to you real soon! I mailed you a package today! Some cool shades like Ethan has for David! I hope he likes them, they are so comfortable! Deb
7/22/2010 7:28:58 AM - 002059400225
For this visit I gotta go with the "Dinner Plate" flat Iris. Beside the fact that you obviously know your way around a camera and have a keen eye- very likely two; I don't have any idea how you got these to display in this format / size. Pretty darn cool. I'm going to pop over to your feral cat site for a look see - thanks for sharing.

Connie, I don't know but I wouldn't want to find out! lol. (My dad was out of school and went through I don't know how many tomato juice baths as a kid due to startling a skunk.) I put this here and the Good News Update to "drum up business" for My Little Feral page ... and also, My Little Feral site! I also think it's a really cute photo.

Thanks so much for taking the time to look at my hummer book and visit my site. I'm so incredibly behind at visiting everyone. Seems like since we got back from vacation time just slips by. Especially since the kids don't want to be inside. I have had a sick doggy. He's doing alittle better now. He's such a old man...Its horrible getting old. Ok, on to brighter things. Thank you again for looking at my book. Hummers and birds in general are so close to my heart. I get lost in taking their photos. I could of stayed days at the hummingbird habitat. If you ever get a chance...GO...it is lovely! A true creation from God. Oh, I did get your comments on the AZ trip. They are on the what's new area. I saw them today. I did make time today to add a few pics to my sight and move alittle around. (overdue) I feel like a looser getting so far behind. Ok. with that..its 11 p.m. and I need to go get my bath. Kids are in bed watching a Barbie movie.
7/22/2010 12:49:15 AM - 002088910291

Barbara Jean, thank you for your new comment on the Guru book. I just came by to say hello and I read your new comment. I'm working on my Hawaii book and making comments in the gallery. Have a great day, barbaraj
7/20/2010 4:58:22 PM - 002029331419
Thanks Barb for stopping by and commenting on our Veteran's! God Bless Them! :0)
I'm missing some of the color summer usually has for us...I think it's because it's just to stinking HOT...and it's dry here...we sure could use some rain!
Off on another Road Trip this Friday! I'm excited...back up to Colorado!
7/20/2010 2:25:52 PM - 001059933021
Special thanks for your excellent UNSOLICITED comments you posted on my site (I do not solicit comment from anyone). You've made our vacation images more appealing and memorable all because of your observational skill, attention to details, and strong writing skills as well! I am endlessly impressed! You have made me a very happy man!
Have a good day!
7/17/2010 3:35:26 PM - 001023411097
I was really surprised you said what you did about the gurus, on the Gallery! I hope you find we are really a great group of people that love our Shutterfly. We do get very close, because we work together to promote Shutterfly and help new members.
Hugs to you my dear, bj
7/16/2010 7:38:52 PM - 002059400225
Thinking I'm going to have to stay home from work a couple of days in an attempt to get caught up on my snooping. Hummingbirds can be tough - the little rascals move so dog gone fast. Thanks for the sights.
7/16/2010 7:24:11 PM - 002020640084
Barbara Jean,

Hi B.J. Thanks for stopping by and looking at my cruise photos. Glad you liked them. I will be cruising again next September not this year. Nonetheless, I am still excited. Glad you also like my NYC page. Hope you get some time to relax and catch up. Didn't you say you aunt wants you to visit one more time this summer? I am sure she loves your company. Anyway take care and have a great weekend.
7/15/2010 3:59:07 AM - 002063504014
This is my first time to your sight, the flowers, hummingbird and patriotic flavor are a beauty to behold. Thanks for the wonderful comments on my site, glad it could be an inspiration to you. I bookmarked your website, so I will be visiting more in the future :o)
Blessed be the name of the Lord.
7/13/2010 2:12:42 PM - 002029331419
Hi Barbara Jean! Wow...check out this bright Poppy you have opening up! Super color! I also really enjoyed your Iris's...one of my favorite flowers! Beautiful! My Grandmother was very fond of her Iris garden...and her Chocolate Iris...now what woman wouldn't like a flower with the name Chocolate in it! LOL!
It's been a busssssy summer for me! And I head back to Colorado next weekend too!
New Mexico is heating up...and it's just Hot outside! :0( This is the time of year that I'm glad I work in a good air conditioned office! :0)
Take care! Have a good week!
7/12/2010 4:26:33 PM - 002088910291
The poppy to my right is gorgeous! And such a great shot! I love your site, and will be back for the 4th of july photos! I am so glad you are home, even though I know how much you love West Virginia! I am glad you got a vacation!
7/12/2010 12:52:49 AM - 000039334931
Beautiful!!!!!!!!!! Love the site, love the flowers, love everything about it!
7/4/2010 5:20:30 PM - 002020640084
WOW! This looks AMAZING! I'm so sorry I haven't been here in awhile! What a treat to view all this beauty from your Aunt's farm! :)
HAPPY 4TH OF JULY! :)
7/4/2010 5:49:25 AM - 002035648808
Happy 4th of July Miss Jean....I hope all is going well for you and your family. I didn't realize you were back from your trip yet. I hope you had a wonderful tme with your Auntie. She sounds like a card! I bet she is really fun to be around and probably offers tons of interesting info. I really like the shots that you got of Little Guy. I haven't been able to get a decent shot of them all summer, ugh! I am hoping that our new garden will attract tons of butterflys and hopefully humming birds. We have a humming bird feeder but I really prefer to get pics on flowers :) Have a great week and blessings. Janna and I are headed to church camp around noon todday.
7/2/2010 12:05:31 PM - 001076975951
Hi Barbara jean, Just wanted to make a quick visit to wish you a HAPPY JULY 4th. Have fun and enjoy with family & friends. And God Bless America!!!!
7/1/2010 11:01:38 PM - 002088910291
I hope you have a great 4th of July weekend, and I just know that Moppet will be a lot better soon! I enjoyed your call this morning! Talk to you soon! Deb

Hey Barbara!! Welcome Home!! I have a super busy weekend with a wedding and rehersal tonight for a dear friends daughter ...but wanted to tell you that we missed you!! I hope your Aunt is well and your getting settled back in for the summer!
Catch ya later!
6/24/2010 8:13:46 PM - 002088910291
Barb, Welcome Home! We missed you!! Can't wait to see what you found to take photos of!! Deb
6/19/2010 5:31:18 PM - 002088910291
Barb, I did not see your book you made until just now, at the very bottom of the page! I really like how you organized and laid it out to tell the story of the little hummingbird! The photography was good as well! Catch you when you get home next Wednesday!! We miss you! Deb
6/18/2010 10:05:59 PM - 001059933021
Barbara, your site is just overflowing with new visual art and information. Your artistic creation is awesome! More great stuff to love! Visiting your site is always fun!
Thanks for all your nice comments!
Our summer vacation starts today. I'll Talk to you next month!
6/17/2010 4:09:01 PM - 002059460698
Hi Barb! I'm so bad about visiting lately. We just don't have enough hours in a day, do we? I'm really enjoying being in the gallery...that's been a wonderful adventure for me. I've never done anything like this before, so I'm really enjoying myself.
I love looking at all of your pictures...you do an awesome job!! It's wonderful to be able to come to your site and see West Virginia pictures too! I do miss it at times....it was my home for 50 years!!
The oil spill is here on our beaches....so sad!! I pray that they get it capped off and do a quick and thorough clean up. It's already too late for some areas though...and all of those poor animals....makes me want to cry!
I just love your beautiful Iris...It's gorgeous!! All of your pictures are! I'm going to look around and check out your little Ferals....You have a wonderful site. Thanks for sharing!!
6/17/2010 12:43:35 AM - 002081530895
Your header is outstyanding,and it is put together so well. It alone tells a beautiful story. It is such a joy to visit your sites.
6/6/2010 1:27:26 PM - 002059460698
Hi Barb!! I love your new home page!! The little hummingbird is a awesome...don't you just love those little guys!! I love your flower pictures too, and how wonderful that some of them date back to 1944. How great that is! You have so many new and beautiful pictures! I stopped by a couple of days ago, but my dinosaur of a computer kept crashing so I couldn't leave any comments.
I've been so sad about the oil leak. It's hitting our beaches here in Pensacola now. It just makes me sick to see our white sand ruined, and I hate to think of what it will do to all of our birds and sea life....just devastating.
I'm going to spend some time looking around at all of your new pictures. Since I'm not going to get back to West Virginia this year, I'll have to just enjoy your pictures!
Have a wonderful day, and I'm glad you're back!!
6/6/2010 10:54:00 AM - 000076738705
Hi Barb, new already! How did you do the moons? Lovely. And the hummingbird is darling. I cant keep up with you :)
6/5/2010 8:04:30 PM - 002065887734
I love that photo of the iris also. I wanted to leave my Memorial Day items on longer, but a month is a bit too long. I can't change anything after today for a long time, so I went with my flowers, "Little Guy", and The Farm. Thank you for your nice words. When I know what I want I can work fast...the problem is when I don't have a clear idea of what I want. (and the hundreds and hundreds of photos I still want to use! :(
6/5/2010 5:53:19 PM - 002088910291
I see you changed everything already , with your new pics, before you took off again! I don't know how you do it all! This page is so beautiful! I love all the new photos, and little guy! I am glad you left the bluish and white iris on this page! It is my favorite! Take care on your trip, Deb
6/5/2010 2:31:09 AM - 001023411097
Hey lady, I changed the name again. Try it out and see what happens. I must look at all your beautiful photos. I love visiting all the sites. I have been gone or digi scrapbooking too much lately. I will talk later and thank you for your comments. Hugs from Texas!
6/3/2010 4:48:55 AM - 002020640084

Thanks for the sweet email & for all your wonderful comments you left this week! :)
6/2/2010 9:18:40 PM - 002029331419
Love your Header pics Barbara! Very nice...I love the National Cemetaries!! My hubby is a Vietnam Vet. Went in when he was 17!!
Oh..and the pony tails on Hannah..they are there...but she has to be in the 'mood' for them or it's a struggle with her and her Mommy...so sometimes..she just goes with them down! ha! It's growing out...finally with a beautiful wave...It's the in-between lengths that are ---ugh -- so hard to get these little ones through! LOL!!
Headed to the Moutains for 4 days...Be back on Sunday - Have a terrific weekend!
6/2/2010 7:36:33 PM - 002088910291
Barbara, I LOVE your tribute to all the vets in the country, and to all those who gave their lives! I know my mom's dad died on Iwa Jima, and so she never got to know know her dad, or I, my grandpa! So many were sacrificed to give us freedom! You always do such a great job on your pages! I love the little hummingbird guy! You got a lot of good photos of him! You also got a great flag photo for your page! Deb
6/2/2010 2:51:13 AM - 002081530895

Hi Miss Jean. Welcome home. I didn't even know you were back until I saw you on Rhonda's site. I hope you had a wonderful time at your Aunt's farm. I just love all the flower pics you took. I can only imagine that VA is absolutely gorgeous in the Spring. I hope you have a wonderful Memorial Day and get to spend sometime with your lovely family. Tell John I said howdy and take care. I have been working too hard but did get a 3.5 day week-end and intend to slow down a bit this summer. My deposition was changed till 6-19 so I still have that hanging over my head, but I am trying not to stress over it. Work is going great but I just do too much of it, lol! Have a great one my friend...Hugs and blessings...Rhonda
5/30/2010 10:04:37 PM - 002088910291

Thank you, Jean. I have missed you guys. I haven't even looked at the kitties yet. Two women here took over to help me out, and I am planning to go back to W.Va. very soon. We haven't had one litter yet this spring!!! Yay! I know eventually we will get some, but this is great headway for the first year!
Hope you are ready for a nice weekend! Thank you for stopping by. I have so many photos and just found out earlier I had uploaded the same 4 gig chip twice...I think I need a break. I have some really neat photos, but think I need some rest. Love to you and your family! Have a super weekend! Barb

I LOVE your Home page the photos are simply amazing and beautiful. Love the green of the site and the flowers/plants pictures are a joy. Thanks for the updates.
Yes Joe is loving his new car and it has a smooth ride. Not much happening here this weekend. I shall stop by in a few weeks once you return from your W. Virginia trip. Travel safe.
4/24/2010 9:53:12 PM - 002081530895
I like the light play on the daisies. Well done.
4/24/2010 3:03:02 AM - 002035648808
I swear my friend, our interests is just about the same in every aspect. I love it. Your flowers are just magnificent. I hope you get to read this comment before you take off! It is so nice that you have a wonderful place to get flower pics. The greenhouse is going to be my new favorite place. I can't wait to get the flowers in the ground here. Just a couple more weeks and it should be safe from late spring frost. You have such a fantastic eye for flower shots, actually for everything. take care and blessings :)
4/21/2010 11:42:45 PM - 002088910291
HI BARBARA JEAN, I see you added a new photo of the daisies, it is really pretty!! Hope all is well with you and yours! How is David? I bet he has grown a bunch, like my grandson! They would sure get along good, being the same age, and having the same interests! Will catch you later my friend! Deb
4/20/2010 2:48:15 AM - 001024320926
Hi there Barbara Jean :) How are things? I came by to tell you that I didn't get to go on the flower tour with Jamie. I was so bummed out that it took me some time to get over it, I'm not over it yet. So bummed out!! I know that they had a good time because she sent me pictures and texts, which I loved!! I did try to distract myself by going shopping and I found a tiny patch of bluebonnets to take pictures of, not many in this area :( I did get to see Miss Kyleigh and that always puts a smile on my face :)
I hope that your weekend was a good one :)
4/17/2010 2:58:41 PM - 002035648808
Hi Miss Jean..I hope life is treating you well my friend. Your pictures of the Khron Conservatory on this page are spectacular. The dogwood trees and redbuds are gorgeous. Your header just stands out. Each and everytime I look at your site, I am amazed at the updates. It looks like you have a new cause with the bunny's. My mom could have croaked over Easter. Her foster daughter brought home an Easter Bunny from the Carnival. They have absolutely no way to take care of this little guy. They have cats and dogs that will try and have him for lunch. Your family Easter looks amazing. Where did you have it at. It looks like that Lisa and David and is that Lisa's husband in the pic? Well, everything is going fine on this end. I just got one of my cases completely wrapped up and am almost done with the big one. Work is still going great, but I am very tired alot now. Getting up at 4:30 AM is very hard to adjust too. I can't usually get to sleep before 10:30 and that is just not enough sleep. I haven't been around in awhile and I apologize. I have been able to get out on pretty days and take lots of pics. The dogwoods and redbuds have been exceptionally pretty this year. I hope you have a spectacular week-end and a good week to come :) Miss ya my friend!
4/15/2010 2:51:37 AM - 001076975951
Hi Barbara, LOVE your home page. The header is simply fabulous. WOW!!!
Thanks for stopping by today and viewing my photos. Your comments are always appreciate ...many thanks. Love your bunnies also. Your site is so welcoming. Thanks for all the sharing.
4/14/2010 11:29:05 PM - 001024320926
Hi ya Barbara Jean!! I leave for South Texas on Friday to go wildflowers looking :) I hope to see abunch. I'm pretty disappointed in the bluebonnets in this area, I really want to get Kyleigh in them again this year but it's looking pretty lean here, totally bummed!
I hope all is well there!!

Been a long time since I was at the Krohn Conservatory on Easter. The flowers beautiful send a greeting to my cousins there.
4/13/2010 1:21:30 PM - 002063570780
these Pictures are beautiful.
4/12/2010 2:06:21 AM - 001024320926
Ohhh look at the new pictures up top!! Gorgeous!! It's a garden wonder in here. Loving this.
I came by to tell you that Randy did know the Bunny fact, I thought I had something to trick him up and he knew already!!
4/11/2010 7:58:24 PM - 002088910291
Hi Barb, I bet those lilly's sure did smell great! They look so pretty with the purple coleus, and blue hydrangeas! No wonder you love to go to the conservatory!
4/10/2010 3:53:02 PM - 002088910291
Barb, Your photos at the conservatory turned out great!!! I LOVE your new photo on the top!!! And all the beautiful flowers I see going by me! I will be back this evening to look at them individually! Your site looks beautiful! Gorgeous lilly shot, on the header! Deb

Hi Barbara, Love the Bunny Facts!! I will have to ask my husband if he knew that, he is an animal nut!! it would be nice to stump him on one :)
I checked out the Balloon Festival page. That's awesome. I love that you saved all those fun pictures!!
I have all these fun Sea World pictures with the boys that I should scan. You've inspired to me.
Love all the spring picturs, beautiful flowers!! I hope Easter was good to you!

...and your header is Beautiful!!!!!!!!
4/7/2010 6:35:12 PM - 002029331419
Hi Barbara!!
Had to come over and see what's new....ahhh the Bunnies!! They are so cute and soft!! No bunnie pets for us - even though where we walk in the spring and summer they are all over everywhere..they are wild. We should start seeing new ones out and about before to long!
4/7/2010 6:18:04 PM - 000031826072
Barb, The Easter page is truly amazing. Beautiful photos and tons of great information, too! All the bunnies are just adorable. Bunnies are so darn cute. I hope you and yours had a wonderful Easter!
4/3/2010 10:58:48 PM - 002088910291
Barb, You have done a wonderful job of putting together this great site for Easter! It is so pretty, and informative, about the bunnies, also! I love it here! Deb
4/3/2010 12:20:29 PM - 002059460698
My computer at home is down AGAIN....so I wanted to take a minute from here at work and tell you "Hi" and hope you have a wonderful Easter!! I do LOVE the Egg game and have missed playing it since I can't seem to be able to get back on line at home. Take care, and I hope I'm back up and running soon.
4/1/2010 12:43:48 PM - 001024320926
Look at all the fun bunnies!! I think of bunnies and little kiddos when I think of my Easters as a child. Church too, of course.
I have to apologize for not being around. I have been working on my upload for three days now, it's insane and still not worked out. Not sure what the problem is. Hopefully I can get it resolved today.
Love all the pretty flowers and pictures on here!! Beautiful!!
3/30/2010 10:50:10 PM - 002088910291
Thank you Barbara Jean, for all the compliments on my books!!! I appreciate it!!! Deb
3/24/2010 9:36:01 PM - 002020640084
WOW!!!! This Easter page is so BEAUTIFUL! I love Easter, springtime, bunnies, & flowers! SORRY I DIDN'T GET HERE SOONER I HAD THE COLD/FEVER FLU THING ALL WEEK! It was terrible! :( I'm stil not feeling great but at least the fever is gone & I was able to sleep for 7 hours straight! I didn't for more than 15 minute stretches sleep for days it was terrible! Then my dad who also got sick said to take Nyquil then I was able to sleep for about 3-5 hours at night!
Are you going to see the Easter bunny? We are goingto Hilton Head, SC for spring break! I might not have time to come back before my trip so Im sending early wishes!!! Have a Happy Easter!
3/22/2010 4:29:54 PM - 002088910291
No, I don't mind that you added the link, I don't know how to do that yet, but everyone else is doing it! I need to learn! I need to work on page two of the arboretum today!
3/21/2010 10:32:11 PM - 002065887734
Debbie, thank you for your compliments but I consider this Lisa and your page, too. I did the photo of my kids and the header. You and Lisa did the rest. We did good tougether! I labeled you flower photos.
They are so pretty I want to be sure you get the credit! Lisa did ALL the bunny photos. I love that "Family" one also. I love the flop eared brown bunnies. One's ear's look like leather!!! That amazes me. After I was finished I thought, I need more stuff for kids, so found other stuff to add. Hope you two didn't mind. (If so, it's a bit late now! LOL).
I want to thank you so much for visiting some of my other pages. It's so nice to see when someone is able to take the time to look at other pages. I truly appreciate that! Hope you don't mind but I added a link to your site. The Arboretum Page is so great I wanted to make it easy to get to.Thanks for everything. BJ
3/21/2010 9:10:16 PM - 002088910291
Thanks for letting me help a little with your precious page! I was glad you asked me to put a few spring pics on the site that were relevant to easter! You did a great job with this page!!! And to think you did it so fast too! Great idea for easter! The photo, WE ARE FAMILY , is so pretty!!!! Deb
3/21/2010 2:36:01 AM - 000031826072
Barbara Jean - I've seen you around on several of the other sites, but I've never visited your site before. I finally clicked on your name today and voila! Wow! These Easter photos are amazing! I took a quick look at your wedding page. GREAT page - so wonderful to celebrate the union, even if you aren't together anymore. I will come back when I can explore you entire site in more depth. It looks like a truly beautiful site. Have a great weekend!
3/20/2010 8:35:45 PM - 001076975951
Barb J. Love that header WOW it just makes me smile. How have you been? Hope you and your family are all well. What's been happening with you and special plans this weekend? I hope the sun is shinning in your town. Enjoy and have a great day. See you on the sites. I just love this burst of spring on your home page.
3/20/2010 2:43:47 PM - 002063570780
Wonderful and the bunnies are wonderful . Spring is such a great time with all of the beautiful colors and flowers and smells that go with it cutting grass and the other odors and ...a very special time.
3/20/2010 2:21:45 PM - 002081530895
This such a wonderful and emotional site. It brings tears to this old mans eyes. Thanks for what you three are doing this Easter season. They are all GOD's children that we are mandated to take care of.
3/20/2010 1:34:11 PM - 002035648808
What a wonderful gift ladies. This page is glorious. It is just what I needed to start my first day of spirng. We are on our way to see Master Luke in St. Louis and take him to the Magic House. It is supposed to snow just north of us tomorrow. I will come back and visit this page. Everyone did such a fantastic job. Thanks!
3/20/2010 11:42:15 AM - 002065887734
Thank you so much Anita. I am glad you liked it!
3/20/2010 11:32:29 AM - 002059460698
I think you may need to take the Egg Game off>...I'm supposed to be getting ready for work and can't quit playing!!! I'm practicing so I can beat my grandkids when they play! I LOVE it. What a little added pleasure it is.
3/20/2010 10:55:09 AM - 002059460698
What a GREAT page this is.....I LOVE it!!! Everything about it fun to look at....the pictures, egg coloring tips, game, glitters, bunnies.....it's really a beautiful page. I love all the pictures of the flowers.....gorgeous....and the bunnies with their names and captions fit the pictures perfectly!! The egg coloring tips are great, especially the Out of The Box Ideas. The three of you did an awesome job! Thanks so much for sharing...I'll be back to see your awesome page again and again!!!
3/1/2011 12:56:45 PM - 002059460698
Beautiful!! I love this page....the pictures are gorgeous and tell the wonderful story of the coming of spring...my favorite time of year! Your site always has such a great selection of pictures and the layouts are beautiful. I've really missed a lot by not visiting the sites. Life has been busy, I messed up my site really badly, the oil spill and health have all gotten in my way. Of course those are just excuses, because everyone has hectic lives, but still they pull it together and move forward. After looking at all of your beautiful flowers and the little ferrals I'm starting to feel inspired again to get back out there and see what everyone has done with their sites.
I hope your spring is filled with good health and beautiful, sunny days. Take are Barb!
11/23/2010 3:29:47 PM - 002090603257
Barb these pics are absolutely beautiful!! Thanks for sharing!!
1/12/2010 7:37:19 AM - 001059933021
Barbara, your site is cute, fun and visceral all in one package! The subtlety of your work will amaze and delight anyone!
I've been enjoying each comment section on my site all because of you. And I'm so touched by your thoughtfulness! It's really a joy reading each of your intelligent comment. You always say what you mean and mean what you say!
The comments you posted on Travel page(s) were also nice! There's nothing like traveling in a foreign country to make you appreciate how good things are back here in the USA! I still don't get it why loving one's country is something that some Americans take for granted! I guess this is all for now Barbara. It can get monotonous if I add more comments!!! Thanks again!
1/12/2010 5:53:17 AM - 002029331419
oh...yes...to answer a couple of your questions.. Yes, that is Hannah at 2 weeks old in the B&W's. I was thrilled that the kids wanted me to take her first time pics! :0)
And I hope you get to go to TX sometime soon! San Antonio was a blast!! I hear..from Jamie...that area is so amazing in April!!
1/12/2010 5:50:41 AM - 002029331419
Hi Barbara Jean! Wow! I'm came by to check on you...and glad I came by! I think your feeling a bit better now...right? Yea!! Andyour little Christmas sounds soo wonderful! Wasn't it just a thrill to see them open up their books! :0) Awwwwwwww!
Did you get answers on your questions to me? I got your email just before we left...and I was so hoping that you were doing ok!
We had a great trip....but...I'm glad to be home and getting back to a routine. Work is stacked up...I expected that when I knew I'd be gone for 10 days!
Well, Missy...Have a good day tomorrow...It's already late tonight! :0)
1/11/2010 5:16:27 AM - 002065887734
Rhonda, Toni, and all who have been hoping I'd get to do presents with my grandson, David...Lisa ended up bringing me some medicine I needed last night & we had a small impromptu gift opening. She loved her books. David was thrilled with them too. He'd point and say, "Oh! I loved that! That was so much fun!!!" (He was remembering Disney World favorites.) He loved his little books I made for him. His favorite was the Old West Festival book. I called it Marshall Janson & had to explain what a Marshall was...it was in Dodge City during Wyatt Earp's time. Of course, I had to tell him who Wyatt Earp was. I had a ball talking about Bat Masterson, The Dalton Gang. Stuff I used to play instead of Star Wars and DS video games. Lisa didn't feel too good yet, but we had to wait while David read his entire book in poor lighting. Guess what??? The highlight of his entire night was John's little plastic junky eyeglass-compass-binoucular-mirror thingy. I hadn't even wanted to give it to David it was so "junky"!!! He loved it! IT WAS HIS FAVORITE! "Cool. I can hang this on my pants!" which is EXACTLY what John said he'd say. (I told Lisa to disinfect it. It was from a resale shop, I'm sure. It definitely was not new. I just wanted it clean.) I did not have a camera, so no photos at all this year except for Bass Pro Shop. John had charged my battery & I had no idea where it was. Neither did John. Guess we are not supposed to have photos this year. I am so glad everyone came through the flu ok, that I'm not upset. I'm just tired. So it's for real, we had Christmas...late & not planned, but wonderful. I got to see my daughter and grandson. That is ALWAYS wonderful!
1/10/2010 8:20:47 PM - 002020640084
BARBARA,
YOUR MYRTLE BEACH PAGE IS BEAUTIFUL!!! :)
1/10/2010 8:12:58 PM - 002020640084

1/9/2010 3:30:10 AM - 002035648808
Hi Miss Jean..I hope you are feeling better. I got sick again this afternoon. I'm not sure with what, but I just slept for about 3 hours and that is so not like me. I got both flu shots so I don't think it could be that. I don't know if the freezing cold weather is catching up with me or if I am run down. I feel really dizzy and tired. Yuck. I hope you get to have your Christmas with David this week-end. Thanks for the congrats. I am really excited about my new job. I hope that I am 100% healthy by Feb. 8. My trip to DC and then VA is just in a couple of weeks. I had better start feeling better fast. I have to play the piano for church Sunday. I'll talk at ya later. Love ya....Rhonda
1/9/2010 12:35:17 AM - 002065887734
Toni, no I haven't yet. This past weekend I ended up with something yucky & Lisa still had leftover flu. We are planning for this weekend. I hope tomorrow!
1/7/2010 10:38:35 PM - 002020640084
DID YOU GET TO SPEND TIME WITH DAVID THIS WEEKEND & CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS WITH HIM?
1/7/2010 10:27:18 PM - 002020640084
BARBARA,
I LOVE YOUR NEW YEARS PHOTOS TAKEN AT SMOKY BONES! WE LOVE THAT PLACE AND WENT 2 DAYS AGO! WE WENT A FEW TIMES IN DEC. BECAUSE THEY HAD GOOD COUPONS & WHILE YOU ARE EATING IF YOU BOUGHT A GIFT CARD YOU GOT ANOTHER $5 OR $10 OFF YOUR BILL THEN ANOTHER COUPON FOR $10!!! IT WAS AMAZING! WE WERE IN ALL OUR GLORY! LOL!!
THANKS AGAIN FOR ALL YOUR COMMENTS THIS WEEKEND!!!! I'M GLAD YOU ENJOYED THE ANIMAL PHOTOS & THE CHRISTMAS ALBUMS!!! :)
1/6/2010 11:04:27 PM - 002035648808
Well good news. I have had a job offer. You talk about a long day. It started off with me interviewing with a panel of 11 people. This was for the case management job. There were 3 Social Workers and 7 RN's and one controller present. That interview lasted for 45 minutes. I then had to go to my uncle's house and wait around until 1:00 for my second interview. Thank goodness the second interview was with only the head of the department. This was for the Clinical Documentaion Specialist. It is a brand new job and no one has had it yet. I met with her for about 1 hour. After that, I had to wait around for 45 minutes to meet with the CFO of the hospital to see how the interviews went and to see if I was to meet with the Wound Clinic Coordinator. The CFO had met with the team of 11 people and they were prepared to hire me today. I have that job offer and the CFO is waiting to hear how the second interview went. At least I know I have one of the jobs. I am keeping my fingers crossed because I would love to have the Clinical Documentaion Specialist. It seems a little more flexible and my cup of tea. I have always liked trying new things and am always up for a challange. It is just my personality. Thanks for all the prayers. They are so much appreciated on my end. I have come to realize that the power of prayer is so vital and can do wonderful things. I am so pround to have found so many shutterfly friends.
1/6/2010 9:10:02 AM - 002065887734
Lisa, I wasn't thinging but I really DID change my site. Took off most of family stuff and everything, almost EVERYTHING is from our quick visit to Bass Pro Shop...thanks to you. I really appreciate you letting me know about it! I had gotten tired of looking at family for so long...That young lady always has fun. I didn't even put in all the photos! She is wonderful. It was New Years Day & John had dragged me out for my first day out for fun since Dec. 22nd. No makeup, no hair fluffed, nothing. She is a hostess/waitress at our favorite place & don't know what we'd do if she left. She's a character & soooo Southern. (maybe not, but sure sounds it)
I just stuck these up. Didn't know what else to do with them & they were cute, due to Felicia. p.s. She asked, "did you see my butt?" and I'm thinking "WHAT!" she turned around and about 3 tables started howling with laughter. She can carry off about anything. Happy New Years!!! Love it!
1/5/2010 8:17:58 PM - 001024320926
Hi Barbara Jean, hoping you and the family are feeling better. I was down with allergies something awful over the New Year Holiday but I'm good to go now.
LOL!!! You had me going on all the stuff I missed on your site because my net wasn't working, I was so frustrated that night.
Hope the weather is being good to you there. Supposed to be in the teens here on Thurdays and maybe some snow too. We'll see. I love all the Santa pictures on here, your grandson is adorable too!! It's no fun when they out grow Santa pictures.
Love the New Years Day pictures, that young lady was having some fun :)
1/5/2010 5:35:53 PM - 002035648808
Hi Miss Jean. Sorry to hear that you are sick again. I had two bouts also, only colds though. I slept for 4 hours Sunday after chuch and I feel much better. Thanks for the compliments on the St. Catherine's page. I added the collage of Graciie Sue and Chico on you pet page. What I met, is if you copy pictures off Facebook they are very bad. I posted the one from my shutterfly account :) I hope you feel better my friend. I am going for my two interviews tomorrow at the hospital that is 50 miles away. That is the disadvantage of living in a small community. There is not place to work in you rprofession! OH, well, with all the prayers that have gone up, I am feeling good about the interviews tomorrow. Keep praying though! I'll catch ya later. Enjoy the pics!
1/4/2010 2:11:29 PM - 002059460698
Thanks so much for adding me to your site, and thanks for the wonderful compliments about mine. I just love Shutterfly and how it allows you to meet and share on line. I love looking at all of your pictures and it's great to know that even the little ferals in the world have a guardian angel watching over them. Bless you!
1/4/2010 1:07:57 AM - 001024320926
Happy New Year Barbara Jean!!! My net is driving my up a tree. I can leave comments but I can't see any pictures on here!! I'll be back tomorrow though.
Thanks fro all the great comments on my share site and the FB!! Too fun!!
1/3/2010 3:40:06 PM - 000076738705

1/2/2010 6:28:28 PM - 002020640084
BARBARA,
I JUST EMAILED YOU ABOUT THE PITTSBURGH ZOO! YES, I DID GUESS YOU LOVED ANIMALS! LOL!
I LOVE ALL THE NEW PHOTOS YOU ADDED OF MATTHEW & MELODY! THE ONE OF MELODY ALL GROWN UP WITH HER HUSBAND & SWEET LITTLE BUNDLE OF JOY IS SO PRECIOUS!!! :)
1/2/2010 5:33:36 PM - 002065887734
Dear Toni, WE are checking out that zoo in spring or summer if it's as nice as it looks. Cincy and Columbus have good zoos, but we've been so often. I'd like a change up & I LOVE animals, as you probably guessed.
1/2/2010 3:44:39 PM - 002020640084
I'M THRILLED YOU ENJOYED THE PHOTOS I ADDED TO CONNIES SITE! THE TIGER PHOTO WAS TAKEN AT THE PITTSBURG ZOO! I LOVE THAT ONE AS WELL!!! I WANT TO MAKE MASON & MY NIECE KOURTNEY AN ANIMAL BOOK WITH SOME LITTLE FACTS IN IT SOMEDAY SOON I HOPE! :)
1/2/2010 3:40:39 PM - 002020640084
BARBARA,
HAPPY NEW YEAR! I'M SO HAPPY TO HEAR YOU WILL BE SEEING DAVID THIS WEEKEND & CELEBRATING WITH YOUR FAMILY! YESTERDAY IT MUST HAVE FELT SO GOOD TO GET OUT OF THE HOUSE TO GO TO DINNER! ENJOY YOUR WEEKEND!:)
1/2/2010 6:50:31 AM - 002065887734
To some who have wondered who the little dark haired girl in many photos is...I've added a couple of photos. She's my niece, Melody, & was same age as Matthew. She is now a lovely young woman with one nursing degree & working on her second. She has a hubby and brand new baby. She was so glad that her Nan-Nan (my mom) got to see Corinne. I have some photos to scan in later, but have to find them first...does anyone else misplace photos even though they have "photo boxes"?
1/1/2010 7:53:56 AM - 002035648808
Happy 2010 Miss Jean...I hope this year brings you much peace and happiness. I hope you all are feeling much better. By the way, I love the dog to the left. Who does he/she belong too? How cute is that:)
12/31/2009 4:23:25 PM - 001024320926
I can hardly believe Christmas has come and gone already. That is always a little bit of a let down for me. Love the pictures on this page. Your site is wonderful!!
12/30/2009 4:14:24 PM - 002020640084
BARBARA,
HOPE YOUR FEELING BETTER! HOPEFULLY NO ONE ELSE WILL CATCH THE FLU IN YOUR FAMILY! THINKING OF YOU! TAKE CARE!
I LOVE THE PHOTO OF MISSY & NILLA WITH THE PARTY HAT! TOO CUTE! :)
12/29/2009 7:18:40 PM - 001059933021
I wish you and your family a warm and wonderful special day or night this New Year's Eve! Thanks for being a friend, too!
12/28/2009 3:23:30 PM - 002029331419
Hi Barbara Jean! I'm so sorry that you were ill last week! You have had such a tough last few weeks...I'm so sorry!
I do hope that you were able to enjoy a little bit of the holiday season - just by this page - it shows that you have good memories of the Christmas season! Did you get to see David on Christmas?
It is a wonderful thing to 'adopt' a family that is having some hard times during Christmas....I find it to usually be a gift --- to me!!
I find it very hard to come back to work after being off for 4 days! But I'm here and making some site stops to at least enjoy my morning!! :0)
12/27/2009 12:41:59 AM - 002020640084
BARBARA,
HOPE YOU WERE ABLE TO MAKE THE BEST OF THIS CHRISTMAS! I KNOW IT MUST HAVE BEEN DIFFICULT! YOU AND YOUR FAMILY ARE IN MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS! HOPE SANTA BROUGHT DAVID EVERYTHING HE HAD ON HIS WISH LIST THIS YEAR! :)
12/25/2009 8:34:16 AM - 002035648808
Merry Christmas my Dear Friend. I hope that today is filled with love and joy for you and your lovely family. I have so enjoyed getting to know you over the past few months and feel that I have a friend for life. I would love to meet you someday. Take care my dear and God Bless:)
12/24/2009 3:48:05 PM - 001024320926
Merry Christmas Barbara Jean!!! I had hoped to come by yesterday but work was a nightmare! I'm off today and tomorrow so I thought I should come by for a visit ;)
I love the Santa pictures you added, ya'll look so great!! The Bass Pro Shop has really ramped up their Wonderland over the last couple years. I can remember going and there were no lines to see Santa at all, now it's a 45 minute wait! Kyleigh loves the Bass Pro, all the animals and fish!! I know what you mean, if they had something like that when Nick and Rider were little it would have been pretty fun!
Guess what?! It's supposed to snow here today!! I'm so excited! I sure it happens!!!
Merry, Merry Christmas Barbara Jean!!
12/23/2009 5:11:46 AM - 002035648808
I love, love the pictures you added to my site. They are great. I'm glad everything is over for you! I hope you can now enjoy your wonderful Christmas week:)
12/23/2009 1:31:34 AM - 002035648808
I couldn't help but think of you today, as I pulled in my drive to my house and there were about 25 deer nibbling on the clover that Larry planted for them this past year. I am so glad that Larry has chosen to treat our property like a wildlife sanctuary. It is such a blessing to have all the wild animals around much of the time. I understand the deer season aspect, and the need to thin out the population, but I so enjoy the other 51 weeks of the year much better. Larry is very conservation minded and is always working with the Conservation Agents on better ways to improve our land to help provide nice habitats for the wildlife in our area. They have even come in and done prescribed burns and such to help with the undergrowth. It was really cool when I drove through today. The deer stopped, looked up at me, and started eating again. Now, that is security if I ever saw it. And then, low and behold there were a flock of wild turkey out there in the middle of them nibbling away also. I hope your day is going well. I know today was the day that you were going to lay your mamma to rest. I hope that you are still experiencing the peace that you have felt since your mother passed last week. Take care my dear friend and God Bless:)
12/21/2009 10:00:13 PM - 002020640084
BARBARA,
JUST STOPPED BY TO SAY I'M THINKING OF YOU! THIS PAGE IS SPECTACULAR! I HAD SO MUCH FUN CHECKING OUT THE MATTHEW & LISA THROUGH THE YEARS ALBUM! :)

BARBARA,
THANKS SO MUCH FOR STOPPING BY THIS WEEKEND AND LEAVING ALL THE GORGEOUS PHOTOS! IT WAS SO SWEET OF YOU TO COMMENT ON SO MANY OF MY PHOTOS! I'M SO GLAD YOU ENJOYED THEM! I LOVE THE NEW 2009 PHOTO OF DAVID WITH SANTA! THIS ONE OF DAVID IN THE BOX EATING ICECREAM IS SO SWEET! :)
12/18/2009 3:26:54 PM - 002029331419
Hi Barbara Jean!! Loved that you stopped by today!! Your home page is just so fun...the kids expressions...and I can telll that you really enjoy seeing this holiday through the eyes of children!!
I played "Old Toy Trains' song for my hubby last night...again....and again...he loved it! :0) I bet he is whistling it this morning while he is getting the leaves cleaned up in the front yard!
Sometimes I get a song stuck in my head and ....yep...it's there all day!
Take care Lady! :))

Just stopping by to say hi and thanks for all the compliments on Lexy's photobook. She is a little miracle isn't she! I hope your mother is doing as well as can be expected and things go well for your family. Take care:)
12/9/2009 9:08:49 PM - 002029331419
Hi Barbara Jean! Good to see you stopping by last night!! I have to tell you...I borrowed your Roger Miller song...I added it to my song list! It's a great song!
So tomorrow we head out to San Antonio...will be 70's by the weekend... I can't wait! I'm excited about taking a trip with Steve, the last 2 have been by myself..we have such a good time together!
Hey..How'd you get 2 home pages? LOL!!
Hold onto your hat....the wind is coming your way I think ...and it wasn't fun when it was here!
I'll go take a look around see what's new!
12/8/2009 8:40:26 PM - 002065887734
Rhonda, your book for Lexy is so good, it's hard for me to talk about it. (You know I never shut up, so that MUST be REALLY good). Hope lots check it out in the Gallery...you did post it didn't you? I love it and the little girl it's about. I love the fact that it's about a little girl. A little girl who has a life threatening illness,,,but still a little girl who plays in her little pool, and makes messes with with her cake, and loves big floppy hats. What a gift to her family...to your whole family...AND to all of us! Thank you.
12/7/2009 11:08:28 PM - 001059933021
I goofed!
Thank you and wish you a nice Christmas!
12/7/2009 11:05:20 PM - 001059933021
Thanks again for visiting my site and for the positive feedback you left behind.
There are benefits of sharing sites. You get to interact with some of the intelligent and friendliest people in the world and share ideas with them. You are one of "them," Barbara. Now I know that your main talent is writing! Here's another thing I learned about you. While some people loves hammering down anyone who rises above others, you are raising others to a higher position than you! You are also definitely pious to your Mom and your Aunt!
Thank you and wish a nice Christmas!
12/7/2009 4:49:01 PM - 002035648808
I'll be back in a bit. Running out to the Doc for my annual, and in this case, every two year physical, ugh. I will fix it for ya this afternoon. Love ya:)
12/6/2009 8:50:44 PM - 002035648808
Hi Barbara Jean...I got home early this morning. Actually 12:30 A.M. to be exact:) I left some photos on your Christmas Page:) I think your site is awesome and it likes Benny and others think so too! How cool is that! I thought I would stop by and let you knwo what's been going on with Little Lexy. We were rushing into the Fox Theatre on Friday evening for the Nutcracker. Janna told me that I had a missed message from my sister Tracy. I had her read it to me as all of us were rushing in before they shut the doors on us! The message was that Lexy had another major seizure while in the tub and slipped under the water and aspirated. Her dad was with her, immediately pulled her from under the water and administered CPR. She spent the night in the hospital and is doing well for the moment. I didn't get the last part of the story until after the Nutcracker and almost worried myself sick that something bad would still happen with the little angel. As soon as the Nutcracker was over and we said our goodbyes to the boys and Mirranda and Mary, I called Tracy to get the scoop. Lexy is home and fine. Tracy and her family is very grateful for God and his army of angels watching out for our Little Lexy. Please let everyone you know to keep praying for this little darling. Who would have thought in their wildest dreams that she could come close to drowning with her dad or mom right with there with her when she was in the tub. This is such scary stuff. Then to top it off, I got home at 12:30 A.M. Sunday morning, and the CD Of pics of Lexy that I have been waiting for 2 weeks had finally arrived in the mail this Saturday. I downloaded it after chuch today and the pictures are remarkable. They sent 205 absolutely precious pictures. It just breaks my heart doing a photbook for them because I am scared that she won't have many future photobooks. I become so emotional just looking at her pictures that I don't know if I will be able to complete the book. I so want to get it done and in my hands before Christmas, because I want her dad Josh to have it to take to Afghanistan in April. And if this is not enough to worry about, Luke has been running a 103 temperature all week-end and cannot get in to see the Dr. until Tues. Jeff and Mary said that he has never really recovered from the H1N1 that hit him on Oct. 27. I don't know how pushy to get with them about getting him to the Dr. before Tues. I kept mentioning secondary infections and such, but don't know how hard to push! It is so frustrating! I am afraid he has pneumonia. He is taking 4 and 5 hour naps and this is not my Little Luke. He wouldn't come to me or Janna at all Friday when we saw the little guy! He was not sick at all during his first year of life and we got so used to him being so healthy. Any and all prayers for Little Luke and Lexy would be much appreciated! Thank you so much! Have a great week Miss Jean. I appreciate having you as such a great friend:)
12/5/2009 6:25:30 PM - 001059933021
When I got out of bed today I didn't expect to see nicely written comments from you! Anyone who can write the way you do is quite cool! I was surely impressed! Words cannot express your comments awesomeness! I never fretted about making mistakes in front of others, but I usually dislike making errors when I'm writing. I know misspelled words will cause the word processor to underline the errors with squiggly lines, yet I always double-check what I've written.
Barbara Jean, You have an awe-inspiring site! Amazing visuals that jump out at you! A truly amazing site of the most incredible photos you can imagine!
The felines page got my heart racing in an instant. A cat is an iconic symbol of Japan that can be found in many entrances of homes and restaurants in that part of the world. Cat has become quite a symbol across the world for luck and fortune! I love your cooky, wacky and awesome cats!
Christmas isn't that far off-Merry Christmas to you and your family!
Thanks for visiting my site! I am so grateful for all your comments!
12/4/2009 2:38:38 PM - 002035648808
Hi Miss Jean....thanks so much for the lovely emails about journaling. After you put it like that about capturing memories in writing for future generations I have a completley different prospective on jounaling. I always think my journaling is goofy. I do just write from my heart, but I never know if I explain it well enough. I had to laugh at myself, though! When I was a freshman in college I told them I wanted in remedial writing classes. Back in the day you had to take an entrance exam for placement in classes. This was before the ACT days. After they pulled my scores out in Language/writing skiils, they ROFLOL because I had blown the top off my score in this area. This was my best thing score that I had. I just got a B in the regular class because I hated it so bad. Now give me chemistry, medical stuff, nutrition, stuff like that and I am heaven:) You know how sometimes we have an area that we lack confidence in? I guess this is mine. Thanks again for the encouragement because it made me think of this funny story:) Plus, I am going to make an effort to jounal on my pictures from now on. I think I will start on my sharesite first and MAYBE someone could read them and critique them for me, hint, hint:)
12/4/2009 12:21:20 AM - 001024320926
Wow!! Look at all the great Thanksgiving pictures! That is so wonderful you got to have your family together for the holiday. Love all the pictures!! Our Thanksgiving was quiet too, it was nice :) I love Turkey though, so any excuse to cook turkey is fine by me :)
It's cold here in Dallas, they are predicting snow tomorrow! It did snow here yesterday but it only lasted an hour :( I did take pictures of it all though, plus there are two girls here that had never been in snow before so I marched them outside and took there pictures!! Too fun!!
Hope all is well there and I'll be checking on you.
12/1/2009 8:52:39 PM - 002029331419
Look What a GREAT Dinner you all had! Yumm!! I loved the pics of you and your daughter cooking together! I did some cooking at my sister Rhonda's house...it was so fun! And my nephew was quite disappointed when he found out that I only made one batch of cookies...he was under the impression I was making more that night! NOT!! haha!!
Your site just keeps getting better and better!! You have come so far on moving things to just the right place, your pics are great and your journal a lot...so easy to understand!! Nice Job Barbara Jean!!!
12/1/2009 5:46:09 AM - 002065887734
Rhonda, I will let Lisa know. It turned out super. She broke lots of traditions and her cranberry stuff was incredible. (We all love cranberry receipes). Hers was the best ever! Turkey was cut with a fork! Everything from scratch, while I cheat sometimes. She had so much fun making the stuff. She kept lifting the lids & I love to take photos of steam, so it turned out a good match.
11/30/2009 11:47:49 PM - 002035648808
Tell Lisa Ann that her Thanksgiving meal looks delicious:)
11/29/2009 7:43:31 PM - 002035648808
Hey Barb...I love the pcitures on on this page. Iam glad that you got to spend time with your family over the holiday! I will keep in touch!
11/26/2009 3:14:20 PM - 001024320926
Just stopping to wish you and yours a Happy Thanksgiving!! Have a most wonderful and blessed day with your grandson!!
11/25/2009 5:38:28 AM - 001024320926
Hi Barbara, you sent me an email sayign your mom was in the hospital, is everything stable now?
I was out of town or I would have been by sooner, sorry for the delay. Had a great time with Jean and Jamie, toooo fun!!
Love the apples in the fog slideshow, it's wonderful :)
11/24/2009 8:56:01 PM - 002020640084
BARB,
THIS HOME PAGE WITH ALL THE DEER AND FALL FOLIAGE IS BEAUTIFUL! HAPPY THANKSGIVING! :)
11/21/2009 10:42:18 PM - 002035648808
Bad, bad news Barb! One of your floating bucks is laying in the back of my husbands pick-up truck. It is the last week-end of regular deer season here in the Ozarks and he decided to go out and get one with a nice rack:( I will learn to quit taking pics of my wildlife because I am getting to attached, dang it!
11/21/2009 10:38:21 PM - 002035648808
Hi Barbara..I am so sorry to hear about the turmoil with your family over your mom...You said that you read on facebook that she was being taken off dialysis? Is that what I understood..I hope that you continue to spend quality time with her in spite of any issues that others may be having...All your sweet comments brighten my day. About those floating bucks, I had just moved them to my guest page...You will need to check it out, but in the meantime the floating bucks are back on my fall in the ozark page! Thanks for recomending my site. I will have to go check out BarbaraJ's site to see what's up! I am glad you read my journal entry's. I am not a very good writer and always hated it in school, but it seems to be getting easier when I have a story to tell. I really didn't want to post my journal entry on Lexy's page, because I want it to more positive for Lexy and her family. My sister is absolutely in love with Felicia, her new step-daughter and Little Lexy...Felicia considers Tracy to be her mom and even calls her mom. They are so good together. I hope your week-end goes well, and I will continue to pray for your dear mother and your family:)
11/19/2009 5:35:02 AM - 002035648808
I cannot keep your families site straight:)
11/19/2009 5:34:36 AM - 002035648808
Oh, and if your daughter tells you about the crazy lady that just posted the comment that I just sent you, that would be me:) LOL!
11/19/2009 5:33:52 AM - 002035648808
Hi Barb! I am so sorry to hear about your mamma! I went through a similar situation with my father, and unfortunately, I just had to stand by and watch, since he wasn't in my nursing home at the time. He has been gone five years now. He was only 72 when he passed. I would have gladly helped you with you mom. I know how tough it is when we have to place our parents in a nursing home. I was the Director for 22 years and had a deep fondness for all of our residents. I then worked as a nursing home inspector and that was just too depressing for me. I did not have enough power to see that the homes fix their problems. I am now a legal nurse reviewing nursing home cases for merit. Someone has to stand up for our frail elderly! I am so passionate about this issue, that I have been asked to speak before the Missouri Congress sometime in the near future so that our legislators can get a grasp on what is going on out in the "real" world for our frail elderly:( I will say a prayer for your mom that she will rest peacefully with her family at her side. You take care and cherish these last moments with her! Thanks for always stopping by my site and checking up on me, I truly appreciate it! Check out Lexy Bugs page and read her story..It is soo sad and endearing at the same time!
11/18/2009 1:49:02 AM - 001024320926
Like Jean said.........love all the new stuff!! Just stopping to say hi and look around!!
11/17/2009 5:20:08 PM - 002029331419
Hey Barb!!! You have beeen BUUUSSSY!!! Love all of your changes, re-arranges and updates!! You've really spiced up your site and it looks Great!! I've really enjoyed looking around and just enjoying all that you have done!!
With the cooler weather ...all of the sites get a little more attention then when it's so pretty out! ha!
Hope all is well for you!
I'll head to Texas this weekend, back for a day and then off to Colorado for Thanksgiving!!
Whew...it's going to be busy!! But I love traveling around and I'll see my Mom! Haven't been to Pueblo since Feb...it 's my turn to hit the highway...that is...unless a storm rolls through!
Ok, deary...just had to stop by!! What a pleasure to visit your site!:0)
11/13/2009 4:31:57 PM - 001024320926
The music in the car is something I soooo would do to my family :) I just recently had my photobook party and I had Smokey Mountain Christmas music playing the whole time. They loved it.
Your fall pictures are so awesome. I was noticing that all the leaves are falling off the trees in Texas, some of them haven't even turned yet. Bummer!!
Going to Fredericksburg next weekend with Jamie and Linda, Jean is flying down too. Should be alot of fun:) I sure hope the fall color hangs on until we can get there with our cameras :)
11/11/2009 6:06:11 AM - 002035648808
Hi Barbara Jean...Thanks for stopping by my site and visiting...I hope things are going well for you and your kitties..I will stop by that site later to check things out. Does your daughter have more than one site? I stopped by a few days ago and introduced my self. I left her some comments, and now I don't seem to be able to find her. I swear, everytime I am on my page, I think I'm on my own. LOL! We certianly have similar taste. I'm going to look around then jump over to your kitty site. Catch ya on shutterfly:)
11/10/2009 7:13:24 PM - 002065887734
hi Lisa, I drove the kids to Fla. in the summer (maybe 16=18 hours) while we listened to Christmas Music. I have some really neat Celtic Christmas (unusual, gorgeous) too, so they had a variety. I don't know why they needed a break every now & then. I think we would fit nicely. I'm babysitting my Grandson, & having a ball. I don't get to see him as much since he started school, but i try as much as I can. Got to see him in Scouts last night. Got photos of course.
11/10/2009 4:12:24 AM - 001024320926
Hi Barbara Jean, first before I forget, I think you can change your setting to allow you to post a comment by going up to the Customize at the top, top of your site. Go to site settings and see what is check in the perferences. If you have more trouble then email me at lisajrfan@yahoo.com.
Yea!! Your Lisa visited too!! Very cool hearing from you both. I know you said your son lives a ways away, do Lisa and her son live near you? I hope so. You sound like a very proud grandma :) It's one of my favorite things.
Too funny your comment on my Christmas Magic page :) Truth be told I am a Christmas fan and if I could get away with having that page as my home page year round I probably would :) I put my decorations out too early, listen to Christmas music in my car, and sing around my tree when I can. I love it all :) Usually in October I start watching movies like White Christmas. I know, I know but I can't stop myself :)
Hope this week is going well for you, Lisa
11/8/2009 8:18:03 PM - 001076975951
Hi barbara Jean, How are you doing? Hope your weekend is going well. I so enjoy seeing that you have stopped by and explored my sites. Thanks for the sweet and kind comments you add to my guestbook.
Anyway I just wanted to say Hello and have a great day. see you on the sites. take care.
11/7/2009 6:32:59 AM - 002065887734
Hello, Lisa. Yes, I have Lisa (29) and Matthew (31) and grandson, David (8). I wanted a larger family, but like the Stones say, "You can't always get what you want." I love to visit sites. I just love it. I get to see all these neat photos and get different ideas and views of the world. I get to see lots of places that I won't be able to go to in person. I don't have TV since it went digital, and Shutterfly is a lot more fun than TV anyway. I'd like to take some photo classes this spring. I love Shutterfly. It has opened up a whole new world for me and energized me.
Your fall trip sounds great. I can look at mountains, leaves, animals, water ...forever. It would be great to plan the trip! Keep me updated. Barb
11/7/2009 3:11:07 AM - 001024320926
Hi there Barbara Jean!! At last I am caught up and feel free enough to check out the share sites :) I posted a bunch of pictures and got some things done here at work.
Thanks so much for your great comments. I see you all over the share sites and I think how great it is to be in this community of people :)
Your fall pictures are so great!!! Ohio looks like a gorgeous place to be during fall :) Fall is my favorite. I plan on going on a fall foliage drive next year :) I already can't wait.
Love your site and all the great pages. Love it!! I think I saw that your daughters name is Lisa too :) That's so fun :) Do you have just the two kids?
11/6/2009 8:10:47 PM - 001076975951
Hi Barbara Jean...thanks for visiting and viewing my Europe/Cruise photos. It was nice that you left some comments about my photos....Glad to always read what other S/F friends have to say about my photos. I too like the small touches of a vacation a simple menu, a street sign a smile from a native. that adds a personal touch. Hope to add more journaling notes in the coming week so stop by again.
Have a great weekend and take care.
11/3/2009 9:27:31 PM - 002029331419
Hey Barbara!! You got a Video!!?? Did you know you can put a video on your Shutterfly site?! ... I have no idea of how to do it..but I think it is possible!!
I'm glad you liked my journal entry and understood what I was trying to say!!
I gave Sadie a bath on Sunday afternoon, it was so beautiful out. She sits so good and closes her eyes with the warm water...I think she's telling her self she's at a doggy spa or something! LOL! Then when I tell her ok! She runs all around the yard and rolls in the grass! Then of course...I have to give her much expected cookie...since she sat so good! ha ha...Just thought you'd get a kick out of that!
11/3/2009 7:03:59 PM - 002035648808
I just finished looking at your site. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful! I left you a comment on your blog about your feral kitty's:) Your David could be one of my sons! I cannot believe the resemblance. One of these days I am going to scan pictures of my two sons who are now 27 and 24 and do their own page like I did Janna's page. You are going to be amazed how much David looks like my second son Jason. Now I know why you think Luke looks like him. Luke really favors Jason as much as his own dad, Jeff. I love Disney too. You'll have to check out my vacation pics. We also love Universal and Islands of Adventure, but Disney tops them all, especially for kids and the young at heart. I can't wait until I can take Luke. I am stunned by your choice of pictures. I really thought that I was on my own site at times. It is so nice getting to know you and your wonderful family. Is David's mom your daughter? I will need to get the family tree down. It takes me awhile, I think it is the 50 year old thing:( LOL! I love the page where you got your replacement family at the pumpkin patch. How much fun is that! I hope to see you around my site often. I will surely be back to visit your site often:)
11/3/2009 6:27:59 PM - 002035648808
My sister-in-law and brother-in-law recently visited West Virginia for 9 days. You all must have been there around the same time because they said it rained the entire time. I love your headers on this page:)
11/3/2009 6:26:15 PM - 002035648808
Wow....You love all the same pictures that I do! This is amazing. I love deer pics also. I have tons on my home page. I love everything about this page. Thanks so much for sharing:) I love the apples in the fog picture. The fire widget is too cool. I might have to steal it. I hope you don't mind:) I can't wait to explore you site some more!
11/3/2009 5:48:06 PM - 002055694880
Beautiful Fall colors!! Love all the shots. Very Nice!! Love all the fall colors and the deer and the tree and just great shots!
11/3/2009 2:54:41 AM - 001024320926
Hi Barbara :) Thanks for all the great comments today, what a treat!! You sent me an email and I haven't had a chance to go thru my emails today like I thought I would be able to but I am hopeful to get a few things done tomorrow :)
Nick is 24 now and Rider is 20!! I can hardly believe that, I blinked and they were grown and I have a wnderful granddaughter :) She has been a total blessing!! I love having in my life, I count the days til I'm with her every week :)
You are so sweet to look at all my pages and comment, makes my day to see people have been there :) I think your site is an inspiration, love the home page and your fall page is awesome!!! Love the pumpkins!!! Love the Disney pictures too!!!
11/2/2009 12:28:43 AM - 002063504014
Nice selection of pictures, the fall colors and numerous deer are special. West Virginia looks gorgeous, I just got back from the Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia, which wa quite a treat.
11/1/2009 11:27:02 PM - 001024320926
Barbara, I forgot to tell you about the slideshows. Go to options, just to the right of your slideshow, then click edit settings, then click the slideshow tab, when that opens you'll see transitions: in the box there click the slide down arrow and it will show you all the ways you can so slideshows :) Hope that helps and if you have trouble email me ;)
11/1/2009 11:23:31 PM - 000074469281
Hi Barbabra, I just noticed you left a comment on one of the wedding photos on my site. Thats my youngest sister and her lovely husband on their Nov 8, 1997 wedding. Almost 12 years ago and 3 kids later!
11/1/2009 4:32:03 PM - 000074469281
How gorgeous are you fall pictures. Love the Family Portrait!
Thanks for viisting my site as always. You were asking about the Simple Path books. They are designed to make things easy and yes they don't all much control; which we are so used to. Its designed for those who want to do a quick book with minimal changes and its also a good starter book for the beginner. It is hard to let them do it all basically. You can still change things around, change the background (you can't change every page-the whole book has the same theme) and the font selection is limited.
10/31/2009 11:19:06 PM - 001024320926
Hi Barbara, Thanks for stopping by and for the awesome comments!! I love, love the fall pictures you have here and the Fall page is wonderful. I love fall and all that it brings with it. Those pictures make me want to jump in my car and head toward the Blu Ridge Parkway. Beautiful!!
I wanted to stop by and wish you a Happy Halloween, hope you have a spooktastic time!!!
10/29/2009 3:40:43 AM - 001024320926
Hi Barbara, thanks for all the great comments on my site. I was in San Francisco and got back last night. Today I am trying to catch up on my site hopping, there are so many great Fall pictures out there. I love your headers, those deer are wonderul :)

Hi Barbara, How are you doing? Thanks for stopping by my gallery site and exploring my pages. I am glad that you like my page dedicated to New York City. And that you have special memories of the Big Apple when you brother was living here. Stop by anytime and I am enjoying my time here on your site. Have a great evening.

Hi Barbara! I got a chance to go see your The Cat's take over site....wow....kitty's everywhere! LOL!! It is such a good site! Lots of pictures, great information and I could feel your passion over this very important situation!! I even added some pictures of Sadie...and if you want to look...she has her own page on my site. I haven't put to many new pics on there...so I need to get some from camping. You will see with her...just like with your furry babies...that they are kinda rough around the edges to start with...but letting them grow into the beauties that the Lord created in them...and they are wonderful!! When we got Sadie...her ribs were showing and she was so thin, coughing, bad coat....but if you see some of her 'grown up' pictures...she's beautiful with the cutest ears! Check out her page! Now for the Rott...Chyna...she hates the camera...so when I do get some of her, it's rare! They also have a beautiful Lab named Dakota....and the funniest Lemon Beagle named Easton! So 2 big dogs and the Beagle...they are a funny group walking around! ha! But, my Daughter in Law sure feels safe having all 3 of them in the house when she's there with the baby...my son works graveyard...through the night. Wow...I sure go on and on....hehe!!
Catch ya later!

Hi Barbara Jean! Had to come take a look around. I like your changes!! Your headers are beautiful!! Fall is a wonderful time in Ohio..I've been back there in November for just a few days - I thought it was lovely! :0)
The apple tree in the fog is very cool!
I have a busy week at work..as I'm headed to Colorado this weekend! We all got snow in the Rockies so the mountain caps will be pretty! Take care..I'll shoot you an email!

Your message on left is perfect!! I like the changes you made. Looks great!

Hi Barbara Jean. Sorry its been awhile that I have been able to get back to you. I have been without my Internet for 5 days and just got it back Thurs., so trying to catch up!
I love all your photos on your site and thank you so much for the comments on my site.
The layouts i used in my Summer book are all Shutterfly templates. Is there a particular one you are looking at? Some of the collage layouts with 6 or 9 grids - i may only use 3 photos - gives it a different look.
You asked how to changed to Home Page background. Do u mean the blue? Go to customize at the top and click on Change Site Style. Then you can select a different background. Note: This will change all your pages but it won't remove anything.
Talk to u later.

Hi Barbara, thanks for stopping by my site! I'm not sure what was happening on the guestbook but it normally works. I have noticed that if there's a few people in the site then it doesn't recognize things as fast.
You have a wonderful site :) I love the Myrtle Beach pictures!! I have been wanting to go there for such a ling time. That and Tennessee in the Fall :) I'll have to make it happen at some point :)
You are welcome to visit my site as office as you would like. I will add your photobooks to my list to check out. I have a running list of things to look at and then I get to them during the week or weekend :)
Have a great day!!

Hey Barbara Jean!! Just stopping by to see what you have done...Your site is very much together...but you mentioned that you wanted to do some new things...if you want to drop me an email or post - whichever is easiest - let me know what it is you want to change about your site and I'll try to help! I see that you have 8 pages up...wow..that's very good!
Hope your having a good day ...and I'll look around some more while I'm here! :0)

Hi Barb, thanks for stopping by while i was away. Had a FABULOUS vacation. I do have some new photos posted so come on by and have a look.
I hope you are well. I'll have to explore your site when I have some more time. Take care for now.

Hey Barbara Jean! I don't remember how long your gone on your trip...but be safe! I LOL at your friend not finding a 'thing' to take pictures of around here...LOL!!! But where does he live...maybe I can point him in the direction of things worth taking pictures of! And I agree with you...Shutterfly Rocks!!
Let me know when you get back...and post some pics so we know where you went! :0)

Hi Barbara Jean,
I apologize for not getting back to you sooner. I'd be more than happy to help you with a photobook, you mean to make one?
Also, the med thing was just a ditzy move. I'm usually a lot more aware. I don't take a lot, but grabbed the wrong bottle the other morning. Oops! All is fine now.
What contest are you referring to? The dystonia one where I was trying to raise funds? I'm sure I'll do another one.
My email is J6618@msn.com
Again, I apologize its taken me so long to get back to u. I appreciate all the kind comments on my site and my walk!
Have a fun trip!

I hope enjoyed looking around! NM has had to grow on me...but it is home now for sure! I love the pic of your daughter & grandson...I've heard Myrtle Beach is really a fun place to go!
So how are all of your little furry kitties? Doing good I hope!! I didn't notice the Christmas blue! ha! But I like it, and it's just around the corner!
The Special Shape balloons were really good this morning, but the wind is a bit up - so don't know if tonights event will get off!

Hi Barbara, I am so sorry I haven't been by in so long. I had a headache everyday this week. UGH! It's a little better tonight. Thank you so much for your kind words about my site and throughout the pages. You wrote some really nice words on my Cancer Walk. Thank you - I'm still giddy about it. Do you have Cancer? I noticed in my journal section you mentioned you have pain 24/7. Oh my gosh, I am so sorry to hear that. It does help talking to others. I'd love to hear your story. If you wish to share on my site or on yours, I'd love to hear. Or if you prefer to email - mine is j6618@msn.com
Yoou also asked how I made my summer book. Do you mean how to start? I could help you with that.
Take care & know tomorrow will be a better day.

Happy Monday Barbara Jean! Hope you had a good weekend! It was so pretty here so my DIL and my Grandbaby, Hannah and I took in a little community Harvest Festival. We had a great time! I took my camera and so I'll have new pics of that too! The Hot Air Balloon Fiesta Starts this weekend and so I'll be clicking away there too! Good to see you came by - and glad that Joey can help you with the single picture question!
Catch ya later!
** Your Disney pics are very fun!!

Hi Barbara Jean! I saw your comment on Jean's - actually like Jean I thought it was your site when I clicked on Lisa's - i then read your comment again. So what I posted on Lisa's site about the Single Picture Frame, is if you mouse over it, Right Click and a menu will appear. Click Edit at the top and you'll be able to change your Single Picture Frame to what you wish it to say.
Great site - I'll have to look around. Welcome to the Share Site community - there are a lot of us who are willing to help! Stop by my site if you wish:
