The Grand Finale

This is the last official post for my blog during my Online Publications class. Thank You to my instructor, Grill Girl: http://www.blogger.com/profile/02902450883159711629 blogging has been a great experience and has been fun.

 
This is the view from my deck. When the fire-pit isn't used regularly, we keep boards across it and I put plants on it. These plants are my Roma Tomatoes. The side tables are also some of my handiwork using the left over wood from the deck. They are great when we have fire-pit nights as I place Smores ingredients and hot dog fixins.

Last night for instance, we played Corn-Holes. We made ours and I painted the designs. One is of the Davie County High School (Go War Eagles!) where my husband an I graduated together in 1981, both of our kids, Jordan (2009) and Collin (2011), as well as both of my parents (1961). The other is obviously Catawba College (Go CATU !!!)



And finally, I wanted to include my very favorite plant....the majestic Magnolia.


I have artwork in my house that is magnolias. My fine china has magnolias in the design. My little white long-hair Chihuahua's name is Magnolia Grace (we call her Maggie). This picture is not from my yard, regretably. I would love to have one, but my husband refuses to put one in the yard. His grandmother has two flanking both sides of her house and it was his job when he was younger to keep the fallen leaves raked from underneath. So, there was nowhere else I could get a beautiful picture of such a fine specimen except for Catawba College!
