Oh, My Goodness! As I was writing on the Apron thread here, my DH came in with a box that just arrived and said "Happy Mother's Day"! To my surprise it was filled with MaryJane's Farm items! How did he ever know?! Honestly. With tears streaming down my face I lefted each gift out of the box...organic mixes, organic white bath towel set, flower frog, child's size darling pillow, "Farmgirl is a condition of the heart" hooped hanging and my favorite...a "Monday" Farm Girl apron! I told him that some of these were Project F.A.R.M gifts and told him some of the stories behind it. He was touched. Blessed to have a DH who is aware of my passions!!! I am sooooo grateful to be apart of MaryJane's Farm and also happy that my Mother named me after her antigue doll named Maryjane!
Hugs to all and Happy Mother's Day Maryjane Lee

MaryJane, What a great guy to really key into what you talk about. My dh is great but I doubt that he'd even know where to go or look to get a gift like that. He's a keeper!! And Happy Mothers Day to you.

Thanks dear ladies for your sweet comments! You are right...he is a keeper! Met at 16 and we just celebrated our 36th wedding anniversary this week. I guess he should know me pretty well by now!
Big Hugs to my Farm Girl Friends! Maryjane Lee

MJ, Tell your DH "High 5's" from me..... What a gem & yep a keeper. You & your hubby sound alot like my DH & I. We met in High School, I was 16 & he was 17, we dated, he graduated, we went seperate ways for about 9 months then got back together & got married in 1972, & in '76 had our 1st/only child & were so blessed as we were told I was most likely not able to have babies. Fast forward, here it is 2007 and come Nov. we will be celebrating our 35th year. You & I are so blessed to have these wonderful men in our lives. They let us goplay in our vintage trailers & yack late at night to farmgirl sisters... Oh & by the by, if you have not tried the "PROBAR" they are great... I will need to place another order & stock up. They are all really good & I have found that they keep me satisfied when I don't have time to eat breakfest or lunch 'cause I am on the run. well, time to feed my furbabies. Enjoy all your goodies you lucky lady. tata-4-now

Grace, Thanks for all your comments on the threads tonight! I can't thank you enough for telling me about MJF! I wake up each day excited to sew, garden, visit my little trailer, wear aprons again and meet wonderful Farm Girl sisters here! We are so alike in many ways it seems! My vinatge trailer is also decorated in Shabby Chic Counrty and of course pink Cowgirl things everywhere...Oh, remember the jean purses they made everyone at Giddy Up? Well, I added glass beads and yo-yo's to it! Turned out so cute! I am going to make them for my Granddaughters this Christmas. As you say, "SEW" many neat things to do! I LOVE the picture of you with your red hat on and apron. Your blog is great! Are they hard to set up? Might do that someday. Well, hope your kitties have full tummies and your DH to!
Hugs, Maryjane
P.S. Hope you can make the Sisters on the Fly fishing trip in September! I know you will be most likely unpacking but you will need some sister time after a big move!

Hey M.J., I had my neighbor come over & walked me through the set up of my blog. It is fairly simple, kinda sorta... just go into www.blogspot.com & it will walk you through. Then after you have set it up wait a few min. & go check your e-mail, you'll get a e-mail from google about confirming your blogspot account. I like it so I can post pictures on it. I almost forgot about the sotf-jeans handbags...."make mental note to self....make sotf-jeans handbag." : > ) The little wood hanging trailer that I posted, I had made one for Janet Castegnalio(ok, so I massacured the spelling of her last name. my bad! I want to see a pic of the new & improved jeans purse-M.J. style! e-mail me a pic. Well time to turn in, I'm not getting any younger....haha!
