Denise, I am going to send one to Portia's husband. I think it might be a nice thing for him to get something in the mail, don't you?
Marlene and Marilyn: I got both your cards already! Thank you. :)
Marlene, I can't wait to try out your recipe, we are going to leave out the bacon (we are veg) but I think it will still be wonderful. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you Marlene and Marilyn for the cards.
Marilyn, I love your farm animals on the card. We are practically neighbors. I have been through your lovely town of Stephenville many times. Especially for that Hard 8 Barbecue.
Marlene, I also love old farm houses and barns. The card I will be sending out has picture of the back of our old family farm house. I can't wait to make your potato salad this summer. I have never made one that was baked.
I will probably be a little late on sending out my cards. When I sighed up for this swap I didn't' realize that I was to send cards out to everyone who signed up.
No sweat. I can do it.
Hugs,
Patsy

No problem Patsy. I thought it was a cute idea when I came up with it. My hubby even said that they were cute, and he is lucky to have such a talented wife.

Thank you ladies for all the wonderful "down on the farm" cards you have been creating. Love them all, the farm animals,barn, truck and apron. What beautiful cards to celebrate our sweet sister Portia! You all are so talented. I have made a scrapbook for all of the card swaps we do and you all are making my scrapbook a wonderful treasure!

Hi Girls,
I've been living the Glamping lifestyle in the Texas Hill Country the end of Aoril--- oh the Bluebonnets and wild flowers!!! And if you remember the Bluebonnet / Long horn Bull card card I sent out last swap-- well, He Was Still There, and with a friend !!!
We enjoyed a "Luau" and I won a Two Burner Coleman propane stove. WooHoo!! Enjoyed craft classes, a barbecue, and even a trip to the gun range-
I missed my normal trip to Kerrville, where there is a fantastic quilt store called CREATIONS!! Their web site doesn't begin to give the feel of the beautiful old house with each room a new theme. --- child, modern, wool, notions, batiks, sewing machines... OH MY!! I also got to use the Longarm Quilt machine in Bandera for a new bed quilt..
This little Glamping trip consist of 150 fiberglass trailers- mostly Little Oval Eggs-- like Casitas,,Scamps, Etc. Check them out on line! Wonderful Egg Rally.
And yes, we were camping during all those awful rains San Antonio and Houston had ( National News Event). Gratefully, we had a few early morning storms, lots of lightening, but only a modest amount of rain.
Oh, and when I got home--- tons of Farm Girl mail!!! Gotta post the good stuff next!
