Hello, Dear Ones! Are you familiar with the Better Homes and Gardens Idea Homes? Well, my daughter and her husband along with little Carter just bought one! A 1958 modern ranch.

That's her kitchen on the front cover - almost! :)

They found the olden music cabinet while living in England.

Original colors, I kid you not!
Well, my daughter is going to change things as soon as she can! :)
It's surrounded by tile and I'm in love with the hood!
Well, not as much as I love little Carter, just sayin'. :)
Almost walked my tiny little short legs off! :)
The long wooden table was built for them by their neighbor while they were in England. It is built the olden way with pegs - not one nail or screw.
Four wild turkeys running across the road! I'm talking about birds with feathers not crazy people! :)
My daughter and husband have plans for their new olden home and will begin to change things soon. They haven't completely gotten things together as they just moved in about a month ago. We kinda barged in on them and for a visit so we could be with our little Carter to celebrate her birthday! :) Grandparents can do those sorts of things you know! :)
Hope you enjoyed seeing their home.

I'll leave you with a little Note Song~
I know Seymour's the greatestSomewhere That's Green
But I'm dating a semi-sadist
So I've got a black eye
And my arm's in a cast.
Still, that Seymour's a cutie
Well, if not, he's got inner beauty
And I dream of a place
Where we could be together at last
A matchbox of our own
A fence of real chain link,
A grill out on the patio
Disposal in the sink
A washer and a dryer and an ironing machine
In a tract house that we share
Somewhere that's green.
He rakes and trims the grass
He loves to mow and weed
I cook like Betty Crocker
And I look like Donna Reed
There's plastic on the furniture
To keep it neat and clean
In the Pine-Sol scented air
Somewhere that's green
Between our frozen dinner
And our bedtime, nine-fifteen
We snuggle watchin' Lucy
On our big, enormous twelve-inch screen
I'm his December Bride
He's Father, he Knows Best
Our kids watch Howdy Doody
As the sun sets in the west
A picture out of Better Homes and Gardens magazine
Far from Skid Row
I dream we'll go
somewhere that's green.
