Last evening we were invited to dinner at Sister Hinkler's home and she showed us this beautiful bouquet of flowers that she had gotten out of her garden. Of course we oohed and aahed over them. Well, they invited us to play some dominoes with them, so we did. Then when it was time to go home, she got the vase of flowers and handed them to us and said they were for us. The big ones are dinner plate delphiniums.Aren't they amazing?? Of course, she also gave us some of the leftovers from the meal, including a loaf of home made bread (which of course is Elder Lindblom's favorite) She had made the meal from her garden produce--homemade potato salad, with green beans in it--a home grown lettuce salad with tomatoes, etc
Now,, these next pictures are of things at Sister Fuller's house.She had the elders and us over for "brunch" and fixed us the most amazing omelets and french toast!! She is always making something and changing her house. She took all 17 doors of her cupboards down and put this new design on them. Little vine with gingerbread men climbing the tree. They are dressed with chef hat and aprons and carrying little baking tools.

She also makes new curtains for her kitchen about every other week. They are always so cute and cheery If you look closely you will see that these are her "laundry" curtains with little things on them that are used in the laundry room.

And of course the valances and you can also see the border that she has painted above the curtains.

These next couple of pictures are of the birdhouse tree that she has on her back porch. I want one of these and they may be able to get me the tree branch so Elder Lindblom can make it for me when we get home. Won't those little birdhouses that I have look great on one of these??

Now, she also paints Indian things and she painted and decorated part of her house with these.Did I tell you that they are both avid hunters and a lot of the fur things you see in her house are things that they killed and tanned themselves and made them into interesting things for decorating their home??

And I just loved these little stools that she painted with sunflowers
