We've managed to stay IN the path of the huricane weather that has been dumping fair amounts of rain on parts of Texas, among others. This is a GOOD thing, as our area is notoriously dryer than other areas, and we NEED the rain.
My muck boots are in need of a little fall cleaning -- gotta brush out the cobwebs and knock out the dirt. Rather than risk meeting a spider in my boot in the dark light of the morning, I chose to just slip on Alan's boots (they were fresh off his feet, clean as a whistle!)
This morning the duck pool is completely FULL (it was nearly empty yesterday), and the barnyard is looking more like a pond than a barnyard. That tells me we've had a fair amount of rainfall...here's hoping for a bit more!
Oh, and what do you know ... here's another sneak peek at one of my new images, part of the upcoming release at Whipper Snapper Designs! Can't wait!
Love this cowboy. I am awaiting the sales of your new stamps. They are always so cute and I always have to have some. Thanks for all the great recipes you've been posting this summer.

Oh! Love your handsome cowboy in his tall hat! Glad you're getting some moisture.

Added 'cause I forgot: If someone had plunked that little cowpoke with the bouquet down in front of me, not saying a word, I'd have said, "Looks like Anna's been busy!"

We need some good rain in Central FL, but we should be careful what we wish for. Igor is lurking out there!

I'm so happy you are getting the rain! I hope it doesn't flood, though :p I'm sure the ducks are LOVING the rain!!! I hope some cooler temps will follow the rain. And then...I hope FALL arrives in TX early this year! Those summer temps are just TOO HOT!

So glad to hear you received a nice rain fall. I know how important that is, we are having to water our vegtable garden and hanging basket daily just to keep up.
Hugs from dry Maryland

We had a soggy spring then the rains spaced themselves out nicely this summer. But the too wet start played havoc on the farm fields and gardens. (Are we EVER happy with the weather ?) Hee.
Cute sneakpeak. Looking forward to seeing the rest. Hugs...

We have some clouds & cool weather, but no rain - I'm envious. Love your cowboy!

Your little flower bearing cowboy looks quite galant trying to hide the flowers behind his back. I'm looking forward to the upcoming release to get a gander at the rest of the images.

Now I have the Luke Bryan song "Rain Is a Good Thing" stuck in my head! NOT that that's a bad thing!
