Welcome to my 78th I like Thursday post. Thank you to LeeAnna of Not Afraid of Color for encouraging us each week to find and share things we like/love.
I have been cleaning up my flower garden pulling these big tall weeds called Amaranth and thistle. At one point this summer I had planted some marigolds and sweet peas. Well the chickens stomped them into the ground I thought. Well I was pleasantly surprised.
I went to get Chinese the other night and thought these pigs were cute. I guess they have them to celebrate it being the Year of the Pig.
Samantha occasionally sees things on a close out table and grabs them up.
This time it was a unicorn pet hat.
Obviously Lucy was not amused.
Bobbin is just too cute and always a willing model. LOL
My book of the week is the 5th book in the Braxton Campus Mysteries by James Cudney. I have enjoyed getting to know the characters.
Well I must run, I have a deadline of 5 pm on Thursday to turn in my challenge quilt and I am not quite done quilting, and ended up with a row of quilting that needs to be taken out and it is late. *Sigh*
Head over to LeeAnna's and check out the other I Like Posts at

ReplyDeleteLOL...I love Bobbin as a unicorn! Thanks for sharing your beautiful post on your Thursday likes. xo
ReplyDeleteCan we just comment on the fact that your house is magical enough for unicorns? I've not heard of that author... might need to check him out. I saw amaranth for the first time this year at the botanic gardens.
ReplyDeleteSnowing here now... LeeAnna
I love surprise flowers that show up where you least expect them! Cute unicorn hats, too. Looks like the perfect book for October! Good luck finishing up your challenge quilt today!
ReplyDeleteOMG, Colette!! Sweet Bobbin the unicorn! We haven't had a picture of Bobbin for a bit - and what a wonderful unicorn she makes. Yeah, Lucy wasn't buying in, was she?!! Love the little yellow marigold flowers - I'm glad they survived the girls' stomping. ~smile~ Roseanne
ReplyDeleteI think Lucy in the unicorn hat wins the photo of the week. Her expression is fabulous. And your flowers are so nice! I still have a couple of marigolds left, they look lonely but are still blooming!
ReplyDeletePfffft.OMG I spit out my tea with Lucy's expression. That is a keeper.lol
ReplyDeleteI hope you got your challenge quilt finished and turned in on time.
ReplyDeleteLOL - the look on Lucy's face! Goofy little gold pigs. What fun.
ReplyDeleteI don’t know why but I do get a kick out of animals wearing clothes. Bobbin is quite the model! Gardening is surprising and in such a pretty way.
ReplyDeleteLucy is so gorgeous in her Unicorn hat! Her face! And Bobbin even better!
ReplyDeleteLOL at Miss Samantha in the unicorn hat !!! She does not look amused :D Bobbin is such a cutie. Marigolds are one of my favorites this year. They are holding their own despite our weird weather. Have a great week and hope you get your challenge quilt done!!! Cheers!
ReplyDeleteLaughing at your unicorn models! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteI chuckled when I saw the pet hats! I have a few dresses for my cats and they run all over the house trying to get them off! Your flowers are extra pretty at this time of year. Such rich colors!
