Photo Challenge: Reaching


Autumn can't resist hot dinner rolls (or bread of any kind!) and always likes to choose hers first.

One thing that has always driven me crazy about our home is that the dining room light wasn't centered. Verne and Collin fixed that for me last Saturday. They're such gems!


The kitties love to play with string; no matter that Chester is almost 8 years old and not really a kitty anymore.


Casper thinks it looks like fun, too.

Awww.. those kitty pictures are so sweet. I thought about using Carlow, but he's there at his house, and I'm now here at mine..
Good shots

I had to chuckle at your hubby on that stool. He can stand on it to reach the ceiling - I need it to reach the top of my fridge!!! LOL

Colin is seriously TALL! I love it! The kitties made me smile. I love all of them, Tracy.

Terri said...

Oops, meant Verne is seriously tall. Sorry about that!

I love love love the first one. I love dinner time. And you table is so charming!!! And the sight of any man fixing something (especially in the home) is a beautiful one indeed!

The kitty pictures are cute, but I love the first picture. It's so warm and inviting. Glad you got your dining room light properly placed. :)

We love bread around here too! I had to laugh, Tracy, we use canning jars for glasses, too!

The dining room ceiling medalion looks great. The wall color is really pretty - similar to a color I used in my short hallway.

Have a wonderful weekend.

That is EXACTLY how I am with bread too. In fact, Matt used to tease me when we went on dates (those long-bygone days of old) that I would request some more bread at the end of the meal just to take it home. (and yes, I did....but he didn't have to TEASE about it!!)

Liked your soup cistern (is that what they are called??)...I remember when you excitedly shared the news that you finally had one.

and I *LOVE* that moulding around the light in the dining room. ELEGANT!!!!

I really like the first picture. Looks like such a happy, homey dinner. Lovely!!!

Amanda said...

Nice photos! Those cats could easily pass for brothers lol. They look so alike in the 4th photo. They look like they keep each other amused.

I love bread too. Too much :P

The kitties look all tangled up. They must have had a great time.

Those rolls look amazing.

I love the first one! Great job!

The kitty pictures are adorable.

Who ever put the ceiling fan in our bedroom couldn't measure either. It's so close to the top closets that we can't open them while the fan is running. And they only put fans in 2 of the three bedrooms. Spring project is to put a fan in our daughter's room.

Glad you got yours centered.
Tell Autumns rolls are never safe around me either.LOL>
