Lunchtime Special
Karen and I went for lunch the other day. We went to a little cafe/coffe shop about 15 minutes drive away from our house. It was on a farm out in the country and a lovely place. Especially on a nice day, and it WAS a nice day.
Karen had a plate of chips (how unusual) and a can of coke, I had a delicious bowl of lentil soup, a roll and a lovely cup of tea - really hit the spot. We both really enjoyed it.
At another table there were 4 ladies with a wee girl of about 1 year old. She was a wee cracker - highly entertaining. I don't think her mum found it entertaining though. She was putting everything into her mouth, or onto the floor. Glasses of drinks, cutlery, food you name it - nothing was safe. And when things were taken off her she shouted. Mum was continuously apologising to everyone, I felt quite sorry for her. Then I looked across at Karen - my goodness she was that age once (even worse thought - so was I eeek).
Time passes way to quickly.

These were some of the pictures I took while out on our drive. I would love to live in the country. I don't think Karen would mind me telling you but it is her ambition to own horses and a farm in the country, much like the one we had our lunch at. I hope she does realise her ambition then I can go and help her.

apart from the noisy child!!
Chips and coke, well that girl would definitely suit my son!
Photos are great.
I live in the country (have no horses) but my neighbours do. The country can be quite noisy with farm machinery, animal sounds and tractors up and down the road everyday!
Wonder would Emma like to be woken each morning by a cock a doodle oooh at silly o'clock!!!
Hope her dreams come true.

Wonderful dreams. I hope they come true!
I go out to dinner with my wife and baby at 4 p.m. now, so as not to intrude on the dating, irritable couples.
So my wife and I dine with retirees who think the baby's cute and tell us of their kids and grandkids and great-grandkids while they marvel at the pace of time's winged chariot.
The food is good, especially when we can throw peanuts on the floor.
Great pictures, they remind me of my sister!
Big hugs from Indiana

I like the pics and I hope your daughter realizes her dream.
Sounds like a lovely lunch. I, too, hope your Karen has her horse farm one day.
Little babies can be a handful! Gosh, bringing up a child is no easy task! How did you mothers do it? I ask my mom that all the time :)
