Mom's house and flower box




Mom sure has taste when it comes to her gardens, flowers and decorating. I just love the way she redid this entire house a few years ago. It was an ugly brown and had been a home for adults with disabilities. It was built with handicap features, but had no style. After my dad passed away 7 years ago, mom had a rough time living out in the country so far from family and friends. It was hard to leave her home in the country, with all the pretty gardens there, and all the work that mom and dad put into their home. She bought this house close to town, down the street from church, friends, and the hospital being right around the corner. She had the house remodeled before she moved in, a garage built, and her decorating touches added. It really is nice. Mom since has since remarried now for 1 1/2 years. She and Archie are very happy, have alot in common, and he's great for always helping--very handy.
