Oh my goodness, we had so much fun!!!
We decided C's husband was a natural at this. Totally looked Amish. And by the way, I've seen her blackmail picture of him. She could get BIG bucks.
Colleen is right about the community feel of it all. But until I get over hot flashes, I'm sticking with air conditioning. *g*
Rebecca, aka, Diann
OK, ladies, there's got to be a dispensation for AC, right? At OUR ages???? I am jealous of this Plain day. We have an Amish community 2.5 hours from KC (Jamesport, MO). We go there and visit the shops on the farms, but we don't actually KNOW any of the Amish on a friendship level. I would love to, though. And I want to ride in the buggy, especially if it passes any spots in the road where I can pick up a wifi signal....The four of you look irresistable!
My folks just found out that they will be having Amish neighbors, if they don't already. Just a hop skip and a field away.
I LOVE their homemade foods. I'm hoping my dad's extrovert nature will get him in the goods, 'cause I'd sure love to get my hands on some of their jams and preserves.
You and Di look cute, Colleen.
Hey Winter! Amish neighbors will be great. They're always willing to help other people. I just love my friends in LaGrange. Where do your parents live?
Katy, you could always get a battery operated fan. LOL
You're all ADORABLE.
Adorable, Julie? LOL Think we should convert? :-)
I'm so glad you and Di got to play...been praying for her! And you look wonderful in your picture...plain works for you gals!!
Colleen's right, Di looks wonderful. Is your hair longer, girlfriend?
Colleen, you looked adorable Plain.
The guys? Well ... uh ... hairy. LOL
But I recognized you all right away! And cracked up. :o)
And here I thought it would throw most of you and you wouldn't recognize us. LOL
Colleen,
My parents live in SE Iowa. There are a few Amish towns near them. As a farmer and carpenter, my dad interacts with them on a monthly basis.
Oh interesting, Winter! I think some of the Indiana Amish went to Iowa.
The first picture didn't load as fast so I only got to see the second one before I guessed. I knew it was you, C, but I admit the husbands and Diann threw me. LOL. I went back and looked and could see them right away, but at first I thought it was just you with your Amish friends. LOL.
P.S. Diann does look great. Glad you're out and about!
(Rachel and Rebecca )
You had me fooled.
I was like,
oh,Must be their friends, how did they get them to take a picture?
I did not think The Amish took picture's. LOL.
You all looked very cute. :)
Glad to see you Diann and that your out having fun again. :)
Hug's!!
Girls, I can't believe you recognized me right off. Sheesh, I'm disappointed. LOL
Thanks for the encouragement! It was great to be out and about again!
One thing I learned about the Amish experience is there's something to be said about wearing a bonnet. You don't have to worry if you're having a bad hair day. *g*
Well I was fooled at first! My very first thought was how did you get them to let you take their picture? Then I caught on.
Did you stay for the flea market on Tues? Of course, it is raining here today. Maybe not such a good day.
All of my neighbors are Amish. There are parts of their world I wish were in mine. Like the slowness of pace, taking time to visit with friends and family. But I like my electric world! They do use generators for somethings but AC is important on these miserable days. They have beautiful gardens! I like to walk down my road just to see how their gardens grow. Their horses are another fun thing! We have a horse farm across the street from us. I love watching the horses graze in the pasture. We visit with them. Kind of like having a pet without the work!
One last thing an Amish school is on the other side of us. We can hear the kids singing each morning during the fall. They also have several breaks in their day. There has to be something to their exercise! Our schools could use this idea.
Sorry my post is so long! This was right up my alley so to speak.
Oh Andrea, I should have posted something on the blog a few days before we went and maybe you could have popped over to the bookstore to say hello!
I recognized y'all right off! LOl Glad Di's outta quarantine. And uh, Di, did you get blackmail photos of C?
Don't answer that, Di!
Robin, shame on you. How could want to blackmail little ole me? LOL
It was so much fun having you all in my studio, you were so cool! Sarah (photo designs by Sarah)
