lol... your so funny! Love the pot family you have living in your yard. I'm glad your friend & hubby are coming for a visit. I guess you can "show & tell" them when they get here huh? lol

Love your Potty Potters! They remind me of a programme on TV when I was VERY little - Bill and Ben the Flowerpot Men. They used to say things like "flobalob"!!!

Have a wonderful time when your friends come and visit. Jennie (also in Wales!)

Fridays are a joy to start with you Betty! I love your Show and Tell each week. The Potters look like wonderful quiet 'neighbors' to have in your garden. Or do they drive you potty? LOL!

I am so happy for you that Marion and John are coming for a visit. I have the great fun to have 3 of my online friends (1 from US and 2 from England) coming here to stay with me for a week. My mother is coming along too. It is great fun to actually meet an online friend. Isn't it glorious that computers can bring us these friendships? I am otherwise not a fan of all the modern things but love this aspect of it.

Sorry I am not around much but we are working really hard in our house and it is hard for me as I have some chronic illnesses that limit me. I hope to post a few photos of the living room today on the blog to show the colors.

By the way, I wish Marion a very happy belated birthday!

Hugs ~
Heidi

I love the Potter family. Never seen anything like that. And I too was in Crud land...but I am seeing the road out, finally!

How cute is that? The Potter Family...such a darling idea.

My S n T is shared. If you haven't dropped by, I sure hope you can stop and say "Howdy Do!".

Happy Weekend to you and yours, Betty.

Where's Harry? Just kidding! I couldn't help myself! I've never seen so many clay pots before! Did you buy these or make them?

I love your show and tell for today but have to ask. Are all those pots your's?

How nice that your online friend is coming for a visit. You'll have to be sure to take pictures to share with us.

Betty, love the Potter family. I don't get to visit often, but I do like the things you post.

Now, could I borrow you tips that you posted on the 19th for my craft group. They are awesome and I have tried some of them and they really do work. I had never heard of the safety pin for static cling, so will have to try that one. Hugs, Pat

Barbara said...

Reminds me of the Flowerpot Men. A children's TV programme when mine were small.

Cathy said...

Betty,

Your Potter family is awesome. I love them! I hope you don't mind if I use your idea to make a couple Potters of my own this spring. I think it would be fun.

How wonderful that Marion and John will be coming for a visit. I do hope the Lord is willing. I have met a dear friend of mine that I met online. We visited her in Arkansas in 2005. I love her and we have so much in common.

Blessings,
Mary
