Thousand Words Thursday: Happenings at the Estate


Just a few pictures from The Henry Ford Estate, the former home of Henry Ford. The Peony's were beautiful and the picture just doesn't do justice. I love that shot of Will, he looks all grown up (sniff, sniff)

Does anyone have any idea what kind of bird that is? I have never seen a bird like this in Michigan.

Just a few days left to enter my Father's Day giveaway for either a hand stamped key chain or custom golf ball marker, enter HERE!! Happy Thursday friends!

I think will is thinking: "Good morning ladies, any friend of mommy's, is a friend of mine!!" :) no sure what the bird is Kristen? :(

The peony's do look beautiful and Will does look like a such a big boy in that picture. It is funny how certain outfits, facial expressions and posses can really make kids look older...and freak their mommy's out a little bit!

i grew up in Romeo and we had a peony garden like this that i loved as a child... especially as they were just getting ready to pop with the ants all over them... i think the original owners of our house who planted them modeled it after this estate... thanks for bringing back such fond memories.
