The Pig and Me

Years ago there was a movie that

I just loved called the Egg and I,

in fact I should find that movie and watch it again,

because I remember a really cute farmhouse

owned by Fred MacMurray and Claudette Colbert

that I would love to see again. 

I am indeed showing my age now,

because this was a very old black and white movie

and only people my age would even remember

Fred MacMurray let alone Claudette Colbert. 

I think it also featured Ma and Pa Kettle in

their movie debut.

Check out the trailer

It was from a book written by

Betty MacDonald

Anyway that was just a random thought

and has nothing to do with this post,

other than my title reminded me

of that movie.

As for the The Pig and Me....

I love the Pig

aka the Pork

aka the Porkadillo

This morning Kevin got up bright and early to do

a few chores in the yard. 

The family was over

last night and we had a fun time swimming and eating.

The kids were joined by their cousins

and we had quite a few laughs.

(Kristi...I hope you are out

shopping for more little children today)

While Kevin was busily working I was still in bed,

but woke up

to the glorious smell of fresh brewed coffee. 

I got up,

grabbed 2 cups of coffee and headed to the yard.

Remember, it's the end of July and in July's past,

it's already hot, even by 7:00. 

Not this morning, it was overcast and cool. 

Kevin took one look at me walking out with coffee and said...

do you want a fire? 

So the pig, with open arms welcomed us for a morning in front of the fire.

I even had a light blanket over me. 

It was wonderful and  

I almost felt like I was back in the mountains.

I love the Pig... oh ya and

the guy who built me my fire.
