old barns


I consider myself very lucky to live in the beautiful state of Minnesota.  One thing we take for granted around here is barns... you see them everywhere.  I just love them... last year we had Hannah's picture taken by a turquoise barn...


could that color be any better?!
The county I live in has a project where they have added quilt blocks to a bunch of the barns.  They look just amazing.

While running an errand nearby, I stopped by the cutest little farmstand... called At the Farm in Waconia.  http://www.atthefarmwaconia.com/  If you live nearby, you just have to take a trip out there.




I love how their quilt block matches the yellow chairs, the chippy red paint... it's just perfect.



I left with a big bag of sweet corn and some local honey.  Delish.
This white barn is right down the road from my townhouse.



I pass this old cow sign every day... it makes me happy.  Have a wonderful weekend!
