I just finished Animal Farm again this summer. I had forgotten how good it is. The last time I read it was about 22 years ago, the age my son is who read it with me. The first time I read it I wasn't into politics at all and really didn't get it, it was just a good story, this time was different. With Stephen (my son) reading it at the same time, and him really into politics, I got a lot more out of it. I would recommend that everyone read this book and think how it applies today. It is also avalible on tape or cd. enjoy!Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12460888235929415057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4066379113416874485.post-60132809119258245132008-10-13T09:24:00.000-06:002008-10-13T09:24:00.000-06:00those are so cute!those are so cute!JT42https://www.blogger.com/profile/00295572942949559660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4066379113416874485.post-55396066915184791332008-10-13T09:16:00.000-06:002008-10-13T09:16:00.000-06:00What wonderful cottages...I love all of them!What wonderful cottages...I love all of them!Sherrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17947050490192912888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4066379113416874485.post-22025873939484947342008-10-13T09:11:00.000-06:002008-10-13T09:11:00.000-06:00very fun blog party, first one I've been to.

I know I'm feeling a little sappy saying that but it is so true. It is so amazing to see what everyone has done with their cottages. I can't tell you how happy it makes me to see an idea go from that to all these beautiful little unique homes! It is so precious. I love the snow, the for sale signs even, the windows that look like panes of glass, the cute whimisical people inside and the wreathes. The fabric of your cottages and your trim are all soooo incredibly cute. And the little documentary about the neighborhood so sweet - even those that are having a hard time. You've done such a wonderful job. I can't believe all this. Congrats! This open house is a total success!!!! It makes me want to buy one of your for sale cottages. Just lovely Melissa. I'm very proud. I'm so glad you joined our exchange.Nanette Merrillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05734358126338038553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4066379113416874485.post-61338218691838292652008-10-13T08:54:00.000-06:002008-10-13T08:54:00.000-06:00Great tour of the cottages, very inspiring.Great tour of the cottages, very inspiring.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08776600970535540800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4066379113416874485.post-14064559689885451912008-10-13T08:53:00.000-06:002008-10-13T08:53:00.000-06:00They are all so cute.
