This has been a resolution a long time coming. When the kids are out and about, it is hard to find them sometimes. I don't like to yell at the top of my lungs each time I need the children. We tried using walkie talkies, but they don't work properly out here, too hit or miss. Then I bought this cutey dinner bell to go out on the back porch. Savannah was the one that suggested I ring the bell when I needed them to come home. I didn't think the sound of the bell would carry very far, but I tried it... Success! Hopefully the sound of this bell is less obtrusive than my only other choice, grin. Although, the cats are terrified of it.Wednesday, August 27

what a perfect solution!!!
What a great idea! Be careful of what might come in the front door after you ring this bell..the donkeys and goats may want supper too! I can just see the kids taking off running toward the house after they hear the bell and the animals following behind them in hot pursuit!
ps-I need to send you pix of Savannah from girls' camp!
Your last post made me laugh so much. The bell is beautiful! I am really wanting to come for a visit. It sounds like so much fun out there.
This is how my mother called all of us kids (there were 8 of us)home for dinner...it brings back so many memories...you always knew when the Brimhalls (my maiden name)were having dinner! You will have to ask Alisha if she remembers this?
Haha...I love it!
