Architecture Plus & TBS Construction, thank you both for your comments. It’s been a lot of work and I’m proud of the way it’s turning out!! It helps to know the PROS approve of the job too! Thanks again!!

Flo, which picture, the donkeys? I love them!!! ❤️❤️

Very nice!!

Tammy - agree with Greenfish..."great design and great looks go hand in hand". You all have Gorgeous eyes!!! I think Flo means to use the three sister pic as your profile.

Your farmhouse turned out beautiful! Best wishes for making many happy family memories in the years ahead!

Thank you Frosted!! Mine were about swole shut that day from all the tree pollen!! It’s been thick down here!! I have major allergies to hard woods and that’s all we have out there!! Ha. I know you can’t wait to see your precious daughter & granddaughter!! What blessings!! Threepets, thank you too!! We’re looking forward to many memories at the farm!! Here’s a picture my husband took today

So great & so comfy cozy! U did a nice job!

Great job! It's unrecognizable!

Dear Beautiful Tammy...I recently turned 59 and if I could look even a third as good as you I'd be estastic. You look like you're in your early 40's. I look like I'm in my ....well, fifty nines. LOL. You have great genes.

Great pic your husband took today. The landscaping looking lush. I hope you enjoy good health at the farmhouse this summer. Of course I am still jealous of your lakehome too but in a good but happy for you way!

When I moved into my small town home I had an old white donkey living in a pasture behind my patio but sellers sold and he's gone. Miss him so much! I'd feed him carrots,. He was really old & hope he's okay.

Tammy, you and your sisters are so beautiful. I honestly couldn't tell which one was the oldest until you told us. Is the sister on the left of the picture an actress or model? I swear I've seen her somewhere before but I can't figure out where!

Mon, thank you for you comment.

Happyleg & Eurolux, thank you so much!!

Frosted, I know you have got to be beautiful!!! I haven’t seen you but your daughter and granddaughter got their gorgeousness from YOU I’m sure!!!! You are beautiful in your soul too!!! That’s what is most important!!! I sure the donkey is ok too. That would be so sad!! I want to get some at the farm but until we get where I can be there everyday to take care of them we can’t. I have to do that myself. Animals are like my children and I wouldn’t trust anyone else to do it!! Haha. Threepets, unless you live in the Atlanta area or hung out at Mexico Beach in the eighties, I don’t know if you would know my sister. She lives up there and is a mother of 4 so don’t venture out too much!! She also homeschools all her children. We’re blessed when we get time together right now cos she stays busy with them!! But when they get grown, we’re gonna tear up the town!! Haha

Tammy. That’s a beautiful pic your hubby took of the farmhouse. I see plenty of parking area. . . should be able to accommodate all us girls for a weekend. LOL. Frosted and Tammy, Here’s an old saying . . . beauty is as beauty does. Here’s to two beautiful gals.

Sounds good to me Seajaygerns & make that THREE beautiful girls!! You are a beauty too my friend!! I have been so blessed by you & all the ladies in our common threads on HOUZZ. Who says you have to look into each other’s eyes to create a bound? We are proof that is just not true!!! I’m ready when y’all are for a girls weekend!!

LOL I've definitely never met her. Now I'm going to drive myself crazy figuring out which actress she reminds me of! If I figure it out, I'll let you know!

Well I better make sure my passports in order. Wouldn't want to miss this get together. Beautiful pic uour hubby took today!!

Haha threepets!! That’s funny!!! She is a star in my eyes for sure!! I’ll tell her someone thinks she looks like a movie star!!! Her head will be so BIG!!! Haha Thank you for the compliments!!

Tami don’t you live in the states? I thought you did.. I guess I’m wrong! Anyway, get it ready cos we need to make this happen!!

What a transformation! Excellent job

Thank you Pearl remodeling!!

Tammy, hoping you are feeling better. I had brunch with my friend I mentioned to you and she is doing well also. That outdoor picture of the farm looks as inviting as the inside. All three of you girls are beauties. I am so happy that you have one another. Not sure if I mentioned my sweet daddy was raised in Valdosta and he had a brother in Lyons. Oh my, did we have a ball visiting my grandparents and his brother and family. His brother owned the only theater in town. He would send us bags of Vidalia onions every year. Enjoy the farm and take good care of yourself.

Tagan, so glad your friend is doing well!! And thank you for your kind comments!! We could be kin!!! My great grandmother and grandmother ran a boarding house in Valdosta called Jones Boarding House and my father graduated from Valdosta High School!!! Small world isn’t it! What’s your family’s name? I’ll see if Daddy may know them. He used to have to pay his mother( my grandmother) for his room and board there. She was a real stickler for heavens sake!! Not a very loving woman but we loved her just the same. Haha

She sounds like a very strong woman and probably added to the success of her children. I am much older than you all. My Daddy passed at age 89, 5 yrs. ago. The last name was Yarbrough. I have such wonderful memories of GA. My daddy attended Emory University and was drafted.

Tammy your sister does look like an actress that is in several Hallmark movies! Maybe that's who you're thinking about Threepets! All 3 of you are beautiful Tammy.

Thank you tsbnelson!! We could sure write some hallmark movies with our life events!! Haha When we tell people our story they will often say, y’all need to write a book!!!! Haha

Wow, Tammy! Your house reno is amazing! Such an inspiration....

BTW, your sister reminds me a bit of actress Jennifer Esposito from NCIS and Blue Bloods.

Thank you so much Melinda!! I watch Blue Bloods so I’ll have to check it out. Haven’t thought about that

Actually, she left that program a while back...moved on to NCIS. She used to be Danny Reagan's investigative partner. Her character's name was Jackie.

Oh ok. I remember her now. Before Diaz.

I am curious about one element. In your early photos, there was a tree trunk as a support post. Did you keep it? Use it somehow? It was quite interesting as I recall.

Yes, that's the one!

Flo, we did keep it. It was from a Cypress tree on the property. It wasn’t structural. They just had it in the middle of the room for some reason. We redone all the trusses and joists so it’s very sound now. We are making a coat/hat rack out of that tree. It was used as a hat rack before. But we’re refinishing it and putting a stone base on it so it won’t fall over. I’ll post a picture of it when we’re finished with it!!

Tagan, I’m sorry for your loss. Your father sounds like a very smart and good man. I’m going with Daddy to the doctor tomorrow and I’ll ask him if he knew him or anyone in the Yarbrough family. Daddy is 75 so a little younger but he may have known him still.

Oh that is such a good story and to maintain that cypress trunk in that way is fantastic! Another thing you might want to do, if you haven't already. Get a nice leather bound Journal type book for "guests" to write of their experience at the Farmhouse! A great aunt of mine had one of these and every time we visited (roughly once a year because she lived 8 hours from our home) me and my sisters wrote a poem to put in the "Guest Book". We laughed our sides off for years with those entries! Keeps memories alive and we still remember those times at Aunt Lena's! I could tell you some Aunt Lena stories! She was one strong lady.

I would have liked to have met Aunt Lena Flo! She sounds like a very fun Aunt!!! And thank you for the suggestion!! I will sure do that!! We will have lots of people staying out there, family & friends so that would be good to have. A good addition to the farm house for sure!! Thanks again!!

You are welcome. Believe me that will be a family treasure! I was thinking about your farmhouse the other day and I also imagined a "bunkhouse" on the property! With indoor plumbing (I'm not that country!) for those gang family events! So fun!

Haha! Flo, great minds!!!! We built a little well house and made it big enough to put a set of bunk beds in for the hard tails that come out!! Ha ha. We are gonna have to wait til we get Jeff’s shop built though cos we’re storing things in it right now. But they’ll have to use the woods or the bathroom in the house. We didn’t put a bathroom in it. We have 3 in the farmhouse so no problem.

Haha! We always have had a "connection"! So funny. Just glad you are having fun and making a wonderful "family outpost!" Enjoy.

I hope you get a good report at the doctor. My Daddy had a wonderful life but he never recovered from breaking his hip. It was a blessing when her passed. Thank you for your kind words.

Yes we have Flo!! And thank you for always being so sincere & kind!! You’re an amazing woman! Tagan, I sure hate that. The same thing happened to my father in law. He had cancer too so he had a terrible last year. Thank you too for always being so kind!!

Hey Tammy darlin’, is a hard tail the same as a “hard ass”? I know about those. May just be semantics between GA and SC. LOL. The guest book idea is so great. We had them on our boats and it is so much fun to go back and read about all of our adventures on the water. It also helps to settle many a friendly argument when we don’t remember events the same way. Haha! Hope your Daddy has a good result with the doc tomorrow.

Haha!! Yes Seajaygerns they are one in the same!!!! Haha. You are so sweet and I also have a strong felt connection to you! Thank you for the well wishes tomorrow for Daddy. I hope they can find out soon what’s going on. And I want y’all to all write in that book!!

Oh, I forgot to mention that I was at a restaurant on the Island and your light fixtures over the table were in the restaurant. They looked awesome. Perfect for the farmhouse vibe.

That’s cool Seajaygerns! I like them. They’re wood and you can’t really tell in the photo but they’re painted really neat!! Have some gold on them.

Praying for your Daddy Tammy that he has good test results & healing! Excited to see the hat/coat tree. What a great idea. I think my brother would like something like that in their lake home guest house. My best friend in Colorado keeps a guest book in their mountain home and are actually on their 2nd one and they love reading them over and over.

Frosted, thank you so much! We are doing more tests, checking a few more things and waiting for blood tests to be done again on the 25th so I’m going to remain positive. I’m excited about the tree rack. I think it’s gonna be good!! I bet your brothers Place is beautiful Frosted!! I love Colorado!!!

Tammy it sounds very positive for your father and sending prayers for him for good news for the final tests.

Look forward to seeing your tree rack. :)

Thank you Wmsimons!! I’m praying hard for that.
