Monday afternoon

Hi all! I can't believe its been a week since I blogged. This summer is flying by too fast.

I spent some time outside this afternoon, trying to pull some weeds out of my herbs and flowers. So many things are yellowing due to all the rain we've had. Surely we are in for a drying out 'spell'!

My cherry tomato plants actually have three little tomatoes on them despite the lack of sunshine. I'm hoping they will start producing more now that Mr. Sun has made his return. I've never grown tomatoes in pots before, so I'm not sure what sort of 'harvest' to expect.

The lilies pictured above are from my mom's yard. This is the first year that they have done so well for her. She has them in a lot of different colors. I only have the old fashioned day lilies in my yard. A lot of people don't like them, but they are extremely hardy and make great 'fillers'!

Hope you are all having a great day.

Monday Morning

Good morning to you all! I am off for the day--dh has a chiropractor appointment and there is some random grocery shopping to do as well.

Things have been super busy around here. We put one daughter on a plane last Thursday (an all day event!) and she is busy in a four week writing course out on the west coast. I picked up our younger daughter on Saturday and she is how home for seven weeks.

Yesterday, we attended an after church birthday party for our pastor and his wife. She is turning 80 today and he will be 81 later this week. We sure love this couple and hope to spend many more birthdays with them!

Hope you are all having a great summer and getting to do lots of fun activities. We plan to work some 'fun' in our busy schedule sometime soon.

Have a great day.

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!!!!

I hope you all have a great day with your friends and family. I'm busy making potato salad and getting a last visit in with my daughter before she heads out of town tomorrow.

Don't forget to pray for all our soldiers that are serving!

Love ya,

Good Morning

Hello friends! I know I've not been around much these past two weeks. Things are just busy, busy around here. My oldest daughter is leaving in a few days to take some classes and a couple of days later our youngest is coming home for several weeks, so we've been spending a lot of time getting some extra things done.

I hope you are all having a good summer and things are going well for you. It is still wet, wet, wet around here. This must be the wettest summer we've had in years! I know some of you are ultra-dry and I do feel for you. We've been there for the past couple of years and are very thankful that we are finally getting some moisture in here.

I will try to get around and 'visit' with a lot of you sometime today!

All of you have a great July 4th!
