Happy 4th of July!

We are off to the lake !!!! yay! I am really looking forward to it....Have a happy 4th of July!

Summertime...

Yes! It is finally here...so I thought I would share some photos of our summer plantings....I bought more flowers today, that is it. I am done. Yeah right. Enjoy! Have a great weekend! keep cool....

Happy Father's day...

My dad. What a character.Honestly.He could drive us nuts. But bottom line we always knew he loved his family and was extremely proud of us...he might not of told us this, but we always heard about it through his friends , he loved to brag about us, only if we weren't in ear shot...didn't want us to get big heads. On this father's day it is comforting to know he is sharing it with my Mom but I still wish he were here so I could give him another new shirt , that of course he wouldn't wear..Hold your loved ones tight each and every day and have a lovely Father's day!

Miss Addi and cousins

She looks kinda sad in these pictures...a long week. She is getting teeth. She is happiest when eating chips! I love her outfit...her great aunt Kathy made it! so cute! Have a good weekend everyone!

How I am spending my weekend...

We loaded up the Jeep and hit the road! off to the family cabin...I will be spending a lot of time in this chair enjoying the view. We bought new bikes and we are going to hit the bike trail near our cabin , it is only about ten miles long, and it is so pretty! I planted a few flowers this morning ...my husband cut a hole out of this old bow back chair and a I plunked a pretty impatient plant inside, it added the perfect color to our cozy cabin.It is sure nice to get away! we needed this! I hope your weekend is a peaceful one!

Tomorrow...

Tomorrow at 3:30 we will be saying good bye to our sweet kitty...she has been with us fifteen years. She is very sick. These kind of good bye's are hard... We will miss her sweet purrrrr......and her gentle way in dealing with our nieces ...I caught Miss Addi one day picking her up by her back legs and trying to carry her. The girls love her so...they are very attached. what do I say?

Summery Sunday

Today was beautiful...82 degrees and summer is in the air! After doing a little shopping (yay! we bought a couple bikes!) we spent the afternoon out in the screen porch reading the paper and blogging! I love my new laptop...especially relaxing with in on my screen porch. A great invention.
