Where has the summer gone?

A Walk in my Garden

I hope you are all doing well and staying cool....this post is going to be short and simple.  Our county fair is soon upon our family so my time is limited.  I want to share some of my yard and flower garden pictures of this summer.  We have been blessed with some wonderful rains, so everything is still green and growing well.  I will keep you all posted on how our "fair" week is going.  I love summer for this special week.  I hope you enjoy my pictures and that it makes you feel like we are together as you look at them...I know I love my yard and am thankful for all the pretty colors!

Happy 4th of July!

Good Morning Peeps & Happy 4th of July.  I love this holiday for the meer fact that we have family time and enjoy the outdoors, fireworks, great food, spending time together and most of all reflect on what this day means to us!  We have plans to bar-b-que out and and then go to our town parade and fireworks display.  I love to see all the yards lined with flags and alot of folks wearing their patriotic colors.  I hope whatever you do today please be safe and enjoy your loved ones and friends.

Join in the my new "Topic of the Week"

Happy Flag Day Peeps~  Its been a few weeks since I blogged.  Summer has kept me busy with working through this month and all the activities with my kiddos.  I love this time of year though.  No one is sick and the kids keep busy at home.  Our county fair is 1 month away and so that keeps the kids busy with getting their projects done.  I am going to have a summer giveaway starting next week..I will post pictures of what it will be by this weekend. I am also going to start something fun with my blog....and I am hoping you will join in.  I want to have a "Topic of the Week."  With that I will have a topic that I want your opinion on and it will be light hearted and exciting to see who reads my blog and actually posts a comment back to me.  So for the first time of this the "Topic" is going to be "Summer Time."  I want you to share what Summer Time means to you and your family.  I am anxious to read what all of you do with this great time of the year.  I hope you all have a fabulous day!

Happy Memorial Weekend!

Good Morning friends~
Can you believe it is Memorial Day weekend already?  Where has May gone?  Its always a good time to reflect on our loved ones and to pay tribute to the men and women who fight everyday for our freedom!  We are hanging around the house today...enjoying no where to go...isn't that funny that we appreciate those simple things!  I am having a garage sale with a friend of mine in 2 weeks so I actually have plenty to do to get ready for that.  So what are your plans for this long weekend?  Its starting to rain here, which we have had so much rain in the past couple weeks that we need to dry out and have warm sunny days!
I hope whatever you are doing you are spending it with loved ones and enjoying the "family" time.

A Sunny Monday!

Good Morning Friends~
I sure hope you all had a wonderful weekend!  It was a gloomy and cool one
here, but as we woke up this morning the sun was shinning and the birds were
chirping!  We had numerous graduations to attend and then our 18th wedding
anniversary was on Saturday...so it was nice to spend some time togther!
My kids have 1 day left of school..needless to say that they are so excited and
ready to have a "BREAK"!  I work at my school through June and have July off,
which will be a good thing with our kids busy with 4-H at our county fair!  I hope
that each of you moms had a special Mother's Day...it is a nice thing to have that
day off and relax a little!
I hope you have a great week...I know mine with fly by...but that is ok as I love when
I can be home with my family.

Hello Peeps...its been a few weeks since I posted anything.

Its been such gorgeous weather here, sunny and 70 today.
I have all my pots ready to go and garden tilled, so I feel good about
getting out there and planting away!  I can't write alot as I am pressed

enjoying the weather where you are.  I do ask that you leave me a comment
