Waterboy

I have a new gardener and  he is  CUU-OOOOOOT. He is very reasonably priced.  He wants to get paid in POPSICLES.

and, NO I will NOT hire him out.

And.....I'm back.

What I did in Utah...



I saw these two plays.





Ate here



Spent time with our friends and driver.

Saw a lot of this.

Went here ( on the hottest day of the year).

I almost melted...

The Hoover *#!@.

And I quite possibly ate toooo many of these. Glad to be home from our whirlwind trip to Ca, Nev. Arizona and Utah in 2 and a half days.

ST. GEORGE, UTAH

Leaving soon, be back soon.

  An outdoor theatre, more to come.

New suitsuit, I mean sprinkler suit.

Micah's new suit.  Sprinkler day at grammas.  I put his old swimsuit  on him and realized it was a size 18 months.   I ZOOMED to Target and he picked out Cars 2 Lightning McQueen suit.  ADoraBLE...  I then RACED home and put it on him.



The cuteness never ends.




He actually posed for me while I took these photos.



REALLY, there is NOTHIN cuter then a little boy tushie in a racecar suimsuit.



FINALLY, we ran through the sprinklers,  Yes, I said we, I however, will NOT post any pictures of me in a swimsuit,  because you would all have to make an appointment for pychotherapy..




Summer, sprinkler fun,  followed by a cherry popscicle.





Birthday Boy



Thirty three (that's right 33) years ago this sweet boy was born.  He was actually born on fathers day.



Such a blessing in my life.




I love you  !

Hello sunshine !



           This is what's been greeting me in the morning. My neighbors planted sunflowers in their backyard. When I open my bedroom window, this is what I see. They turn their sunny faces in the direction of my yard.  What a cheery greeting they give me.  They just make me SMILE.



Thanks Pete and Sandy for being such thoughtful neighbors.





The many shades of violet.

and they did.   In my yard.

Nature does not hurry yet everything is accomplished.

Sew what.

      This is what happens when the husband is gone for 12 days.  I stay up way to late and sew. I took a quilting class from a local quilt shop and learned to make these quilted table toppers.  I fear they have created a monster.  So much fun to make and very simple.   They do take some time, but so worth the investment.

Quilt #1



Quilt # 2

These can be made bigger by adding more rows of square.  Such cuteness.
