Betty's blog to see what Mr. Badger got to do! He's at Rabbit's door! SO cool!
Hello lovely Lily of the Valley! Aw, my sweet garden fairy neighbor has them in her garden and she shares. Yay!
I'm sorry I've been gone so long. I was busy enjoying my beautiful mother's company! And SHE also had the opportunity to enjoy the company of 5 of her grandchildren and (brace yourself!) 14 of her great grandchildren! Wow!
My niece lives in Boulder so we trucked up there for dinner, a humanities school fair, and a piano recital. It was fun, fun, fun!
She was also able to see Miss Bug's graduation from kindergarten! Adorable!
Aw, Millie Rose!
Finn and James! Good boys.
Here's my mom and our brood of grands. Kelli couldn't get her little namesake to let go of her, so Auntie Kelli is also in the pic!
Garden fairy neighbor has a glorious display of alum.
We enjoyed lots of grand visits! The kids were busy and happy for their great gran!
She was Birdie's "special person" at the homeschool tea!
James decided that GGJo is A-OKAY!
Christie and Jeff cooked us a lovely meal of planked salmon. Did you know that you can buy the cedar planks in the BBQ section of your grocery store?
Christie also made my favorite mustard potatoes. Mmmmmmm!
James is snuggling up to GGJo again! See? I DID make the lilacs into canvases. So pretty!
It snowed heaps on Mother's Day but we still drove up to hear our Brad preach. The heater was broken and it was FUH-REEZING in the church. My mom LOVED hearing Brad and seeing the church (and of course the kids!)
Our April (Brad's wife, our other sweet daughter-in-law) is the best knitter ever. Look at this pair of socks.
Aw, Birdie cuddling with GGJo!
Sam plopped down by GG to eat her hamburger.
She also helped herself to GG cuddles.
GGJo served at the tea party!
This is the lovely meal my niece made for us in Boulder. Scrumptious! I am now a fan of Trader Joe's. WE went today. They have such good frozen dishes (veg/grain) AND fresh foods, too.
My niece Amy's girls and GGJo, too!
Sam has joined a soccer team! Go, Sam, GO!
Thank you for sharing in all of our family joy! Here is a piece of Christie's specialty shortcake JUST for you!
Our little James turned ONE! We enjoyed watching him at his party.
I pray you have a lovely week, full of gardening and sunny walks! Oh, I MUST have Bill lift Sunshine (my yellow bicycle) off the garage ceiling hooks. It's time.
