Rain and Sprouts

Sending the boys off

for the last round of STAAR

testing today.  They are prepared

and completely ready.  We have

no worries here.

Lazy Bums!



I love this sign!

It hangs above my desk

as a good reminder.

Sometimes I am way too

hard on myself.

Already have some tomatoes

on one of my plants.

Some very tiny ones ~ but they are there!

It was well into the summer

last year when I started seeing

some blooms.

We have had a couple of

thunderstorms here lately.

I LOVE a good thunderstorm!

KC sent me this pic from his

job site.  It's not snow...

It's hail.



 

My flowers seeds have

mostly all sprouted.

Fingers are still crossed

that they grow into beautiful flowers.

I am still sticking to my

decision of not buying

any plants this summer.

Ok, well maybe I did

buy that hydrangea.

But it was so pretty!

How could I not!?!

 



We have lots of company in our

bird mansion.  There are baby sparrows

on the top floor and baby squirrels

on the middle floor.  The squirrels

coming and going drive the

dogs nuts!

 

We are so ready for summer

it's not even funny!

We are spending lots of

evenings outside.

 



Kade officially turned 14

this week.  There are no

words.  No words!

I can't believe the boys

are growing so fast.

The rain all day yesterday had

the dogs ready for some

sunshine!
