Day One Hundred Ninety 2012

Grandson Knox kicks back while Granny checks out Facebook. He’s fascinated by the computer, no matter what is on the screen.

It is no use to grumble and complain; It's just as cheap and easy to rejoice; When God sorts out the weather and sends rain - Why, rain's my choice.
~James Whitcomb Riley
What a beautiful sight after weeks without rain! Let’s give God the glory!

Day One Hundred Eighty Eight 2012

Splish Splash! Grandson Knox enjoyed some pool time this afternoon in the hundred degree heat. He had the best time kicking and splashing and trying to slide over the side of the pool. Too bad there wasn’t room for the rest of us.
Happy TGIF, everyone!

Day One Hundred Eighty Seven 2012

My Mae Pearl’s vanilla bean frozen yogurt would have been patriotic if only I had chosen blueberries instead of blackberries. In the end, the flavors are what mattered. It was totally delicious and refreshing on a hot summer day.

Day One Hundred Eighty Six 2012

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!
Celebrating Independence
Family, Food, Fun, Fireworks!

















What a fabulous Fourth! My family celebrated America’s birthday with our annual backyard get together. We enjoyed an awesome meal, homemade ice cream, some corn hole competition, and in spite of drought conditions, managed a brief fireworks display without setting the world on fire. I love my family and I love this country and I thank God every day that I get to live in the land of the free! Happy birthday, America!
