Day One Hundred Ninety Eight 2013

Little ladybug on my arm
you wear a heart as part of your charm
You joined me on this sunny day
just for a moment then you flew away.
~Author Unknown

I lifted my cup to take a sip of my drink at Taco Bell today and there was this ladybug, clinging to the cold, wet side. I figured it would eventually either fly away or drop into my food, so I nudged it onto the table where it crawled around in circles. Neil finally caught it on his finger and took it outside where it flew away. Ladybugs are supposed to be good for your garden and bring good luck. I’m lucky it didn’t end up in my chicken quesadilla. [Couldn’t resist adding that cute corny ladybug poem]

Look, Ma, I can turn right and left at the same time! This was Sunday at our church playground. Grandson Knox was showing off his driving skills. He and his mommy headed back home today. [He let his mom drive.] Miss you guys!

Monday Monday Afternoon With Knox






It was a beautiful afternoon. Grandson Knox braved the mosquitoes and spent some time jumping on the trampoline, blowing a few bubbles, and fishing in the watering can to see what he could catch [a very soggy leaf] ~ all of it fun. Except for the ‘skeeter  bites. [Hope your Monday did not bite]

Grandson Knox standing in the glow from a sundrenched stained glass window after worship service this morning. All the pretty colors got bleached out by the sunlight. The little kids love to play in these windows.

At Last

I Wanna Hold Your Hand

I’ve Got My Mind Set On You

My niece Evan married her long-time sweetheart Shaun this afternoon. They had a beautiful and simply sweet outdoor ceremony under blue sky and puffy white clouds with family and friends cheering them on. They’ve loved each other for a long time. They’re a good match. Wishing them a happily ever after.
