Mowed yard this morning! Visited with Kyle Kid! Visited with Gloria (sunnysmile4u) in Canada via Alexa (like FaceTime). And I just can't decide which graphic to send to you... so pick the one you like best.
Now time for Grilled Cheese and Cherry Pie! Then I'll ready for a while until temperature and humidity go down!
Where does the time go? Half the year is almost gone! And here I am to share my Blessings with you again. I know you are grabbing some!
Last Friday I drove an hour to a mall in Frisco just to see my girls and to spend some quality time with my precious DIL, Evelyn. Nicole # 4 in gold top and Michelle # 6 in flowered top. After lunch at the CheeseCake Factory, they all went off in their own groups and I went with Evelyn to return the 2 dresses that Nicole didn't keep.
I am the luckiest girl in the world to have such an AWESOME husband. That sly grin turns into a beautiful smile and the most wonderful laugh!
Thank you for prayers for Kyle Kid, George! He called earlier today and is home from the hospital after the aFib episode. I looked for his picture from several years ago where he won an award from the school but haven't found it yet. Besides, I thought this was a great picture of how much fun he had as a crossing guard. The newspaper went to the school and took a bunch of pictures of him for a special story they did. Please continue to keep him in your prayers as he will find out about continuing the radiation treatments and the chemo pill he is taking that is affecting his vision which is why he isn't on The Hill very much right now.
Good Morning, hope you are doing well. We have had such beautiful weather all week and now that the weekend is here it has cooled down and the rain is back. Figures that the weather would turn lousy since many are wanting to enjoy some Memorial Day festivities and camping trips for the long weekend. Anyway, hope you enjoy your weekend and have a blessed and safe Memorial Day.. Take care, debijo
Of course the work week is nice and now the weekend not so much. That's how it goes sometimes. Was a nice Memorial day here. In the 80's. I cannot believe I did not hear any fireworks tonite. I heard a couple last night. They always do them in my area. Strange.... Oh well, it's a welcome change for once lol. Hope you had a very nice weekend and Memorial Day. Happy Tuesday tomorrow :) Big hugs, Jackie
Just want to say "Thank you for your sacrifice and service!" to all, especially those that gave their life. Many people do things everyday that affect us in one way or another and they don't even realize it. And thanks to all those in other countries that support our Memorial Day. All of them have family and friends that have served.
Quick update on Kyle Kid... I talked to George on the phone just a bit ago. He is still in the hospital because of the AFib episode. But he sounded much stronger than he did last week. Thanks for your prayers!

It is a long weekend for a reason. Please remember what it is all about. Talk about it to your kids, to everyone.
I am so excited for Derrick to now have his new best friend and service dog. If you don't have a charity, please consider donating often to Patriot Paws located in Rockwall, Texas who help Veterans everywhere with service dogs. It is a wonderful organization.
Derrick and Bill are best friends. They ride the laid back bicycles and compete in lots of Veteran races over many miles, often taking more than a day.
As Derrick and Bill were riding away from our house, I realized I forgot to take a picture. Really??? Both of them are in that picture.
Please remember to say "Thank you for your Service and Sacrifice.
Are you ready to celebrate Memorial Day weekend? What a sacrifice so many families have given for each of us. I hope you have your Red, White & Blue on and are sharing your smile with everyone!
I awoke to such beautiful colors in the sky. I had to hurry to catch the rays before the colors disappeared. The cooler temperatures seem to make such a difference.
I even went out to the front today to get a different view of God's painting. I noticed a limb on the tree near the mailbox was broken at the base of the tree because of all our high winds.
So a combination of the cooler temperatures and a broken limb lead to trimming the tallest tree in our yard. We hate to have to duck when cutting the yard on the riding mower.
As we keep cutting off the lower limbs, we have to keep using a taller ladder. Glad our grands keep growing taller so they can still reach a limb to climb the trees. It is always nice to have tall friends and family too. Thanks for being my long time friend, Debi.
I know it is after NooN but what a good morning we had. First was last night, rain was predicted for us the last 3 days and lots of areas around DFW got 3" or more of rain before we even got one drop. But after 10 pm the rain started and we ended up with just over 1". I don't have to water today and my buckets are full of runoff rain.
Yes, this morning I have a big smile on my face. Texas Longhorns baseball won the first game of the Big 12 Playoff. Now if we can just keep up the great pitching and batting! And tomorrow the Texas Longhorns girls softball start Regional Playoffs as the boys will have another game too.
Of course I am also kind of sad today. It is Nicole's last day of middle school. This afternoon she will be a High Schooler. Oh no! However, we are so proud of her and her sister this year for all their awards and achievements.
