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.
GOOD MORNING, LOVE, HUGS & BLESSINGS, Ms. Juanita, I pray YOU have a STUPIFYINGLY SENSATIONAL SATURDAY, and are having a SPLENDIFOROUS WEEKEND, my friend...
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 such a sweet friend, Juanita.
If I didn't know where you came from, If you had a different name, Or perhaps you were a different color, I would still love you the same. If you lived up in the sky, or maybe in a tree, If you could not laugh or even smile, If your eyes they could not see. If you could not walk upon your feet, If your fingers were your thumbs, If you could not sing a song so gay, I would still love you the same. If you were a little boy or Maybe someone else, If your legs they couldn't run and play, Nor could you hear nor speak your name, If you did not love me as I love you, I would still love you the same.
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.
GOOD MORNING, LOVE, HUGS & BLESSINGS, Ms. Juanita, I pray YOU have WHIMSICALLY WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY/HUMPDAY, and are having a WORTHWHILE WEEK, my friend...
