Well it has been a little while since my last update and since we had a ball with the boys first summer visit so far I thought I would share and update too. I have added the boys flying a kite at the park above us. They thought you had to run to fly it and mom ( the kite flying expert) showed them how to stand still, and catch the wind under it. It was amazing how high they got them all by theirselves. They still had energy and they were hot so we took a dip with them. They are like fish!

Our three fish our first summer visit
We have been blessed with some awesome neighbors who also have a love for gardening. Miss Jonell has a gorgeous half a dozen rose bouqet ready and waiting to be placed in a vase. Below is a sweet little knock out rose with one of natures creatures mom had to snap since I can't stand the eight legged creature...LOL I love catching little things like that on film I think it's kind of neat.



Okay I know you have heard of people seeing pink elephants but have you ever seen a pink cow? we mom and I did on our way to Birmingham. We knew no one would believe us so we had to go back and take pictures. Sweet "P's" at pike road between Troy and Montgomery had dyed their namesake to draw attention. My doodlebug has another nickname, mammaw has called her sweet pea since before birth and her birth month flower is a sweet pea so everytime she has passed it she has ask to stop. They have a little deli, baked goods, hand dipped ice cream as well as some home made canned goodies. If you get a chance to stop and see them it is well worth the visit.


My sweet doodlebug has been at Upward Bound again this year since May 30th. We sure miss her through the week but it is such a good program, I praise the Lord for it.



Mom's beautiful seedless blackberries. This is the second year we have had them but the first year they grew fruit. they are not only gorgeous to look at but sweet and delicious as well. We are growing more each year and we are quite proud of them.



Until we meet again online or in person, may you be blessed!

My beautifu talented Doodlebug made not on the national honor society this year but she found out today that she made the Business and finance academy at school. God has truly blessed us with an angel!
Thank you Lord for all your blessings on me!
