It has been a while since my last post. My flowers are growing and we have picked everything in our garden. The weather has turned hot and dry and we are doing fine. Through Gods blessings we are healthy and are keeping busy at our jobs and at home.

Painting house

We have been painting our house. We started a month ago and we are just about finished. As you can see I climbed out on the porch roof to paint the upstairs. It is Ok as long as you don't look down. We should be finished by this weekend. We hope.

surprise

Dan was sitting on the back porch talking with one of his dealers. Tiger was sitting under his chair. All at once Tiger started hissing and arching her back. So Dan got up to see what she was hissing at. He had a surprise at what was curled up behind his chair. We watched the snake for a little while and then Dan took care of him.

Drew and Riley

Drew and Riley are growing also. Drew is 5 and will start kindergarten August 7. Riley is now 3 and is trying to keep up with big brother.

Old friends

Here are some old friends that we visited recently. Joel and Danelle can you believe how big Rachael has gotten. She is now 14 years old and will be a freshman in high school. As you can see Criag and Elyse have their hands full. Mckenzie is now 11 years old and Garret will be 10 next month.

Happy Mother's Day

I wanted to say Happy Mother's Day to my Mom. I hope you had a wonderful day. I also wanted to say thank you for always being there for me. I have always felt your love and support for what I wanted to do. Over the years I have caught myself saying something to my children that you said to me and I am sure they will say to their children. I have tried to raise my children with the same values and love for the Lord that you raised me with. I love you and thank you for being the wonderful mother you are.
