Here are some of the beautiful flowers I have blooming right now.....just love daylily's! Should be out there "weeding" right now...weeds, weeds everywhere. Why do the weeds grow at an amazingly faster rate than the flowers?
Chrissy (my son's girlfriend) is being admitted tomorrow evening to be induced on Friday for the baby...so you'll know where I will be. There will be lots of pics to come. His name will be Johnathan Andrew, John for short which is a family name for us. At first she was going to spell it Jonathan, but felt John wouldn't work then. Alot of people think spelling it Johnathan is not correct, but I've seen plenty spelled that way......! My mom, Jonel (who is named after the family name) is estatic about having a grandson "named after her"! Oops, make that great grandma....I'm the grandma! Whoopee!

This is my favorite ever picture of my husband. I just love it. Who would know he's 58.....looks like a young stud!! LOL
And this would have to be be my second all-time fav pic of my husband. You don't catch him being silly like this too often.....at least in front of a camera!

A great time was had by all in Destin, Florida this year. We had wonderful weather, the ocean was beautiful (no oil) and great family time. No baby arrived while we were gone, which I was happy of. But we still have no baby......anyday now!

Goodbye Bike ~ For now.....

Well, this is a two-post day it seems.....! Tried riding my bike today for the first time since knee surgery. That is my "outside" bike. Didn't work. Everytime my left knee bent I went ooowwwww! Then started to fall off. Needless to say I parked it under the carport where it might stay until I give it away. Don't know if I'll ever be able to ride it again. Very frustrating since I was looking forward to possibly hitting some good bike trails with Ken this spring up near Grafton. Had high hopes! Those shattered today......I'll have to stay inside and ride my incumbant bike and look at the walls! Grrrrrr.........

Happy Mother's Day

The real religion of the world comes from women much more than from men - from mothers most of all, who carry the key of our souls in their bosoms. ~Oliver Wendell Holmes

Happy Mother's Day to the best mother in the world!

Destin, Here We Come


Now all I'm thinking of is I am gonna be in Destin a week from today.....sunshine and ocean, here I come! We are going with my mom, dad, sister and brother-in-law and it's going to be a very special time of sharing. While there we'll celebrate Mother's Day and my mom's 73rd birthday; since we are arriving later than usual this year. The last three years we've been in Florida on her actual birthday...this year plans changed because of a wedding scheduled this weekend.

So looking forward to a warm sunny week of shopping, sharing and spending time together on the beach covered with beautiful white sand looking out over the blue-green waters. I so dream of living near this beach.....! Hopefully that dream will be visualized in four years or so. I want to live out the rest of my life near what I consider to be one of God's greatest creations...that beautiful and awesome ocean!
