It was a busy first week of school. I assumed I’d have some free time, but that worked out for only one day. Did get a lot of canning done, though, with the help of my son. We processed Concord grapes into 40+ pints of jelly and 32 quarts of canned juice. And he and […]
After a week of church camp and a trip to Seattle, my husband and daughter are home again. They had a good time visiting our son and his wife. They did a lot of touristy things, including visiting the Space Needle. But I’m glad they’re home. DD starts high school tomorrow and we’ll try to […]
We had out-of-state company visiting Friday and Saturday and enjoyed catching up on family news with them. After they left, DH and I canned the last of the peaches. I need to wash all the jars today, take off the rings, write the year on the lids, and put the jars in boxes for transportation […]
The twins stopped by this afternoon. We had a fun hour or so before Daddy came back to take them home again. The first question they always ask is, “Where’s Pa?” Pa was at work, so we took a phone picture to send to him. Don’t you think those faces would make Pa come running […]
I headed to my Dad’s last Saturday for a family reunion. Five of the siblings from his family were there. Another brother was unable to come due to an event he had to attend, and another sister is winding up a five-week world tour with her son, so was unable to come. My dad is […]
This past week DH put my cubbies on the wall in our bedroom. They came out of an old post office a long time ago. My mom had them and I always loved them. After she passed away last December, we went through her things and this is one of the lovelies I got to […]

We spent the last half of last week staying inside as much as possible. We had several days in a row of temps over 100, up to 108 one day. We did get .14 of an inch of rain last night, the first in a long time. But not enough to make a difference. We’re […]
Father’s Day was a good one. We celebrated Father’s Day at home on Friday evening, as the girls were planning to be gone Saturday and we were visiting my Dad on Sunday. Here is Snow White rolling pie crust for Pa’s Father’s Day raspberry and peach pie. She said, “I am NNNNNOOOT making such a […]
More and more daylilies are blooming each day. We plan to have another plant sale this Wednesday from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Stop by if you’re in the neighborhood. Or check out the available daylilies at this link ahead of time and send a list of ones you’d like. We’ll dig and have them […]
