I love hydrangeas, they remind me of Mimi and Granddad and Mary Poppins![]()


My favorite boy is now going to go on to be a big fourth grader! School is out for the summer and what a summer we have planned!

If not running around outside, you can almost always find him on the computer looking up facts (mostly about cars) on Wikipedia…or making faces.


My sweet Grace adorns herself and her room with gardenias…it smells very lovely.



I love the below picture, not just because of the cute little face, but you can see the white patch on Grace’s eyelashes…



We love the pool…

Summer days are happy ones…

We also like the sprinklers…



but prefer to be back at the pool more…

Sometimes I let the kids take pics of me…so I can get pics of them. It works well with Grace, she especially is a little camera trigger happy! And do you like the way she made me pose?

Have a fabulous long holiday weekend!! We have some very fun plans, pictures next week![]()






Dawn - I’m sure Grace is thrilled to have Grant full-time too. Our kids love any form of water play… on the lake with the boat, beach, pools. There is a pool and pond on our original landscaping master plan but they have yet to come to fruition. Hopefully in the near future though…
