Happy Birthday Guys

What are the chances that your son will have a son born on his birthday?  I don't know the answer but that is what happened and this year that day fell on Mother's Day!  Big blessing day for me!  Wishing Cory and Scott the best birthdays ever!  I love you guys!

Happy Mother's Day to All

Remembering my Mother, Ruth Irene this Mother's day, 1917 to 1997.  She grew up during the depression era and lost her Mother at a young age.  Our home was always neat, clean and stylishly decorated for the times.  She loved fashion.  She worked for many years as the assistant buyer for Miriam's Town Shop and loved working in the store.  She also sewed dresses for me that rivaled what was in the stores.  She also worked in a bank and loved math.  I dare anyone to out "figure" her!  She loved her grandsons dearly and loved to dress them up.  She never got to meet her five great grand children but I know she would have been so proud of them.  Her favorite flowers were roses.  I always think of her when the roses in my garden are blooming.  I love you Mom and you are not forgotten.    

Knock Outs

Just planted five three gallon size Knock Out roses. Super disease resistant, bloom like crazy from spring until fall. These pictures were taken after the early morning severe thunderstorm yesterday, still looking great today!

Hanging out with the Triple S's

Hangin out with this crowd always keeps me on my toes! One thing for sure, balls never go out of style! Love you guys!

Happy Birthday Boyd Patrick

Boyd had a super big day. First to the park for a party with friends and family then back home to open presents and play with new stuff. So much fun for all of us.

Happy Birthday to my Girlfriends!
