Sunny Friday!! Yippee!!





Good afternoon!! It's a beautiful, gorgeous, lovely spring day here in Michigan..finally after days of rain, dark skies, clouds, (you get the picture) it's sunny and wonderful outside!! 73 degrees...lots of sun and guess what else......cotton is floating around from the cottonwood trees!! They cause havoc with allergies but I'll put up with that to have such a nice day!!

Heading outside to my new swing in a few minutes...but thought I should stop by here and say hello first.

We have been working on putting a fence around our garden but the weather has definitely slowed up hubby's progress...but thinking things will move along now since the rain has let up...for a few days (hopefully)....

Our lilacs are out in full bloom and even with all the rain they are still beautiful....here's a couple photos to show them off!!






Hope you are all enjoying your Friday...looking forward to getting back here soon with news about more beautiful weather here in Southern Michigan!!

Happy Mother's Day!!


It's been a great day here! Michigan weather can be a challenge but today was a perfect Spring day!! Right around 70 degrees...lots of sunshine and a nice breeze!

Church was great this morning..had a wonderful guest speaker that had been with us all weekend for a seminar...then after church had a phone call from one of my sons...text messages from my daughters..then we met with my daughter Pam and her daughter and my son Tim and his wife Jennifer and her mom for supper around 6:00 this evening..great time!! After we got home I had another phone call from another son wishing me a Happy Mother's day..so now I have heard from or seen all 5 of my kids and that made it a perfect Mother's day!! Add to that a absolutely wonderful husband!! I am so blessed!!

Tomorrow I will post a couple pictures of the flowers I received..I love this time of year...now to get busy this next week in my flower beds..get plants for the porch boxes etc. Fun season!!

Pray you all had a wonderful day!! God bless!!
