Mornin', Glory!

My sweet "baby" girl proudly brought home a plant that she started from a seed at school. It was just a little tike in an eight ounce styrofoam cup & a handful of soil the first time I laid eyes on it. She said it was a "Grandpa Ott" morning glory. I planted it out back near a piece of lattice and watered it when I watered everything else. Daddy helped from time to time by placing the new little tendrils on the lattice work to help give it a "leg up". And here it is today...

She's so proud of her Morning Glory!

Glad you were able to visit today!

Happy Labor Day!

We hope you enjoy the day whether you get to rest from your labor or have to work anyway.

Because of threatening thunderstorms, we did our grilling yesterday. Burgers, wings, steak, corn on the cob, baked potatoes and watermelon were on the menu. Today we will truly be able to rest from our labor!

How will you enjoy your Labor Day?

Sometimes Only a Cookie Will Do...

Dollface

This past Mother's Day, I adopted a new furry baby. It had been two years since we lost a sweet, faithful dog that we had had for thirteen years. I took it hard. And no matter how many times Ari asked if we could pleeeease get another dog...I just wasn't ready. The time wasn't right. But then one day, when I least expected it, (sorta like the day the Grinch's heart unexpectedly warmed and grew)...I was ready. We began looking. Our search didn't take very long when...

we fell in love...

with this face...

this little Dollface.
