Hannah, Baby and this and that

We so enjoyed having Hannah and Chastity home with us for a week. It was a surprise for Tom--he had no clue! This was actually the first time Chastity has felt good when we've seen her so, it was a real treat to be able to connect with her. She managed to tighten the final loop on Papaws finger! The pink horse is a thrift store find-$4.00. A lady at the office keeps telling Tom he needs to get Chastity one of those $250.00 horses! When I saw this one, of course I snatched it up! It doesn't do anything but, Chastity doesn't know that! She actually liked it!! It's hard to believe she'll be 1 next month!
We do hope you all are enjoying your summer--Tom and I are.














I so enjoy the seasons of flowers! It's amazing to think how creative God was in choosing the colors--what a dull world if everything were black and white! Of course, if it were, we wouldn't know the difference, would we???
Our small garden is coming along as well as some things in containers. Thanks to our new "neighbors" who so graciously offered to plow up a garden spot for us this year. We were pretty settled on just some container gardening. We had this same family over a few weeks ago for a meal--there are 13 of them at home and 2 not at home! They are very nice people, truly seem genuine, and the children are interesting and well behaved.








Thankfully they don't make their way to the front porch all the time!

Haha, note my pup is not the one in the flowers! See, he is a good mannered little doggy.

It was great to see pictures of the family.

The puppies are sooooo cute! Of course, Chastity is quite a cutie too!

Good to see you guys (Hannah and baby, too) last week! I love flowers, as well, but am not too "green". I decided to just do red geraniums in pots this year, and ended up with a couple of other hanging baskets, too. We have a large area in which to plant decorative beds, but between 4 kids, a cat, and a dog, I can't keep feet from pattering through the beds and trashing the flowers! Decided it wasn't worth it this year...guess I'll have plenty of time for that when my grandkids are smashing my kids flowers! Ha!
