I was very blessed on Mother's Day to enjoy the company of most of my children and grandchildren.
Here are a few pics for your enjoyment.
 |
| Can you smell the lilacs? They sure smell good... |
 |
| We patched the roof of the cornzebo with rubber roofing tape. I'm glad we positioned the hole to the back of the house. |
 |
| Since we placed the cornzebo in an existing flower bed, I still needed to remove the brick edging. |
 |
| We got the roof cap back up, not exactly perfect, but good for now.. |
 |
| My iris are starting to bloom. |
 |
| My hubby and son-in-law Joe making me a found object or scrap metal sculpture for my garden for Mother's Day. |
 |
| My New Longhorn |
 |
| This is his new home (at least for now) Any suggestions for names? |
 |
| Rachel made me this cute wallhanging for Mother's Day |
 |
| My grandkids gave me the gift of their laughter |
 |
| My daughter Angie made this crow |
 |
| Kimberly got me some plants and floor tile for my bathroom |
 |
| Since today was nice, and I have a lot of vacation days to use, I stayed home today and worked in my yard. Our front yard has zero curb appeal. We have 30' tall white pines that hide the view except from this angle. It has looked like an abandoned house for far too long. Today I bought some yellow twig dogwood and planted around the front. I need it to be zero to minimal maintenance and look better. So, once small step towards curb appeal on an extreme budget. |

| You just never know what treasures you'll find when digging around an old house. I found these shards of old crocks. |
