We flipped the calendar page and it says June on the top! We are thinking all things summer now and the blooms in the kitchen are proving it!
The morning walks around the park paths are a favorite of mine! Each season is so pretty here!
Austin's got a few more baseball games left. He's really enjoyed his team and playing time! I love to see the team gather for prayer before game time!
Mike just keeps me smiling! I asked him to get my raised bed repaired so that I can plant my sunflower seeds in it! He smiled and said that he asked our neighbor Jake if he can rent a small part of the field right behind our house so the kids can still hit balls in the back yard and so that he can surprise me with a field of sunflowers and zinnias. Yesterday, he came into the driveway on a rented tractor from Esh Hardware so he can plow the field a little and then plant lots of seeds. I was laughing at him!
We planted four big packs of Mammoth Sunflower and one large pack of zinnias. We need more. Probably double that amount will be about right.
After he plowed, him and I spread the seeds.
And look here!!!! Because of a hard frost in April, all the orchards and fruit trees in our area have been hit hard and so many blooms froze. We were so looking forward to a lot of fresh peaches from our two trees this summer but when the spray man came to spray the trees, he said he's not going to spray because there's no fruit. It all froze. How sad!!!! How must it be for the big produce farmers that use this for income??? I was happy to see a few peaches hanging so it looks like they didn't all freeze! We will appreciate every single one this summer!
These poppy flowers are so aggressive and beautiful and totally make my day each summer!
And these white peony's are from my plants! I love these!
Hadassah wanted me to go along to the greenhouse to help her pick out some flowers! Gunnar was so fun!
He's not walking yet but climbed right into the bottom shelf of the cart!!!!
Summer foods .... BLT's coming up and strawberry shortcake!
Gunnar got to go along to Austin's game and he wanted his grandpa to hold him when he wasn't coaching third base!
June is here and school is out and we are ready for summer fun!!!!
