Saturday

It is a beautiful Saturday! The sun is shining and breezes are blowing. I mowed lawn this morning
with John's latest riding mower called Lawn King that he got from a neighbor for free. It was a mean mowin'
machine! When my sister came last weekend she brought me 2 of these cute little vase/tubes. She
made a special trip to Stockholm, WI to get a bunch of them. John has been faithfully bringing me little flowers
to put them.
I got back to work on the 3 wall hangings I started months ago. One is almost complete!
John has to work today--it was mandatory. His co-worker, Phil, is going to cook supper for the guys. He
grills for them.
I feel content and happy! Fresh air and creativity are good medicine!

They Grew Up

I sat in the back looking at 3 of my kids who are all grown up. I wonder if it's something
a mother gets over eventually or will I be looking at them when they're 50 and thinking
the same thing?

Wednesday

I keep trying to put pictures up but it's not working. Thot I'd try words only and se if tht works.

Back to the weekend....
Friday was spent lounging and eating. It was fun to cook for a big group. We went to Minnieska for fireworks and viewed them from Jami's yard. For a small town they had excellent fireworks!
On Saturday morning Tyler took us out on his new boat. It was a great way to start the day! Perfect temp. and smells and beautiful day . Matt waterskied and did well. Then we went on a canoe trip on the Root River. At night we had a campfire. Most fresh air I've had in one day for a long time. Sunday we went to church and then lunch at Red Lobster. Everyone left and I had a nap!
