THANK YOU BLAKE...

My morning picks...a few daisies, some yarrow, a variety of brown-eyed susans, and of course my beautiful blue vase that Blake brought home from his mission to Poland...thank you Blake...
Yup, pretty much the perfect summer day... Joni, thank you for the darling addition to my garden...I love it!
The flowers won't last forever...but I'm sure enjoying them while they are here! Now, I'm off to other things...namely, spraying the house down and washing all my windows...have a wonderful and blessed day!

WHIDBY ISLAND


We decided to spend Memorial Day weekend biking on Whidby Island...so glad Mikell was here for the weekend and we could also meet up with Sheena and Blake! It was pouring on our way to Seattle, but as soon as we boarded the ferry the clouds broke and it was pretty much sunny the whole day! This picture was taken while we were going across on the ferry...



We stopped and had lunch in a little town called Langley. The food was great and we talked a guy sweeping his sidewalk into taking our picture, then we headed back so we could get Mikell on her flight back home...it was a perfect day and a perfect birthday! We loved spending time with you!
