going, going, gone, kisses for grama, and reach for the sky

1 After a long wet day the sun finally made an appearance just in time for sundown. It shone down on the far side of the lake and gradually moved behind the mountain and it was cool once more.
2 The grandkidlets snuggled in with me for a bit when I stopped in for a visit this afternoon. They are in the perfect place for me to kiss the tops of their heads, repeatedly.
3 Tulips are such majestic yet simple flowers. I love how proud and tall they stand withstanding the winds and rain and how they seem to stretch even higher when the sun is out.

she said what?, getting together, and open wide

1  I wear a lot of dark colours, black, brown and lots of white so today I'm a pink plaid tunic. But I must look a little country I guess because the woman siting next to me looks up and says, "You look adorable!" I should wear colour more often!
2 A friend from a few years ago when I worked at the hospital has moved to the area as well. We get together for a coffee and visit and it's great to know she's doing so well now. Very proud of where she's come from.
3 Tulips love to be wide open to the sun in this heat but quickly close up once a cool breeze arrives.

get ready, flower power, and space to move

1 The trailer is picked up early this morning. I was in the shower and Mr P comes running in and says rather excitedly, "They're here. I need your help with the paperwork, so please hurry!" Thankfully I was finishing up so it didn't take long to get 'presentable'. Well, if you call wet hair tied in a bun, no makeup okay. Truth be told, I did take time to brush my teeth!
2 Spring is doing it's thing.
3 Mr P and I are both thrilled at how much space we feel we have now that the cargo trailer is outta here. We clean off the driveway and Install the large house number post, Mr P weed eats the yard, I plant two hanging baskets and clean up some others and we move the big jasmine to the front where it's shadier and put a huge honeysuckle (in a pot) on the back deck.
3a I'm too tired to take pictures so those will come tomorrow.
