Red flower

I was in the gorcery store the other day and saw this flower in a box! I picked it up and thought it would grow to be quite nice and then looked at the price on it 70cents!!! Yes I could not believe it. Wish I would have picked up a few more!

Garden Flowers

We always have such wonderful flowers in the front yard! I do not know what the secrect is except they hardly ever get attention! For some reason though this year none of our hanging baskets did to well. I don't know if it's because it got over 90 degrees in the middle of august and then has not come down on the temperature during the day since!

Just 10 days late!

Happy Birthday Brendan I hope you had a very special day!

                                                            We went and rented this 4 seat bike for
                                                             an hour fun fun!

                                             

9/11 Not Forgotten

It is hard to belive that yes it has been 10 years. It seems like it happend sooner but yet in the same sense so long ago. I woke up this morning with a slight bit of saddness. I also woke up this morning thankful for freedom. Thankful for the brave men and women who defend it every day.

                                                             I had 92 of these little flags

Garden Harvest!

The garden has been very abundant this year! We have had absolutely no trouble with the zucchini and have had so many tomatoes. The zucchini seriously never got any attention! It got watered maybe once a week and never fertilized. The first few pictures are from last sunday in August and the rest were from yesterday. I have never seen so much garden zucchini! It does make very good bread and muffins though!

                                                              I made a total of 9!!

That one was over a foot long!

Disney World part 2!

Day two of Disney we went to Epcot. That was not my favorite because it was so hot and there is allot of walking around to do. I think that if you went early in the day it would be alright (we went after 2pm!) The main attractions to Epcot are all of the different "worlds". There is a taste of every country there kind of neat to see the different cultures and how things are so different every where. Another neat thing about Epcot was they had all of these topiarys that were shaped into different things. Some were grown with flowers and others with just plants!

Summer tote bag!

I finally got around to making a bag for myself! I had it cut out way back in July but I just could never find the time to sit down and do it! Slowly over the past few weeks mixed in with all of the custom bags I finally got it done! I really like, I used Amy butler fabric and it happens to be the same fabric used in the pattern picture! I also put a snap on it so that is will stay closed.

                                                                 Stitching up close!

Disney World part 1

We went to Disney world back in may and had tons of fun! This was the first time that we had been to Disney world we have been to Disney land before. Very small in size comparison. We were there for 4 days plus 2 days of flying. Each day we were there we went to a different park and we still missed somethings. It was fairly hot 90+ degrees every day then you add in the humidity and yes it feels even hotter. I don't think that anyone even noticed! Maybe it was because we all had so much fun. That humidity is definitely different then the high desert!
