gearing up for summer


Looks as though another busy summer is soon approaching. I love the summertime. I love working outside in the gardens, watching things grow. (okay, so more watching and less weeding would be great! Kinda like the pool, I want more swimming, scratch that, FLOATING and less vacuuming.)

The older I get the more I find that life is work! A bike ride to get ice cream used to be fun, now it's harder to get there and I have to exercise more just to get the ice cream off the hips! Making mud pies and cabbage rolls of mud and leaves used to be awesome! Now, there's the laundry and the floors to mop when the mud pies are done. Although it may be more work for me now, I wouldn't trade a bike ride and a pie fight with my family for anything!!

I think it was really thoughtful of the kids to wear such bright colors when the covered themselves in mud.
As we all know brights are the easiest to remove mud stains.

hi kam! just wanted to say hi and i miss you too although not as much as your husband for sure. I was thinking of you because Petey the parrot is sitting next to me eating out of a coconut and I thought kami would be upset that a bird was eating all the coconut she's supposed to eat :)

see you soon!!

Two days in a row visiting your blog with no new info. How sad.
