• The Month of May

  I haven't blogged for almost the whole month of May!  What have I been doing all that time?  For one thing, I got a new computer, and I have been learning to use it!  Getting pictures where they are suppose to be and finding them to post on a blog is quite a challenge still. 

  I have been working on some projects around the house - cleaning carpets, organizing drawers and closets, and I spent several days cleaning my screened in porch.  It has been too hot to use it too much, but I do like to go out in the mornings sometimes with my coffee and knit.

                                             

                                             

   

  I bought some flowers and herbs to put in pots on my deck -

                                             

                                             

                                             

                                             

   

  I got the quilts that I made for my grandchildren all back from the machine quilter, and I put the bindings on -

  John's is a dinosaur pattern -

                                              

  Megan's has cute little cupcakes, paper dolls outfits, and other sweet pictures on it -

                                              

  Charlie's is big enough for his twin bed, and it has construction vehicles and signs on it.  This is part of the front -

                                              

  And the back has this panel in the center -

                                              

  Jim held it up for me here to get the whole back -

                                              

  Memorial Day weekend started out busy.  Some out of town friends who used to live here, Sherrie and Bob, were back in town for a visit.  We had them come for dinner on that Saturday night, and the kids came over, Suzanne came home, and we invited some other friends to see them.

  Aunt Suzanne and Megan -

                                              

  Aunt Suzanne came with gifts for the kids, so Megan was quite a happy girl!

                                             

                                             

  John was just playing -

                                             

  He loved it that Uncle Roger was giving him some iced tea to drink!

                                            

  Charlie was playing with Chad -

                                           

  Here are some other random pictures of the evening!

  Lynna and Sherrie -

                                           

                                           

  Here is one with Pam in it -

                                           

  And here is Jim -

                                           

  Some of the guys chatting -

                                           

  And you can see Rachel in the corner of that picture.  Rachel is Lynna and Roger's daughter.  She goes to Bridgewater College.  She left today for a missions trip to Bulgaria!

  So, that was our fun month of May!
