Picture of the 5 of us

At short notice we knew Jackie was coming to Ohio from Albuquerque New Mexico for a family wedding. Jackie was good enough to take time from her busy weekend to eat lunch with us. Defintely would have been nice to spend more time but we had a good visit with the time we had. We are classmates & we all hope Jackie can make it back here in 2 years for our class reunion. Great seeing the girls for lunch.

Our Anniversary




Today was Dennis and my 38th wedding Anniversary. Wow !! Seems such along time but not really. We just decided what we wanted to do was just chill out at home. We had been on the go so much it just seemed a really good idea. Of course he had to go to work this afternoon so it did not last long. We both played on our computers and I had fixed him lunch with his favorite homemade bread I made him with bread machine. Tomorrow we are going to search for a new stove. Our stove decide to blow the computer digital stuff in it and would cost to much to fix so we decided to go out with the old and buy new. Repair man suggested to putting componates in would be a waste. Have to get finding one I like my oven. When you don't have it that is when you want to use it. That is it for now!!

We had a great time at the Pumpkin Run Nationals at Owensville Ohio fairgrounds near Cincinnati. We went with two other couple friends for the three day event. On our car show blog is only a few pictures. Of course Dennis took over 400 pictures so we have a lot to look at over the winter. This was our last car show for the season. We could not have asked for better weather it was hot and sunny. What a weekend!!!

Weekend

We had a good weekend. Saturday morning we went to antique mall in Pioneer to pick up a showcase we had bought Tuesday to put all Dennis die cast cars in to better display them. Our friends Connie and Warren was kind enough to help us get this home and the guys carried it to the basement. Sure glad they volunteered to helped us not sure how we was going to get it down there. Looks nice & be nicer once he gets all his things in it. Saturday afternoon we mowed yard and did a few things around here. Then we went to Angola to Pizza Hut for supper and Menard's. Sunday we did things around home and went to Williams County Fair in late afternoon. In evening watch couple movies and just relaxed. All & all a pretty good weekend at home. Need those now and then.Hope everyone had a good weekend to.

We Had Help

My last post I was saying our yard was not looking good. Yesterday Dennis mowed it and loose grass needed definitely picked up. Well today we MOWED AGAIN furrowed it and was going to let it dry and pick it up tomorrow. While I was raking around our neighbor Mike came over and picked the grass all up with his grass catcher. Dennis was at work so he is going to be so surprised. Our yard is wonderful once again thanks to MIKE!!!!!!!!!!!! Mike has no idea what this means to me I love looking out at my yard and the past week it was hard to enjoy the view. Now I just keep looking and in awe that it is all cleaned up. THANKS MIKE!!!!!!!!!!!! We have wonderful neighbors I would be lost without them.

Rain Rain Go Away


It has been a very wet week. Our yard looks the worse then it ever has the 20 years we have lived here. Dennis is out mowing now since I have had an injury on mower I slipped I am off the lawn mower. I am sure we are going to have to pick the grass up once he has mowed it once. In the past week from Sunday to Sunday we have accumulated 11.6 inches of rain. So it is going to take time to get this yard back to its beautiful self again. Well Since I am not helping with the lawn I could work on my flowers so hope everyone is keeping their lawns pretty we are going to try to get ours in better shape. Until next time. Pray that we get some sunny days this week!!!!

Hummingbirds


Hummingbirds were eating the food just outside patio window. It was raining and they hovered.


It was getting dark and have a shadow of hummingbird

Picture is blurry but I thought it was neat to watch them. I can be right up to window and watch them drink. Our cat Abby loves to watch them to. Abby makes a chirping noise when she gets excited and the birds get her going.

Good Weekend

We had a good weekend. After the busy weekend we had in Columbus last weekend we decided to stay close to home and get a few things done. Saturday morning Dennis put a new garage door opener on the pole barn because our old quit on us. It went well no big problems. I helped when he needed me but other than that I just did laundry & fixed lunch. Read on a book that I have borrowed from Susie setting on front porch just hanging out till it was time to get ready to go for supper with four of our friends. Norm & Patti and Connie & Warren. We six went to Angola and ate at Ruby Tuesdays supper was good. We came back to our house and showed them our pictures we took at the Good Guys car show. It was a good evening and as usual went way to fast. Sunday we got up and worked on the garden. I picked beans while he tilled the garden. I was so happy I got 6 quarts of beans out of the garden. The rain perked our garden up great. We were so afraid we would get nothing much out of it. We did see some cantelope developing so we are happy. I made up some pickled beets too. So it was a pretty productive day. Now we are going to relax the rest of the evening and watch some movies. Hope everyone had just as good a weekend.
