Atlantic

I got up to pick some flowers for Gail and Laurie.  We had planned to leave little early so we could go to SS, but they didn't have it.  It was a nice time to visit more with the Atlantic EF church,  Jame's mom Amy sister Heidi and her husband, Larry,  Nice service.  Gail fixed s lunch and after people were done visiting we headed there.  Bruce was leaving, he was in charge of a golf outing that they were both playing in at 12:50.  Gail visited a while before she had to go.  From there Jensens were headed to Ames to be with Phillips family.  These are pictures I shared with Missy.  

home

Lincoln joined me or I joined him as we took a look around the yard.  We went on an adventure, he gave me directions for his game.  we explored in the garden, trying a few herbs and veggies,  We looked at several types of flowers.  I came in for more coffee and I took a sister call as Karen was spending time with Lincoln.Denny fixed us breakfast on the patio.  I rode with Missy and kids to IG.  She and Luke ran 6 miles, we watched the littles at the kiwanis park.  At home Missy packed and headed to Omaha to get Evan and Phillip who were flying in from California.   I put together another red, white and blue vases.   Denny and I took naps and then went into to Goldsmiths for some of Lukes' yummy tacos.   The mama cat had EIGHT kittens we are trying to catch and tame.  Uffda!!

L&K visit

 It doesn't get any better than playing pickleball with my daughter.  YES!!! So fun.  We went into IG at 7:30 and played until 9:15 when I dropped Missy off at Laura's and I did a few errands.  We dropped off flowers at Carol's and headed home.  Missy heading into IG around 11 to visit with Remer, get a hair cut and have Anabel take her drier's permit test!!! YES!! she passed.  At home I made a red, white and blue vase for church.  We put together food for tonight when L&K are going to spend the night.  I made a collage for Tom Webb's military service.  At 5 we went to Joel's graduation party.  Then home to visit with Luke's as they spent the night.  Lincoln slept in G'pa's closet.  The mamma at has EIGHT babies that are staying under our deck and hissing and snarling when we come outside.  We'd love to tame a couple of them .... We'll see. 

Watered. so it will rain tomorrow.

 1/2 teaspoon pf NyQuil helped me sleep last night.   Devo and walk outside with my coffee.  My calla lily has 11 blooms.  I used the sprinkler on the glowers and the clay garden.  I got the CSA pretty straightened up.  Missy worked on class all day 7-5.  Anabel was at Sophi's til 3 ish then napped.  I made a red, white and blue vast with 4 bunches of flowers.  Brooks helped Denny clean the grove with the bobcat and then went with Boyles to King's Point.  Kristin and Missy visited on the porch.  

Friendship Thoughts:  1.  If a friendship lasts longer than 7 years Physiologists say it will last a lifetime  2.Never mind losing a friend because a real one can never be lost.  3. Friendship is not about who you spend the most time with, it's about who you have the best time with.  4. A strong friendship doesn't need daily conversation and doesn't always need togetherness. 5. Best friends are people who make your problem their problem, just so you don't have to go through is alone.  6. A true friend is someone who sees pain in your eyes while everyone else believes the smile one your face.  

I am so blessed by God to have great friends.  

Happy Birthday Kane!!!!!

Happy Birthday, Kane,  We love you very much.  We pray that you will be a strong witness for Jesus.  Have a great day!!!!!

Up for devo.   I remembered we left the pickup in IG yesterday, so I woke Denny and he rode in with me before pikleball.  I came home and Luann and I put some flower together for Joel' graduation party.  We had about 30 minutes, so she could go and coffee with Jen B.  Uffda!!  I finished up the 2 bigger vases.  We were around all day.  Well, I guess I did go see Dr. Veltri about my shoulder.  He is signing me up for some Physical Therapy.  At night Missy showed us Nepal pictures.
