Been a While

I know I haven't been on here in a while. I've been sorting through a lot of things in my head, and enjoying the sudden beginning of summer in the past three days. This past weekend we had a remembrance party for the life of my Grandfather. The majority of the family was there. I also got to see several family friends whom I had not seen in a while. We played outdoor yard games, and everyone took a shot of tequila during the song "Tequila" in memory of my Grandfather, because that was his favorite song. I think he would have loved the party and been happy with the turnout.
Saturday night Garrett and I went to his mom's cabin and were able to just enjoy the lake and relax. It was a great escape from the everyday craziness.

I still need to tackle the rest of the weeds in the yard, but I'm happily surprised at some of the gorgeous flowers coming up yet... I have Lillie's, and Peonies currently, they are beautiful. My vine is still showing beautiful purple flowers and then I have another vine on the wood fence on the side of the yard that has pink and orange flowers growing all over it. Really our yard has become quite beautiful.

Last week I had a bit of a scare, we thought we may have a poisonous/deadly plant growing in our front yard, I'm pretty sure that the leaves are wrong though. That was a bit scary.

I recommend that everyone get out and enjoy the weather because summer will go fast. If anyone is interested in making a trip here to do a Valley Fair weekend, let me know, I think that would be fun!
