Mini Vacations & Gardening



We visited friends this past weekend. We had a blast. It was great hanging out. The kids played hard! Thanks for having us A & N! :)

We brought our Garmin Nuvi along to help direct us, and I must say that thing was worth the $95 I spent. I hear you can get one with Snoop as the voice. I wish I had known that when I was shopping for one! Imagine being in a big city and having Snoop help you get around. There is no way you could be stressed. LOL!

We came back early Sunday and found 18 zucchinis! We were only gone 3 days, and none of them were big when we left! I wish we had come home to some tomatoes, but I will settle for zucchini! We have a weird fungus attacking the tomatoes, so Kevin sprayed them down with a recipe we found online. It worked wonders last year, so hopefully we'll survive this year too. My daylillies are in full bloom too. They are looking lovely.

Kevin goes back to work tomorrow. We loved having him for a couple extra days. Thankfully he still has a couple weeks vacation left. It always seems to go by so quickly.

Have a great week!

We loved having you!

Your lillies and zucchini look great. I still don't have any zucchini big enough to eat, but my lillies have decided to bloom, too, and it is so nice to have flowers around.

All that hard work to put in your garden is really paying off. Good luck with the tomatoes. Love the new blog layout. That quote from Mother Teresa (one of my favorite people of all time) is a great one.
