In My Garden ~


Just a few pictures
taken today in my gardens.
The sun is actually shining
though it is windy and quite chilly.
Overnight we had high winds
that caused damage to many trees,
but we are so fortunate
compared to so many other parts
of our country.
Please say a prayer for those
who suffered such devastation.



Jake's last swim class was yesterday.
I tried to get a good picture of him
in his Sponge Bob swim trunks.
Obviously, he was not cooperating!


Little boys can be such goofballs!

Tonight is hooking at the farm.
I hope to make some progress
on my proddy sheep rug.

Thank you so much stopping by
and I hope you will come again soon.
Pug hugs :)
Lauren

Fun watching them swim isn't it?
Durin my Swim class there are the little 3-6 year olds in the big pool and they are sooo cute.

Jake is just trying to look like Sponge Bob and I think that he's doing a great imitation in a cute way. Boys will be boys.

I'm so glad that you had very little damage from the wind. I just finished watching an arial video of the devastation left by the tornado in Alabama and it's unbelievable. There has been so much devastation with flood, mudslides, earthquakes, tornados and wild fires and nuclear disasters and war lately. I feel so sorry for the younger generation growing with all this happening. I'm keeping all those affected by these disasters in my prayers. Stay safe my friend. JB
