Happy Flag Day

She loves being on stage.

A very fun evening, so blessed we could be there.

Resurrected, A Simple Woman's Daybook

 Happy Monday!  

 I made a post on My Simple Woman's Daybook page.  I was shocked to see that I haven't written a post on there since 2013!! Where does time go?!  I am thinking of doing this every Monday. 

 I hope you will take a peek.

Thankful ~healing, grandchildren & sod

 Dan is doing well; the incision is healing nicely.  He still has restrictions for about three more weeks. If you missed my post on his ICD surgery, here is the link.  Very thankful. 💙

Last week, our daughter in law, Emily's friend had a small gathering, a Sprinkle for baby girl due in a couple of weeks. It was very nice, a lovely meal, dessert and presents for sweet baby!  I am standing behind Emily in this photo. Our grandsons, Finn and Harrison are in front of Emily. The boys can't wait for baby sister to arrive! I asked Finn, who is 5 years old, if he will be helping take care of the baby and he told me yes!!😀 I proceeded to ask if he would be changing diapers. 😂😄 Of course I was joking, but he took me seriously and told me boys don't change diapers! The look on his face was priceless!! 😅 He was appalled!! 😂 So thankful for grandchildren and the joy they bring. 💚

Things are progressing with our landscaping, sod. We haven't had a proper yard with grass since the fire and rebuilding.  If all goes well and the weather cooperates, we will have sod down by the middle of next week!!! Our landscaping company, Cutting Edge is awesome, we are thankful for them and all of their hard work.

I am posting this late on Thursday but hope to make another post sometime tomorrow.
