A Golden Day

 Mother's Day began out on the patio.  It was a beautiful morning that I enjoyed before the really warm weather descended.  By afternoon we had  92 F or 34 C eh...but at one point in the afternoon the car said it was 94 F ...anyways it was really warm for the first part of May. 

Jen and Sadie arrived just before dark the night before Mother's Day. 

Golden Morning.



Sadie busy collecting sticks in the yard.  She was very interested in all the smells in our yard, especially where the bear lounged around the other night.  Yes we have a steel sculpture of a small bear in the old flower bed. 

After playing ball and a swim in the lake!  

Jen helped me do some things around the house...stuff where I have to crawl up a step stool to clean.  She crawls up a step stool better than I do.

We went to our favorite Mexican place for a delicious lunch.   It was a wonderful day spent with Jen and Sadie!  (Andy is at the World's Vex Tournament in Dallas...and we missed him)

  3. Sadie must love exploring at your house. So many new wildlife smells. How nice that Jen will come and help with those chores.

  5. I bet Sadie loved being in the country. It’s double trouble climbing because sometimes “head swimming” starts once you’ve climbed up there. 🧗

  10. How fun to spend Mother's Day with Jen and Sadie. Lots of help from Jen and Sadie looks like she had a blast exploring "out in the country". We're supposed to hit the 90's this week too. We've had the A/C running for almost a week during the day but at night it's been cool enough and low humidity so we could open the windows. I dread when we have to have things shut up all of the time. The birds sound so happy in the mornings right now.
    Blessings and hugs,
    Betsy

  16. It's a great thing to have someone who can climb your stepstool for you! My friend's children and grandchildren spent Mother's Day spreading all her mulch. Another great idea!

    So glad to hear that you had a great Mother's Day. I did too. Glad it hasn't gotten that hot here. Yikes. Getting cold again in about four days.
