Outside time with Kyndall

Every single time Kyndall will get in grumpy's chair.  I do believe she gets a kick out of grumpy finding another chair to sit in while we are outside.  I am trying to get us outside more often. Kyndall and I would be perfectly fine in the house all day.  

Grumpy trying to ease Kyndall's mind about the lawn mower. She normally will not get anywhere near the big green beast.  Grumpy would love for her to make a circle or two with him.  All of the other grandchildren love to take a spin with grumpy.  Yes he is very safety cautious when he lets the grandchildren ride with him.  He doesn't use the blades.   

Kyndall is not happy that we put her on the big green monster.  Let me tell you she is pouting big time in this picture.

I sure love this little girl so very much!! 

 

Grilling Out Time!

Getting ready for Sunday Funday!  Love this watermelon table cloth.

Nothing like some steak and Kbob's

My favorite pork and beans. 

I always like spending time with our family.  Brody and Savannah came over with baby Lane.  Also our friend Jackie came and ate and visited with us.

Brody really enjoys cooking out with his dad.  If he had his way we would cook out every weekend. I really need to find some other summer sides to serve this summer.  Does anyone have any simple recipes they want to share with me?  I love the simple but tasty summer recipes. 

Do you spot the Pioneer Woman bowl?  I really want to buy all her items!! Am starting with what I can afford now and will work up to the bigger items.  I am going to get her pots and pans at some point.  I love her colors she puts on her kitchen items.  

Hope everyone has a great summer!! 

 

Kyndall's Fairy Garden

Kyndall has enjoyed putting together her fairy garden's.  She got a little dirty but we sure enjoyed our time together.  

I took her to the store so she could pick out her items to place in the containers. She really found some cute items. 

I have always wanted a Fairy Garden.  This was a perfect opportunity for me to have my fairy garden.  I was really impressed with how they turned out.  I really want to get my rock garden back in shape. I guess I will work on it little by little.   

 

Mr & Mrs Robinson

Mr and Mrs Jonathan Robinson  

We had been waiting for this day for ever.  Alisha was a beautiful bride. Jonathan is a handsome young man and a good Christian man as well.  Luther and I got to the Venue early.  Loved how everything turned out for the young couple.  The ceremony was held outside and was absolutely beautiful. So thankful the reception was held indoors where the air conditioner was on cool.  

  

Beautiful cake!

Loved the couples table

The view outside

I loved the way they decorated the stairway! My bad that I didn't get a picture of us in front of it. 

I so enjoyed this magical wedding day for Alisha and Jonathan!! 

 

Gone Fishing

The weather was nice today and so we decided to go fishing at Lake Taylor.  Sometimes I forget to stop and listen to the sounds that nature sings for us.  I actually closed my eyes and listened to the different sounds for about 5 minutes. It was nice to hear the different birds chirping, the frogs croaking and the bugs buzzing around. 

Oh my goodness I swear a snake was testing me.  It kept swimming in the water in front of me.  I’m terrified of snakes.  I told Mr. C. that the snake was waiting till I wasn’t paying attention so he could crawl up my leg.  That got a good chuckle out of him.  In fact he told me not to be so dramatic.  

 

Getting back to Nature (fishing day)

Sitting in my chair watching my pole. The wind is slightly blowing and the temperature is perfect on this beautiful Sunday. 

It is really peaceful today not many people at our local lake.  Lake Taylor is only a few miles from us. Watching the small waves has been good to my soul.  Watching the birds, bugs and snakes was interesting as well.  

My tackle box is the best!  I so need to go find some more pretty tackle.  I would prefer to have all pink and purple tackle but that just isn't possible.  I can tell my hubbie  has been helping himself to some of my items. Which I don't mind as I do not go fishing very often.  Not sure my annual fishing license is being used as much as it should.  I really thought we would go together more often.  

Today was a perfect day for us.  Sometimes just getting back to nature is exactly what one needs.  I know I certainly stay inside way too much.  Where as Luther enjoys being outside a lot. 

 

Alisha & Jonathan's wedding shower

Alisha and Jonathan's wedding shower was so much fun.  The played the The Newlywed game and opened up gifts.  It was coffee and donuts which was interesting to me.  This was the first shower that I have attended that was the donut themed.  They had a great shower.  So blessed to have these two in our lives.  Can't wait to watch them grow as a young married couple.  They truly balance out each other. You can see the love they have for each other.
