Happy Monday Friends!
And to my U.S. friends happy Memorial Day. I hope you've been having a nice one and having a fun extended weekend. I'm thinking today especially about all of our military that gave their lives for our country and our freedoms...and for all of those military folks and their families working and sacrificing currently. I thank them and ask that God bless them all.
We've had a great weekend so far! Some relatives came in from Green Bay and we had a gathering over here Saturday. And it was gorgeous here yesterday and I got some nice lazy time in the sun. Today is gray and chances of rain - but I'm going to go pick up some more of my flowers because it's supposed to be pretty nice this week so I'd like to finally get to planting!

On Saturday we got everything mowed and cleaned up for company and got the fire table going to sit around later:
I made a mixed berry pie for the occasion 😋

On Saturday we got everything mowed and cleaned up for company and got the fire table going to sit around later:
wild daffodils in the woods next to our yard
wild pansies among the rocks in Annie's garden
I made a mixed berry pie for the occasion 😋
we visited and then played games around the fire pit
I have a special Uncle Don - he's mentally challenged - and Annie was doing all kinds of filters on him and cracking him up! 😃
