Back to Normal

After our lovely visit with Munchie's family, life began to return to normal.   Appointments and errands abounded.  Poppa and Kev-Inn took some time out from the whirlwind to attend to spring chores.  Here they are getting a start on Great-Grandma Grace's big backyard flower bed.

It's quite an undertaking.  This is what it looked like after they had spent some time planning.....

.....and then a lot of time toiling with forks and pulling weeds and quack grass by hand (notice the work gloves)......

.....and when the afternoon was waning into evening, they had taken out a lot of weeds and remnants of last year's growth.....

....yessir, yessir - six bags full!  Poppa will be returning to straighten up the rows and make the edges nice and crisp again.....but for that day they were finished and we all went out for supper.

Later that evening we got a phone call from Mommie...she was having babysitting problems and wondered if she could bring Munchie to our house.........hmmmm.......let me think about that!  Whaddya think we said?

I finished some socks for Auntie Denise from the yarn she chose when she was visiting us in Florida.  They looked like this.

And, as usual, I will close with the picture of the day!  I am pleased to share this addition to the abandoned series with you.  As you all know, I love this series and without further ado, here is our newest example!

And this is Auntie Colleen's commentary:
"Weeeeeeeee! I love this new shot for the Abandoned Series. We never set up the shots. We take 'em as we find 'em and this is exactly how Shaun found these four cups. And yes, he moved carefully and made sure not to breathe too heavily. "
