Here are Mary and Aunt Shari helping Riley take her first JUMP off the side of the pool. She thoroughly enjoyed the water, as did everybody when the temperature soared up into the 90s.
Well, Justin and family have gone back home. The house is very quiet. Murphy seems a little sad that Penny, their puppy, has gone away. He played so nicely with her. He was very patient when she tried to drag him across the room by his tail and when she climbed all over his head.
Since Riley's day care provider has the day off we are spending quality time together. I have put a king size down comforter on the floor in a pile and she is throwing herself on top of it.
I think she would love a child size bean bag chair but I remember when they were the fad and my boys had them and sure enough the sides split and little bits of whatever it was they used to stuff if poured and floated all over the family room.
I'll wait to buy her one when Mary has her own apartment.
Mary accidentally broke one of our side lamps in the downstairs bathroom, this morning.
I didn't ask how. I mean they have been there for 6 years or so and never gotten broken.
I just told her it was ok and that when she had her own apartment I would be happy to come over and break things for her. (just kidding)
Number one son and Zeus got the window ac installed in the studio. YAYAYAYAY Most of the time if there is a breeze I will get it coming through one of the windows. Those 90 degree temperatures discourage any activity in the studio and that's not good.

My flowers are all blooming a head of time, it seems. All this warm weather we have had. I made a little collage of what I had taken so far this spring. If you click on the picture you can see a bigger picture. Enjoy the colors!

Amazing flowers! great idea to use the shop vac. At this point we're still battling the caterpillars but soon they'll start trying to clump in the trees.
ReplyDeleteThanks Deborah. I expected more damage from the tent caterpillars but I think the birds eat them as soon as they come out of the "tent". :)Bea
ReplyDeleteOh lovely flowers, I spied a Judas Tree in flower too. Is it yours?
ReplyDeleteI laughed at Zeus hoovering up caterpillars!
We have those orange flowers/weeds too. I quite like them but they make sort of dandelion clock seeds and I'm sure all of them turn into plants!!
