{March is well under way}

February days are now gone and March has officially kicked in.   I finally purchased a new monthly focus board.  We ventured out for a day date which included a movie. I love our day dates. I will give my honest review about the movie for those interested. I wanted to see this movie as it was based on a true story. I did enjoy the movie but oh my, it was a tear jerker from the get go! It ended good but mercy! Let's just say that I am thankful that no one was sitting close enough to see my tear stained face. I am glad that I saw it but I am good for a while on sad movies, even if they do end good!   My oldest daughter, her husband and their son participated in the Spartan race which is a series of obstacle courses that challenge. They done so well. As you can see from the pictures it gets pretty muddy!  My three daughters participate each year in the Gate River Run. I love it that they do this together. They have so much support & encouragement from all the onlookers. I am just

{Everyone Needs A Little Fun In Life}

Mercy, has time slipped away from me with blogging. Marty and I took a little time away and then there seems to be so much happening around my neck of the woods that getting a post done has been almost impossible. Well, until now!  We spent a few days at my favorite place, St. Augustine Florida which always requires beach time. You know that you have overstayed your welcome when the security guard has to remind you that you have to be off the beach in 30 minutes! LOL!   Marty surely took the opportunity to get some much needed R & R. No, we didn't create the sand creations but I had to snap a picture of them. Old Glory makes every trip to the beach with us every time that that go and she's flying mighty high and proud.  We stayed at what used to be a B & R. New ownership now has taken over and they had just been opened a week when we stayed. They still have quite of bit to do but it was so lovely and relaxing.(Bliss By The Sea)  The Long boardwalk behind the hotel carri

{Happy Monday}

  I hope that all of you mom's and grandmother's had a wonderful Mother's Day. I was surely blessed and had such a great day that I missed my usual Sunday afternoon post.  My daughters are all moms too so we celebrated together. I am so very blessed to have daughters that love me so well. It's amazing at how your girls become your best friends as adults. Of course they know I rule the roost!!! Some things NEVER change! LOL!  We went out to eat in Fernandina Beach and had a lovely meal. Then we spent the afternoon at the beach. The weather was perfect. My three daughter's surely did good when they gifted Marty and I with these sweet grands.  I have quite a few buckets of tomatoes growing and they are coming along nicely. We've even harvested some potatoes and have gifted some and have eaten out of them several times. Oh, there is nothing better than fresh veggies.  My Easter Lilies are so pretty this year.  We experienced quite a hail storm this past Thursday and

(May Has Arrived)

Well my goodness! May has already begun and full steam ahead it seems. We kicked off our May with our eldest daughter's birthday which was May 3. Of course the gals in my family celebrate a whole month for our birthdays.  Y'all would love my Kristy. She has such a Christ like spirit and shows kindness to others in so many ways. She truly displays the joy of the Lord. We are so blessed that we were chosen to be her parents. It seems our week was busy but good. We kicked off Cinco de mayo with a family party. We had a great time and Fajita's...YUM! My soninlaw David enjoys cooking on his Blackstone and I sure enjoy his cooking! My youngest daughter hosted and she done such a good job and everyone had so much fun.  Fiesta Time! This grand's softball team won the District Champs. Their game was away so we didn't get to go but rooted her and the team on from home. One more game to go this week and it's home! YAY! I stopped by our local Dollar Tree to pick up some par
