Flowerholic!


I have had this post that I have been wanting to put up all summer. I finally have a few minutes ad nothing else to post about, Yeah!! This spring I loaded up in my car and set out to buy some flowers. I do this every spring, it is one of my favorite things. I went from shop to shop getting some of these and some of those. As I was driving away from the last store I glanced in my rear view and realized I had a problem. There was no room for another human in my Tahoe. The seats were covered with pots, the floor boards with bags of potting soil, and in the back was a carpet of bright colors. Then I called my husband and told him I had an addiction and needed some help. I am FLOWERHOLIC!!! I had totally blown my budget and dipped into my secret cash stash(that really is not a secret). I didn't care I love flowers. All summer I have been taking pictures so I could do this post. So here are most of my flowers. From pansies to petunias Daisy and Dahlias. Purples, pinks, reds, and blues. Yellow and orange ones too. Little ones and big ones. Short ones and tall ones. Some kind of off the wall ones. I don't care they all make me smile. If you like you can come and sit for awhile. P.S.- just a little side note, my roses look even better now that they have had all summer. Also I don't have any pictures of all my early spring flowers like my Iris and my tulips. Right now my Gladiolas and my orange Dahlias look amazing but I don't have pictures of those either.

Farewell


This last week was Cody's mission farewell. All of my sisters were in town, and some of their husbands even made it. On Saturday we had a big birthday/farewell party for Cody. Sunday he talked and all of us girls sang. All of the other days we just had family time. I love my family. When we get together we are goofy, but we have so much fun. I also love my nieces and nephews, they say and do the funniest things. Somehow through all the fun family time and the preparing a missionary for the MTC I never took 1 picture. So if you would really like to see pictures and feel like you were part of the fun, feel free to check mom's blog or Cali and Travis'. Cami's has some really good pictures too if you are allowed on there. Other than that Kelly and I have been super busy this month of August. We work all week and between rodeos, farewells, weddings, and more rodeos we have had something going every weekend. One of these days I will get up a real post. Until then I hope you are all having as much fun as we are, and I love you!
