Memorial Day

I just wanted to take a minute to thank all of the veterans past and currently serving our country for everything they have done and continue to do to ensure that we can live in a free country!

Thank you

Birthdays!

Not only have I stayed busy with gardening, there have also been a couple of birthdays celebrated since I last wrote.

Scott's dad, Steve, turned 60 this year and to celebrate his birthday we tried to suprise him with a party Morton's Pub and Grub. Scott's sister and brother-in-law (Stacy & Ty) own the restaurant and wanted to host the party there. While the attempt was sincere, Steve is really hard to suprise and he knew something was up. A good time was had by all and it was nice to be able to spend time with family.

Not only did Scott's dad celebrate a birthday, my niece, Josie, turned 3 this year and she had a Princess party (complete with crown cake, princess shoes, and tons of cloths & toys). This party in particular was super memorable as some of the party participants witnessed an amazing crash as a car flew off US 31 and into someone's home. Now, in a small town (Edinburgh, IN--I know, you've never heard of it) you would think this would make news in one of the local papers, but alas, it didn't! My theory is that if someone had been injured, it would have...so sad to think that the only time news gets made is when someone is injured! It was quite the site though to see this grand prix hanging half in and half out of a house. When it first happened, we thought that the car had gone into the living room area of the home, but once we drove by, we realized that thankfully the car had gone into the garage area of the home. Anyway, here is a picture of Scott, Josie, and I from her princess party!

Long time, no see....

I feel that I first must apologize to my fan base (all 2 of my readers) for my lack of posting since February! I guess I haven't really had much to post about that I felt was interesting but I promise to try and be better about posting!

Anyway, too much has happened to share everything, but let me just say life is good and life is busy! Although I know everyone already knows those things as well!

I started with the Gardening group at the church in April and the grounds are looking great. I will take some pictures and post them so you can see what our group has been up too the past month or so....

I also finished my Master Gardening class and I am now considered a Master Gardening Intern until I complete my volunteer hours. I decided to make my project landscaping the parsonage house for our church. Scott and I have become friends with Brian and Rachel in the past 18 months that we have been attending First United Methodist Church so it has been nice to be able to do something like this for them. I have included some before pictures and once we get a few more things done, I will post some after pictures!

Hope you are having a great day!
