To all those hard working men out there, especially my dad today!

And my brother and my hubby, who are out there in the heat and wind of Kansas, cutting wheat and…….checking weather on their cell phones!  WAIT!  What’s wrong with this picture?  Maybe I’m just not used to these high tech farmers with their fancy gadgets.  When I was a little girl we had the luxury of two way radios and THAT was cool! 

KUDOS to all the farmers out there and happy harvesting!

PS!!!!  Here’s how we ended the day.  Couldn’t resist showing you this one…….

 My daughter and fiance had stopped at Ivers in Seattle after flying back from the wedding.  And she thought she had gotten away from all the crazy ducks!

Number #10, KIM! Because, I decided to rate our fabulous weekend wedding and I gave it a 10!!

MARRIED!!  More to post later, but first I need to tend to my ducks, my garden, and life in general!

A few weeks ago we spent maybe our last official “spring break” with our girls and their boys.  We drove to Texas and our oldest and fiance, flew in from Washington state.  The baby……..

 is in grad school and will graduate this summer.  Since she is so busy, we all invaded her home for the week.  She and her fiance have a new huskie puppy, Charlee…..

The baby (she really isn’t any more, but was last out of my body, so she will always be!) sure does love her puppy!!

Can you see that life is all about the puppy right now? 

The baby did have another mission….to change her sista’s hair.  (This tends to be a touchy issue from big sisters past.  She was always VERY particular about who cut her hair and how they did it!)  The baby put her arm around her big sister and said, “Don’t worry, let me take care of everything!”  So the young one made an appointment and went for support.  Or I should say took the big sis so she wouldn’t back out!  Here’s big sister BEFORE……

Drum roll please, the AFTER….

LOVE IT!!  And sure love my girls! 

Thanks to the Texas kids for all that hospitality!!  We had a GREAT time!  xxxooo  Mom
