All is well with Dad's Rose bush, as you can see!

Remember that I replanted Dad's Rose bush on May 29th?...well...this is how it looked on June 25th!

But...by the time sister Padie and bro' in law Ken got here on July 1st, it was down to one bloom.

I am really hoping it will bloom again but am grateful it survived the journey and bloomed once!

We have the Angels with us...they have been here for about 10 days and we are all having a blast. We do something fun every day (see photo of my Angels and Auntie Padie!)

...work in the morning of course but then the afternoon is all ours...we have been to the beach a couple of times, the Splash Park an unknown number of times and yesterday, we went exploring down by the river. We discovered a swiimmin' hole! Yippee! Today it is raining but the rain is welcome...it has been in the low 30*'s for ages now and the girls could use a break in the heat. EXCEPT...today is the day we are going horseback riding...I hope these showers are isolated!!

Padie and Ken had a great time but, sadly they had to leave yesterday. I hope they come back soon!
