Been Too Long Without Posts

Here it is 8 months later since my last post.
We are happy to announce that Larry & Amy will have child # 11 this month of Oct.
Gives us a lot of grandkids to keep up with. Anyone like to share our christmas bills? just kidding

The garden this year didn't do so hot. Funny weather, rain wasn't falling right and had to use a lot of city water. Too many minerals and other stuff in that water to really do good. Tomatos was attacked by some bug that ate into them as soon as they were close to ripe. Other words, we didn't get many to keep.
Now cucumbers are a another completely different story.
I grew pickling cucumbers and I made 54 quarts and 15 pints of dill pickles.
I also added Dill in the garden this year as so did Don my son.
He also made lots of dill pickles this year again.
Retirement isn't as great as a person thinks it is. Being disabled and on a tight budget makes you watch things close.
Linda's crafts and card making are going great. Linda keeps adding things to the craft room she has. Linda took one bedroom and changed it completely into crafts and supplies.
Go to her website, link is on here and look at all them.
I haven't added anymore crocheting as I haven't done any. Lots of blankets out all over the USA.

Well enough for now. God Bless you all!

These are pictures of a flower someone gave Linda. It looks like a little tree but the flowers are really pretty. Big yellow and the inside is deep red which turns to pink and then to yellow. Anyone have a clue of the name of this flower we would really like to know. Thanks for visiting our site.

This is Thomas the oldest grandson holding his youngest brother Adam.
Adam is growing like a weed and teething. He already has 6 teeth at the age of 6 months.
Linda and I have lots of grand kids to spoil. Problem is most are too far to see very often.
