Taylynn is such a pretty name. I hope she has a wonderful birthday. Wow, those plants are really pretty. The pink ones are my favourite as pink is one of my two favourite colours. :)

Hi Chris So happy you had such a wonderful Sunday. John and I also enjoyed the day and really just spent the day relaxing. WE had a picnic for dinner with hamburgers, macaroni salad and corn on the cob and banana cake for dessert. It was a perfect weather day. Enjoyed your nature pictures, especially the flowers. Our Rose of Sharon bushes are starting to bloom. They are so pretty. Will have to take a picture when it is out in full bloom. Have a great day today and enjoy Tarlynn's birthday party. Looking forward to seeing the pictures.

Darling Chris, yes thank you for the card, it was so nice to see that you care for me, I too care but life has changed so much, its like I never get time, read your journal, happy day to all, and a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO TAYLYNN, many happy returns , have a wonderful day, party and family gathering, it is surely a happy time . Lovely garden photos, do you still have Sparrows visiting the garden , feeders, here I have a colony of Sparrows chicks and feed them each day, also 2 Robins and one Blackbird, sadly the daddy blackbird was killed by a neighbour cat 2 weeks ago, it was such a friendly blackbird, I feed him dried worms, biscuits, hopefully it will survive, a smaller one has not come back, it all made me sad but there was nothing I could do.
W e are well, Grandson was ill with virus but is better, still has a bit of cough, saw him yesterday and he is so sweet, he was gardening with his Dad, he loves the garden and wildlife as we do.
Best wishes to all the family, joy, peace and love to all, have a wonderful day, so good to hear from you, love all the vegetables , as always you are a super gardener, keep smiling, yes I am waiting for twd series, don't watch much lately.
You have a great party, Lici and Charlie are well , they are sleeping, the sky is now cloudy and I am going to get the washing, it was sunny in the morning and warm but now looks all cloudy , we have been having a lot of rain this month.
Yesterday was sunny and warm, went to the church in the forest and we sat there and walked Charlie, she loves it, had some cake that they sell there and bought some porcelain items they sell second hand, it was good to go out for the afternoon.
See you soon darling, do email me when you can, give my love to Dezna, blessings and many hugs, joy, forever friends*****
