Love the kitty. How adorable. Your plants are looking really great. We are going to barbecue today for dinner. I am doing chicken over the wood fire today. John is going to start the fire this afternoon so I have nice hot coals to cook over. We did hamburgers last evening on our new grill. They were delicious. Got our sunporch finished. It really looks great. Posted a picture in my journal.

Looks like your cucumbers are about ready to make pickles out of. I need to do lime pickles again this year. I can't believe I am almost out of them. I canned a lot of them last year but we really like them and they just disappear over the year.

Hope you have a great holiday weekend. We don't have anything planned just yet other than the fireworks tonight. We have to leave Mya and Abby home when we go to the fireworks. They are both afraid of fireworks.

Thanks for sharing your day with us. Love you and will catch up with you later. Wrote a journal this morning. You can catch up on what we have been doing.
