SUMMER GARDEN GREETINGS! :) Hi angel friends! :) my family, Holly, and i are thinking of you all, and we hope everyone is doing well, healthy, and keeping cool and hydrated, on this very hot summer day. We hope everyone is having a nice day :) You all are always in our thoughts, prayers, and in our hearts :) We're keeping mostly indoors today, but did go outside a couple times, to take good care of our nature friends, and our plants :) we gave our plants a really good soaking with the water nourishment, and also making sure the bird bath, and water bowls in our backyard, are filled with fresh water, and we put extra goodies outside today too :) it feels like 100 degrees outside here, it's very summer hot. Our nature friends, and plants are doing well, and we all are doing well too, keeping hydrated, and as cool as we can :) Lots of iced water, gatorade, and also having some iced coffee too :) We care deeply about everyone, and want everyone to be ok, through these very hot days. As much as we love to be outside in our yard, and garden, we knew it would be best today to limit the amount of time we spent outside, especially with the weather very hot. We're gonna be going out tomorrow to get some treats at mcdonalds drive-thru :)

Blossoming into the new week! :) This morning, we had a sweet new day, rising and shining :) our nature friends were up early this morning, ready to begin their day :) We've been loving seeing all of our nature friends visiting our yard, it warms our hearts, that they enjoy visiting and have plenty of foods, and water to enjoy from their daily visits to our yard :) i was up early this morning, getting ready for my nature walk :) i put together a huge bowl of goodies, for our nature friends :) lots of breads, some pizza crust, also some crumble peanut butter cookies, sunflower seeds, and peanuts :) i went outside for my early morning nature walk :) i could feel the warmth in the air already, the sun was rising up more, and it felt like it was gonna be a very hot day. i put lots of goodies in the bird sanctuary area, in our backyard :) this area of our yard, is more shaded, due to the trees, and is a nice area for nature friends to gather, and enjoying some goodies, and to keep cool and comfy :)

Our plants are doing great :) i walked over to our garden areas this morning :) the pumpkins and gourds plants, have grown absolutely sweet summer wild, along with the tomato plants :) we have lots of cherry tomatoes growing, and are so excited to make some jars of fresh homemade salsa, that we'll be able to enjoy with some tortilla chips :) It's gonna be awesome :) the cucumbers plants are doing great, along with the string beans, cabbage, peas, zuchinni, and yellow squash :) We've been enjoying the nice fresh garden goodies :) for our zuchinni, so far we've made sauteed, fried, steamed, boiled, and want to bake some zuchinni sometime soon :) Our popcorn,and peppers plants are doing great too :)

New Collectibles! :) i'm very happy and excited to share with everyone ,about some new collectibles i bought on ebay :) i've been checking out some baseball, and football cards :) i thought it would be cool, to buy a few packs of cards, to put away as collectibles :) 2020 is a very rare year, with all that's been going on with the pandemic, and baseball and football, both entering seasons that are very different. i ordered some packs of baseball cards, 2 packs of football cards, and also ordered the rookie card of Chase Young, he's the #2 draft pick for my favorite football team, that is going by the name, "washington football team" (The Redskins). it's been years, since i've ordered some sports cards :) i look forward to adding the cards to my collection :) i believe the cards will be rare, due to 2020, and all that's going on. i want to add a few of the packs to my collection, to hold onto, as i love collectibles ,and i collect cards, coins, and stamps :)
