Dance Recital and busy weekend

It was a very busy weekend. Friday was taking grandaughter to have her ears pierced and hair done for the big dance recital, her first one,she was so excited.(grandma too)

Friday night was dress rehearsal from 4:00--10:45 .

Saturday night was the big night,it was great,brought 2 grandsons home for the rest of the weekend,while their parents are out of town.

Sunday we all made it to church , potluck afterwards and baby shower.

Cooking Sunday night Fathers day dinner for husband.Whew , I need another weekend to recuperate.I know these years will pass way too fast so I am enjoying every minute .

The princess and I had a Tea Party today. This is my favorite tea set, I bought it on ebay from Denmark,a few years ago.It usually sits in my curio cabinet,but we decided to get it out and use it today. Simple pleasures and making memories !

Summer Fun

Its hard to believe it is already June 15. I have been very busy with the grandchildren since school has been out. After a week of VBS we have been going to the movies, skating, birthday parties, the beach or shopping almost every day. Grandaughter has dance rehearsal every day this week with the big recital Saturday, so another busy week. It is so much fun though and this time with them will be so fleeing. I am thankful for every minute we have to enjoy.

A give-away

Leah is having a give-away at "Miss Leah's makings and musings"
check it out, she has some wonderful things. I just ordered a book of poetry she wrote.

I'm back and it's Summer already !

Hi everyone, I am back after taking some time off from blogging , to deal with some family issues.
I can hardly believe it is June already,it is summer here in N. Fl highs in the high 90's Where did Spring go? I did not get to do a lot of things I wanted to,now its too hot to do much outside and I have never been much of a morning person. Oh well, now I have summer to look forward to , trips to the beaches ,Springs and Islands near us, visiting the farmers market and getting fresh vegetables,putting some in the freezer for the winter, making homemade pickles,fig preserves and pear relish it will be fun!
Thank you so much for those of you who sent me messages while I was away,
it was a big help to know you were there and concerned.
Love, Elizabeth

Boats, Antiques, and Bok Tower OH MY

We are back! It was our" International Classic boat Rally" at Lake Wales,Fl.

which was very nice but also visiting historic lake wales with its lovely restaurants and antiques(there was an antique show on the streets saturday that I attended.) A friend and I spent one afternoon at Bok Tower which was wonderful,the gardens were beautiful as well as the music.We sat in the quite beautiful gardens listening to the concert of bells. It was such a beautiful and peaceful place.On the way home I stopped at several antique stores and cracker barrels,who were having 70% off porch sales,so ofcourse I could not pass one up.

LIFE

Live is not a problem to be solved,but a mystery to be lived.
