Your flowerbeds look great and so do your flowers. I really like your grandfather rug it is very nice. We have had a lot of rain here too, had thunderstorms yesterday for almost 7 hours. Cute name for the calf. I know you enjoyed seeing Christine and family and had a great time with those little sweeties that are growing so fast. Thank you so much for stopping by my blog and leaving the wonderful comment. I so love hearing from you, gives me a "pick me up". Try to find some "Julia" time and take care of yourself my sweet friend.

I can't imagine having such gorgeous flowers all over like you have. Like always I don't know how in the world you do all this along with everything else you do. <br />Your days are so full but I know at the end of the day you are rewarded with the beauty you have shared with us. <br />I love your rug of your grandfather. Of course I don't see what your talking about but you have to be happy with it. I think it is wonderful.<br />I know I am repeating myself but your an amazing woman and how I would love to be more like you.<br />Enjoy your weekend and try to get some rest. I know that is not going to happen.<br />I think of you often and miss you<br />Love<br />MaggieGrandma Yellow Hairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10917551672825097342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6876827638819064500.post-72929939271200631122015-06-18T10:37:54.561-03:002015-06-18T10:37:54.561-03:00Your garden is beautiful!

It looks like such a lot of work, but so worth it to see it so gorgeous.<br /><br />I don't know how you get it all done, plus the cows and the calves!<br /><br />You're an amazing lady. <br /><br /><br />I love the hooked rug.

Your flower beds are worthy of a gardening magazine.<br />Your grandfather portrait is a masterpiece. If there are color differences they don't show in the picture. You did a great job.<br />I hope you are planning a little bit of relaxation time before the summer is over.<br />weaverpathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16533327863909312395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6876827638819064500.post-23974470565631657392015-06-16T19:54:06.235-03:002015-06-16T19:54:06.235-03:00Your gardens are looking good after your taming of...Your gardens are looking good after your taming of the weeds. It is so much had work but when the sun shines & the blooms show off their colour...Julia it will make you smile. After years of visiting your garden, I've been inspired to create one too & know how hard you've worked reclaiming your flower beds from those nasty weeds.<br />The memorial rug looks great! I'm discouraged with my bell pull, I had to take all the background out as I misplaced or used ecru backing colour. I will finish it now, by making one trip to the Dollar Store for my Briggs & Little yarn, just for this project. A learning lesson I will remember when juggling a few hooked rugs at once...no dipping in borrowing yarns till the project at hand is done!<br /> I think Lemmon is a very unique name for a cow, I grew up with Elsie the Borden cow & she was pretty. lol <br />Bins are great for storage & Walmart is one of the easiest stores to deal with, making the returns or mishaps as your fast & easily done.<br />You get so much done in one day, do pace yourself & rest when needed. You'll need your strength for the family this weekend with those grandsons. lol Enjoy your week Julia.<br />Hugs,<br />Cynthia<br />Kyrotimehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07328503785870363796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6876827638819064500.post-35258156827011412362015-06-15T21:44:19.795-03:002015-06-15T21:44:19.795-03:00Awesome job on the flower beds!

On the bottom right it looks like it might be a tad different in color but that could be a shadow, which would only add to the realism of the piece.<br /><br />Your gardens are wonderful and you come from very hearty stock because I could not have endured 3 days of on my knees and bending over.
