A shrub with special meaning.....

This shrub came from my garden at our other house..........but originated from Popster's Grandmother's yard.  She was an amazing lady from good Polish stock & lived across the street from us.  She mowed her own lawn with an old-fashioned push mower until well into her 80's.  I finally hd to resort to going over at the crack of dawn so I could mow for her.
I have moved this several times & have finally found the perfect spot for it........it is a type of spirea ....I think Van Houte but am not positive.
It was so beautiful this year.........
.........the perfect memory of ......
........a beautiful lady!
Her name was Magdelina...........
.......so that's what I call this shrub.

Love

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BIG BROTHER

Happy birthday to my big brother Terry...........have a wonderful day!

Yowsa!

 I was woken up around 3:30am yesterday by thunder as a line of severe storms were rolling through the area.  My alarm goes off at 4:00am so I figured I'd just get up.  I was standing in the kitchen waiting for the coffee pot when there was a blinding explosion in the back yard along with a huge clap of thunder.  It was like someone threw a bomb in the yard....needless to say it scared the crap out of me & I was waiting for a tree to fall.  We didn't see anything & I left the house at 7:00am while it was still raining.  Popster didn't see this until last night but it had struck this big oak that is about 15 feet from our sun room.  It just stripped that piece of bark right off the tree  Makes the expression "Don't mess with Mother Nature" become very real!

Forever Family Day

Oh my.....where does the time go!  Ten years ago this scared & tiny little girl was brought into a room full of strangers. She was so confused by the strange faces. Now look at the beautful, confident girl she has grown into. We love you LiLi💖 Love
