Wednesday

Happy Birthday Tirzah!


So close and yet so far on your birthday!

Enjoy!

Still driving on...

 
and on...

 
Can you tell I'm fond of this particular style of postcard?
 
Tomorrow we'll be in Hillsdale!

Tuesday

Driving on through Montana.
 
 
Montana is where Phil was born (Billings)

 
and into South Dakota...


 
Wide open spaces and sunshine (I hope).

Monday

I started this blog about four years ago, with photos from our "road trip" to Hillsdale College in August 2009.  This road trip will complete the circle, as we go attend Walker's graduation and bring him home.

Celebrating Mother's Day a little early.


Celebrating Mother's Day on May 5th

 
Family luncheon and a fuchsia basket...

 
Some gardening help...

 
gorgeous day over 80 degrees!
 
 
The ladies...

 
I couldn't decide which photo I liked better.

 
And, have you been down Henderson Blvd?
It is lined with these blue flowers.
I thought they were forget-me-nots
but they're not.
flax?
 
so pretty.
 
Happy Mother's Day

What's beautiful in your garden today?

Tulips blooming, a gift from hubby last October...
 
 
One of our many rhododendrons

 
I think the snowballs will bloom while we're away...

 
Lilac that my mom bought me a few
years ago, finally blooming!

Fond memories

Out for a walk ... and an announcement.
 
Thursday is one of my days babysitting Wyatt. The last couple of weeks we've been taking the stroller out and walking around my mom and dad's neighborhood.
 
He's always a cheery fellow and he brought along his camera this time too.
 
We saw a cute pair of pugs;
Another kind of bigger doggie;
a helicopter...
 
 
And I saw lots of flowers. 

 
Lilac season is my favorite.

 
I was amazed to see these Trilliums as part of a neighbor's landscape!

 
Trilliums bring back fond memories of my childhood.
 
Oh, the announcement:
 
Walker was offered and has accepted the teaching job in Pennsylvania!
They contacted him the last day of classes.
He's very happy.
Me too.
