Storms and Summer Fun

 I know that title sounds a little strange but along with summer fun comes summer storms. ☀️ 

Storms came through our region the other night and our son got called out and has been out for two days. They joined up with another Electiric Cooperative and restored power in that region. 

Our counties help each other out. This is not all of them. This is just one crew on one area. We were fortunate to be able to spot him. 

This meant he was not going to be home for a few days and when the girls were asked where they wanted to stay,  of course you know where they said. POPPIE AND GMAWS.  ❤️❤️❤️💙 

So we have made the best of it. 

We have played and played and worked some too. They know that we have to get our work done before we can play and they get rewarded. 

Diving sticks and rings are a necessity in our pool. I can remember when our boys were little, that was their favorite thing to do in the pool. Well, the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree. 

I had been waiting on this little booger to come from Amazon. A table top grill. This little thing works good. Perfect for kids and me too. These things are yummy 😋

We are going to have fun with this. It can even be used inside because it is odorless and smokeless. You can get yours here

We have been walking through the garden every day and checking. We will have green beans soon and corn. I am so excited. 

First time ever tye dying shirts. I guess this is why they say wear gloves. Just call me Smurfette.

Sometimes you just eat what they eat. But I tell yall what, those Zucchini pickles are a hit. We have gone through a jar and a half already.
