Happy First Day of Summer!
It has arrived with a sizzle!
Super hot and humid with severe thunderstorms...
My porch cushions have been rained on twice now
for the first time ever.
Strong South-West winds drenched my back porch
twice now - have the winds changed??
There have been many beautiful rainbows posted on social media.
I have yet to capture one.
My little "snipping" herb garden has exploded!

| and yes, the bunnies needed to be kept at bay. |
There are some other "little" things growing exponentially around here as well:
A big 40th birthday was celebrated this month!
Patrick and his twin sister Kira, who arrived from Calgary, had a "barn" party!
So fun.
A siblings gathering at my sister Evelyn's "Lake House" was a highlight.
She prepared a beautiful luncheon and in spite of the cool rainy day,
we enjoyed being together immensely.
She even sent us home with a coffee cake - mom's recipe.
What a treat!
A third wedding anniversary without him was spent on a
Russlaender Bus Tour in the Niagara region
with The Mennonite Historical Society of Ontario.
As we toured through beautiful Niagara-On-The-Lake, I suddenly
realized that we had been there 10 years ago, celebrating our 41st on this very day!
Sweet memories ...
There is another quilt on the go ....
hot, rainy and humid days are perfect sewing days.
This one has me nervous - sure hope I can actually accomplish
it in time for a special anniversary!?
Time will tell.
The hot tub has been dialed down a bit and is where I'll be
some of the time during this heat wave.
Also, anticipating some awesome theatre shows coming up.
How is your summer shaping up?
Till next time ... stay well, cool, hydrated and enjoy these summer days!
Go Oilers, Go!!!!
