Getting my yard updated, new plants, painting pots and creating a relaxing spot.  I have been able to get all plants planted, painted 90% of all pots and have a relaxing spot!

I want to go on one road trip this summer to explore a place I've never been to. I just have to talk my husband into getting the time off work to go enjoy himself too. I hope we get outside of our home state of Missouri this time.  I've seen everything here.  Maybe northern Arkansas.

Giving some love to our Backyard.  Missouri summers are a mixed bag, but I'm determined to getting the yard cleaned up/tilled & get some grass seed down, in order to get it entertaining-ready come Fall.

This summer my husband and myself are working on downsizing from a 3 BR colonial house to if we’re lucky into a nice trailer home closer to my Grandson, his Fiancé and our 21 month year old great grandson. Cleaning out 40+ years of our things, plus many years of my parents things that we inherited with my family home. It’s quite overwhelming to say the least. And finding a trailer park willing to allow our babies, I mean dog and 4 cats is proving to be much more difficult than we expected.

Holly, so excited for you and hubby's move and adventure! Hang in there; perhaps after downsizing you'll learn you can even own the trailer park and the babies won't be a problem! Keep us posted?

I just went to Sint Maarten and spent five days at an all inclusive resort w/family and friends that was AMAZING!!!  It was over thirty of us celebrating multiple birthdays and it was a blast!
