Update!!!

This has been a very sad and busy last few days. I am having a very hard to time shaking this awful feeling. I am so sad and upset over the loss of my friend.

They had a celebration of life for Teri on Saturday followed by some food at the church. It was a beautiful service. After that we went to the Libbrecht home and ate, drank and celebrated Teri's life there with family and friends.

I am at work Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. We are leaving for the river tomorrow with some friends. I am hoping it is going to be a nice weekend.

Next week will be crazy too. We work Monday & Tuesday and then off to Mexico for the 4th of July.

I will try to post some pictures soon. Please keep the Libbrecht family in your prayers this has been a most difficult time for everyone.

Tragic Loss!!


I have had a tragic loss in my family. My friend died on Thursday. She got sick and went into the hospital on Monday with a very bad infection. They couldn't do anything for her. She loss the battle early Thursday morning. She was only 58 years old. She leaves behind a Husband . A 25 year old daughter, A 27 year old son and future daughter in law ( my daughter Alexi). And a very large immediate family. This is a great loss to our family.

The whole world is crying today!! Please keep this family in your prayers they are going to need the help in the coming weeks and months.

Coyote's

This coyote came to visit last week. They are so comfortable on our property. He just walked across the driveway to get a drink out of the fountain.

Things around the house!!

Here are a few photos of some things around my house:

The hummingbirds are amazing right now.  They are very hard to get a photo of.
One of the gnomes Tim made me for my birthday.  It sits by our front door.

This fan palm tree on our property always has a bird sitting on the top of it.  This palm is the worlds largest palm tree.


Our orchard tree.  This tree is only two years old and has beautiful flowers on it all the time.

Gift for Zach!!!

I made this blanket for Zach for his birthday in April. I am just now getting it finished. It took me longer than I thought it would. I think it is my favorite one I have crochet so far. It gets real hard when the blanket gets bigger. It becomes heavy and hard to move around. But it still was my favorite.
