For starters we want to wish John a very happy and belated birthday. Hope you had a wonderful day!! Secondly we want to wish Lindsay and Kyle a very happy anniversary. You are an amazing couple and we hope you have a wonderful, happy, healthy and exciting life together!!

So not too much new around here, I got fed up and decided to ignore the 'no driving until 07Aug rule' and got in the car when Jim was at Rotary last week to see if it was okay. No problem. I slammed on the breaks and it was all good. I couldn't drive too far as the foot gets a little tired but it's so good. I can't wait to get the other one done.

We are starting to get more prepared for the wedding. James (the fellow that did our kitchen) installed another arbour under the willow for Jamie & John to stand under for the ceremony. It looks so nice! We are both really pleased.
Unfortunately the weather has been so bad that the gardens just got flattened this weekend. I managed to get out today and start dead heading and hopefully I can get things back looking beautiful again. Certainly is not a good summer, sure hope it smartens up by wedding day!!!

Now here are a couple of pictures that some of you have been asking for regarding the house that we have been looking at. We thought that we were through with it but it might still be a go (might). We both really love the place and it is just such a nice place for the family and grandkids to come to in the future. Lots of land and lots of space. Would be an amazing place for any of you to come and spend a nice relaxing time. There is even a 'carriage house', otherwise known as a self contained suite over the separate garage. It's very nice and the best thing is that if it doesn't work it's no big deal cause we love it here (other than the cul de sac). It would also make Jamie very happy if it didn't work but I think she would be amazed how much she would like the other place.
Oops, gotta go, something just came up. I'll try and post more tomorrow.

Been Awhile...

Well Hi There! You would think that considering I'm basically stuck here until at least the 7th of August that I would post more often but there's really not too much happening. The good news was Jamie came Saturday night or rather 2:00 a.m. Sunday morning and then Heather arrived Sunday evening so they kept me entertained and gave me something to write about.
Yesterday Pat & Ryan came over for while and the girls kept Ryan in stitches the entire time he was here. Pat had to practically drag him out of here.Then the tide came in...
It was so great to hear the two of them out there goofing around. Mind you there was the moment that I realized they were quickly heading for the other side of the bay but they made it back safe and sound.
Lots of fun and I hated to see them go but hopefully they will be back for the August long weekend and maybe by then I can join them out there.
As for the foot it's coming along but I'm getting totally fed up with hobbling about! I can't get down the beach because it's uneven and I'm not allowed (or do I want) to put any weight on the front of my foot. I'm also not allowed to drive just in case I have to slam on the breaks or bump it etc., etc., so I wander about the yard with the dogs staring at me, such fun. Oh well, if nothing else the flowers look amazing!
