Oh my! What a post!! :o)
Oh Mr. Fix-It was just adorable! Yes he knows it, too. :-P
Those were some beautiful blossoms! My favorite is - of course - the Orange Blossoms!!! I wait eagerly every year for them to come out! Every morning I go out and pick some. :o)
I love the picture of CJ on the fence! Great shot! And my oh my!! That redneck picture! Oh mercy! They were DISCUSTINGLY perfect!
And yes it's always a pleasure to run up to the Stricklens for ice and/or water. :o) Pete and I look forward to it every day or two - however long we've held out. :-P
Callie, that was a beautiful dress!! And Abby, you look lovely in it. :-)
Love,
~Kitty~
We agree on all that Kitty said about your post...it was awesome...except for the ice part!!
So glad to see everyone happy and healthy and serving the Lord!!
Much Love,
The Graves Family
That was a great set of pictures! The one of C.J. on the fence was precious.(I'm sure he'll appreciate that comment)
The pictures with William and the cat were adorable! Everyone should have a cat for a friend.
The Central FL redneck picture...deja vous of the Polk County Youth Fair. AAAAAAGH!
Abby looked lovely and Callie has become quite an accomplished seamstress!
Love,
Katie

Oh, what a sweet post! Well, sweet to Grandmother, who loves happy home memories -- and those children will have lots of those!
All the blooming things are just beautiful, and let me tell you, the lettuce, cabbage, and Brussels sprouts are delicious, too!
Someday, Willie is going to ask why he had so many pictures on the blog. "Well, because you are adored by your family, of course!" will be the answer! The rednecks are my favorite, although I would have preferred to see them in shirts, for Pete's sake!!
Love it.
Love, Grandmother/Mama
Who is posting under Kitty's name, rather than go through the hassle of changing names. Kitty, you have been caught on my computer!
(You know I don't mind, don't you?)
