Fun in the Sun

Before the "heat dome" set up here in western NY, we all took a picnic at Clarendon falls for lunch on a day the boys had off of school! We were the only ones there so we set up in the shade right by the beautiful falls.

Of course the boys had to get into the creek and check out the rocks!

Later the boys enjoyed a competitive game of badminton in the back yard as the sun was setting.

In early May I got my veggie garden in! I started several tomato and pepper plants from seed, and already had garlic growing from last fall. I added carrots, beets, marigolds, kale, cilantro, spinach, and lettuce seeds! The deer have been nibbling on the bigger plants so I recently had to set up a wire fence around it.

My peonies were beautiful when blooming! I cut several bouquets and had them inside to enjoy.

Nick took a solo trip to Oklahoma to take care of some family business, so we sent selfies while he was away.

On a nice sunny afternoon I went with my friend Christina to a secret place where we sat in camp chairs with music and snacks. The hours flew by!

And on June 11 I turned 38 years young and CHOPPED my hair off! Took off a total of at least 12" for a great summer cut.
