Sunday was a special day and I spent several hours at church with my friend. We decided to sing some special songs for the Easter service and it was fun. One of the things that we do on Easter is decorate a cross that is made from wood and free standing with fresh flowers cut from the gardens of the … [Read more...]
Gardening: In Full Bloom
March 11, 2014 by
Spring has been hitting hard here in the west. I can tell because my family has all been sick with sinus infections and other yucky effects of spring.
