Hello to August a little late, excited for whatever it may bring us!
 
Thank you for the prayers and love on my last posts. My stepdad did pass away after a 5 week battle with cancer. He was loved and respected by many as a teacher and coach and of course his family. He will forever be in our hearts! Rest in peace "T" and thank you for all you did for us and many!
 
We lost other family and friend members during this time too, forever in our memories are they too.
 
Thank you for visiting and your comments!! HUGS and LOVE!!

  6. I am so envy of your sunflowers, my friend sent me a package of sunflower seed and I have no luck with them.
    Happy August!

  7. I am so, so late visiting this month, and am really sorry I haven't been around to visit more. I can't seem to catch up or catch my breath, so I hope you understand. It's hard, too, because I always love your "Around Here" and your "Hello (current month)" posts each month.

    I was saddened to read about your step-dad. I hope your mom is doing OK now.

    Your sunflowers are phenomenal. Quite amazing, in fact. Here's to a happy remainder of August as the kids head back to school.
