We have had a busy summer so far. I have been working a lot in our yard. It is a never ending process. We planted Marigolds and Dahlias. The Marigolds are doing great, but the Dahlias don't look very good. In fact two of them have died. We also planted Zinnia and Cosmo seeds. The Zinnias and Cosmos are growing, and we hope to see blooms in a couple of weeks.
Stephanie had surgery on her hand on June 15th. She wanted to get it done before school started in August, and she went back to teaching. On top of having surgery, she and I both got the flu. It wasn't a very fun week. Stephanie's mom came down to stay with us to help Stephanie while I went back to work. Because of her hand surgery, Stephanie wasn't able to do all of the things she wanted to during the month of June. So July should be a very busy month for her.
We spent Father's Day with our families; it was great to visit with them. We are very lucky to have great fathers who have been good examples to us. We love and appreciate all they have done for us.
