Hummingbirds, Grandbabies, Fishing, Soap making

I do believe we are back on the mend....Yay!!!!  That nasty virus has tucked tail and run!

Well, I've made 2 more batches of soap. Another lavender and a lemon.  I'm wanting to make some rose, honeysuckle, lilac, pear and apple scented soaps.  Any requests???? Throw me some ideas.

Bryce and Brentlee came for about a week.  Ohhhh I love my grandbabies....I can't explain it but there's just something wonderful about being grandma.  Del took Faith and Brentlee fishing at the dam of  the Arkansas River.  They had a good time.  Brentlee was passed smooth out by the time they got home.  Get this... a guy caught a seagull.....for real!!!  The seagull dove down for a fish and got hooked on a guys line. They reeled it in and set it free.  I had to make sure that Brentlee's mom and dad knew that when he said they went fishing and a guy caught a bird....it really did happen.

 The hummingbirds are back!

 Our plum tree was in full bloom this spring.  I hope it's full of plums this year.


 After you Ma`am.
