T13 – It’s time for an update

1. Been awhile since I actually made an update, so thought I’d actually try to put one together as my T13. It has been a rather busy couple weeks, and well it looks like my next 8 weeks will be recuperating. My surgery is set for June 10th, I’ll be in the hospital for 5-7 days and then recouping at home for 6-8 weeks.  If you want to know more, email me…..I’m not going into detail on here because, well because that’s my prerogative!  innocent

2. We celebrated my grandparents 65th anniversary  weekend before last with all the family and had a blast visiting with everyone and just celebrating these awesome two people!  We looked at old family pictures and had some really good laughs, had a lot of “remember when” moments also. We had to change our plans for the family portraits as it was raining, so no Japanese gardens, but it all worked out well and I can’t wait to see the photos! We had 5 generations present, pretty awesome!! )

Are family has some clowns in it! Isn’t she the cutest?!!!

6. We’ve had a lot of celebrations for our family lately, Saturday night we celebrated my cousin Becca’s getting her BA! Very proud of her, she’s a mom, wife and now a college grad! Becca was one of my flower girls in our wedding, I feel a little “aged.”  embarrassed

7. We finally got our flowers planted in the backyard this weekend, it looks so good!! We potted four hibiscus, two mandevillas, calladiums, an Australian Heather, and an Esperanza . We also have two huge elephant ears to plant, they are as tall as me! I love them!! I wanted the backyard to be beautiful before I had my surgery so while I was recouping I could go sit on the back porch and enjoy the beauty! Hubby is awesome to get it done for me!! luv
