Weekend Mash Up

While scrolling through my pictures on my phone

I realized that I have so much to share

I did post last weekends shots on Facebook

and shared some on Instagram

but here is a little mash-up of last weekend

we arrived at the cottage on Saturday

to a sea of blue ~ the yard was full of forget me nots

they have been finished at home for awhile

so I was pleasantly surprised to see them here

and hated to mow them down

the buttercups were gorgeous and I took quite a few shots

to show Mom as she was not able to come down with us

then it was up to the farm to pick some rhubarb

and to the cemetery to plant some flowers

I cut washed and cut all the rhubarb up on Tuesday night

and bagged it for the freezer

I can't wait to make some goodies with it!

Sunday was Father's day and we went to the camp

to spend the afternoon with his Mum & Dad

I took everything we needed for supper and we feasted on bbq

he also put together his smoker that we got him for Christmas

so next weekend we are having a "rib extravaganza"

can't wait to try these ribs!

I love love love this time of year

and true to form ~ I am out every night doing one thing or the other

last week was no exception

of course I posted about my little Miss

and her junior prom on Thursday night

she makes my heart sing

Friday night looking down the river

I figured we were in for a light show

and man did it ever rain

that first crack of thunder scared the crap out of me

but out to the front porch we went to watch the rain come down

and the light show that only Mother Nature can provide

Trev is all finished work for the summer

perks of driving the big yellow bus full of kiddies around

so he headed out last night after supper

to spend some quality time with his bestie

4 wheeling was just one of the things on his list

some fun and some relaxation ~ I know he is having both

so with him gone it was just me and the furry kids

and I decided that I would take some shots of what made me

smile today

old tubs filled with flowers and sweet peas climbing up 

an old chair back

a sidekick that loves nature as much as I do

peonies in bloom

a sweet treat for getting some things accomplished today

instead of sitting on my butt on the deck!

fresh local berries ~ what to make what to make?

Canada Day prep is starting

next weekend ~ so excited ~ one of my favourite holidays!

Have a great week!
