A Flowerful Weekend!

Hello, Everybody!

The time just seems to fly by. It is hard to believe that we are already in the last half of April. Ellen went back to her home on Sunday. Oh, my, Sharon already misses her. She will continue to come early each morning to help Sharon get dressed and ready for the day of therapy, doctors' appointments, etc.



This first picture was taken of us on Easter Sunday morning. It was great to be able to go to church and see all of the little kids dressed up in their Easter clothes. Church was packed. Standing room only--as usual.

The weather was beautiful this weekend. Our cold weather is just about over. We each bought a Hibiscus tree! (Like we needed another Hibiscus plant!) Sam's Club had them. We love the woven trunks and for the price, we couldn't pass them up. We were able to transplant them into bigger pots.

Now, for a few pictures of our "babies" that we pampered in the greenhouse all winter long. The geraniums flourished!!

These are two cabbage plants that were in three inch pots when we first got them. Neither of us has ever grown a cabbage before. If we are able to have a couple of nice heads, we'll bring the cole-slaw for dinner!!
This week is Secretary's Week. Ellen tries to do something different for the office ladies every year. They are such a wonderful group to work with. We found beautiful petunias in vibrant colors. Here's Ellen getting the plants all "dressed up".
Here are the finished products. They are ready to be delivered to four very special ladies!!
Until next time. . . . . .. .....
