Almost Done. WHAT?
The groupI felt like I was "playing" tourist... but since half of us
really were tourists I guess it was more than play!
(of course, after I took this pic, then I had to switch
places with Irma so she could have one with ME in it!)
That's REAL tourists!
WHEW! This morning the "other" in-laws are on their way - heading down to Florida for 5 days of fun in Disney! (well, I am in-laws too!) Amanda & Hector are HOPEFULLY sleeping in a bit and relaxing today! And I thought today was going to be church and a relaxing day of trying to clean off my kitchen table ...
*ahem* just the way I left it on Wednesday....... but my darling Krysti, who has been suffering homesickness and boredom during the first 3 days of all this chaos, showed up Friday night to join us on Saturday - and her new LOVE arrived last night - first time I've met him -- and today we are going to spend the day getting "to know" each other a bit! She wants to go down to Solomon's Island for lunch and fun. I have a feeling I'm going to be pulling all-nighters this week to be ready for VBS next week! LOL! Anybody wanna come help put kits together???
There's about 15 peppers on this plant!!!
Tuesday there was only one TINY one!
Waaaaaay cool!
My BIG surprise after a few days away was this!

The tomatoes are doing GREAT too -- I have about a million of them now I think. Only on two plants - the other plant quit growing and has produced ONE which also quit growing. I can not even fathom a GUESS as to why it did this! But what's really AMAZING me is that that very FIRST tomato has STILL not turned RED! I don't know what's taking it so long! It's crazy! Oh well...
Alright, I knOW how far behind I am on visiting y'all! But bear with me! I warned you how it would be! After today I hope to do a LITTLE catching up - but it will still be slow -- I am SWAMPED! (C'moooon August!) Oy!
I'm off to church now! Seeya!

I would come help you put kits together. Sounds like fun! However, I am busy taking pictures of deer and eagles and hawks. Boring, I know!

If I lived nearby, you can bet I'd be helping. That kind of thing is so much more fun with others.
Is there anyone from church you can call on to help? Someone who works with VBS or someone from the ladies' ministry, if you have one? We have some older ladies here who are always up for helping out with things like that.
Hope you have a good week!

Even after a month of rain, somehow my plants are thriving.
Two of my babies leave today. Ali and Bogart. It's going to be a lot quieter around here.
Belle and Baron leave next weekend.

Have fun and be nice.
Our tomato plant doesn't have nearly that many tomatoes. Even as I write this Betty is working on a costume for VBS. I know you will get the kits done.
