This is the view out of my bedroom window, the elephant ears have grown huge this summer
I love having them there, it gives nice shade and our big dog likes to sleep right under my window:)
Sarah and me in front of the Elephant Ears
Is it huge or what?
My GRAPE vine...the only grape I saw LOL
it looks good tho
behind our house. Last year when we cut down the elephant ears (you have to do that once it gets cold or they rot) the boys threw the out in the woods...they came back to life LOl
This is behind the back fence, looks like we live in a jungle.
Took this picture last night of the boys. Everyone had had their baths, the house was clean and we watched "Creature from the Black Lagoon" It was filmed in Walkulla Springs up near where I'm from. Jon and I spent one of our anniversaries there at the lodge. Not the most comfortable place but very old with lots of character.
Today we went to Tampa and got Shad's school uniforms. He has grown so much. We also went to Chick Fil A. A lady came up to me almost in tears and was so sweet about Sarah....she didn't really ask any questions she just commented on me and Sarah interacting...it was so sweet. When we walked in CFA, Sam started dancing:) he loves it!
Then we drove down to Brandon to pick up Selah's meds. We have to go to this one pharmacy Bill's that can do the compounding. They are great folks. During our ride down I-75 we see helicopters everywhere, one was hovering over the exit onto Hwy 60...I find out later there was a terrible accident in that area including several cars/trucks. Pray for those involved!
Selah has had a good weekend. She has been calm. Last night we got up at 3 am to take care of her but she was sleeping so soundly we didn't bother her and waited till 5 am to change her. I love when she sleeps straight through the night and is so peaceful.
Monday we will have Bay News 9 coming to interview us about our insurance issue. I'm looking forward to it and am thankful to find a station that was interested in what is going on with our fight!!!!
Hope you all are having a good weekend!
Please remember to pray for Selah!!
Crazy! We have overgrowth problems in Seattle too, but not like that!
ReplyDeleteJust catching up on your blog again, sorry for the hiatus. Our Z had surgery July 2 and we are finally catching our breath a bit. :)
You are still on my thoughts and in my prayers! Hugs!
Love Love all the greenery!! My kids and I were all amazed with all the trees and foliage in Florida. Everything is just so much more vibrant and colorful than here in Illinois.
ReplyDeleteThe only thing I don't like about elephant ears...tend to find black widows/eggs down near the base/roots. So make sure you all are wearing gloves when gardening around them! We had a scare last month, my daughter got bit and thought it was a widow--she' s extra careful now!
