What a glorious Monday morning it is here in Central New York State. It
couldn't be better! We had a busy weekend, with our annual Fireworks
BBQ at the old house...this time Drew & Maria got to host, but we
helped alot! They found out very quickly how much work it takes to put
on a big bash! Fun was had by all, finished off with a nice fireworks
display in town.  |
| Drew now inherits the grilling chores..... |
 |
| ...while Mr. Whimzies relaxes with his buddy, Mike. |
 |
| Jake hammin' it up for the camera |
 |
| Cake, pool....who could ask for anything more! |
Although I knew already, Drew & Maria announced at the party that they are expecting a Baby in December...this is such welcome news, since their miscarriage last Fall....please pray for her and our grandbaby...that things go smoothly this time!
Whoo-hoo Mister Whimzie is taking the week off, so I have lots of company here at Ravenwood. We started the day off with coffee on the porch. We're planning to get some projects done, relax and have fun with Jake...with a couple of mini side trips here and there. We'll be taking a trip to visit Amish country near Lancaster, PA in August. Wednesday we're planning another BBQ with family and friends here.
Let's hope and pray that all the terrible weather and fires calm down....sending prayers to all who have been affected...especially our blogging friends!
Wishing you blessings on your day!
Looks like a wonderful picnic gathering! And you're so right about 'discovering' how much goes into hosting a gathering ~ I remember my first Thanksgiving (oh my! lol)
ReplyDeleteCake + pool = Bliss (IMO) lol
Will be holding close best of wishes and hopes for Drew and Maria....
Have a wonderful week with Mr W ~ shared coffee on the porch is one of the best ways to begin a day.
