Vacations; A flower basket we picked up at a nursery at the Poconos

We picked this basket up at a nursery at the Poconos.  It's going to replace one we already have.  The one we have has yellow flowers and we will give that one to our daughter Marinda.

Whenever my husband and I want to get away just for one night we go to the Pocono Mountains.

Olivia is growing up.  She goes in the pool now without her swimmies or vest.  An adult is always with her though.

Frankie does not like a sloppy yard and it shows in our yard.  He does a great job of taking care of everything.  He loves to keep the little tree in front round and the bushes trimmed and everything mostly weeded and the grass cut.  What would I do without him?

Gardening; Bumper crop

Copyright by The Old School Housewife
We got a bumper crop of peppers this year.  We did use a different fertilizer.  I don't know if that did it, but other years we never got this many peppers or this big.  Whatever the reason, we are thankful.  There will be stuffed peppers on tomorrow's menu.
