Family Fun and the Light vs Lighthouse

My niece Diana and her family came to visit last weekend and it was so lovely to see them. Ethan is offering a push to Grandma Pat and Ella complete with wagon still in hand. :)

Ella curled up on Grandma Pat's lap and the breeze and swinging was just too much for her to fight the sleep factor. It was a lovely, lovely afternoon.

Ok, this is just too precious. Mom told me that she hopes that I get to have this same wonderful experience of cuddling my great grandchild someday. I hope to be that lucky too. Just imagine this day...73 degrees a soft gentle breeze and a swing that hugs you both. Life is good.

We got to meet little sister Elise and she is so sweet. Big brown eyes that melt your heart and a smile that says I love you. Diana and Jeremy you are very blessed indeed, thanks for coming to visit we love seeing your beautiful family.

Front yard light or is that the lighthouse? First step in the making of a monument...a pad (as seen before on the blog), electric supply and LOTS of strength to lift these blocks. Just how high should it be and will the light be too big?

Let's put the top on and see how it is looking so far and if we need to go a bit higher. Yep, just another course of block should do it.

There you go! All done and it looks great Jim. Now all the folks that visit will be able to find their way out to their car. :) Good job darlin'

Peter and I went out to the garden and came back with some goodies...yum yum. The cherry tomatoes are so sweet!

A nice batch of corn relish ready for the winter months...
