Happy Hot Humpday!

If you could see my face right now, you would see I am glowing.. which means it is going to be HOT here in West Texas today! I am obsessed (big time) with hot weather! The hotter, the better and my weather alert says the high is 99 degrees today! Hallelujah!

It took me two long evenings of working on the flowerbeds to get them to my standard. I am not a gardener in any way at all. I was almost clueless while I was working. Since we have lived here (two years in May) the flowerbed in front of our awesome front porch has been just full of grass and monkey grass. So, it took me a whole afternoon just to dig all the monkey grass out (left enough to make a cute border) and then the next day I got to actually plant the flowers. Gardening is so cheap.. why didn't someone tell me?! Anyways, I have plans to go back in a couple days and fill in different flowers (or maybe small plants) between these flowers but I am proud of my start on this project. We did our Earth day project a day early :)


I got an update from Colleen about little Ryder, who I asked prayers for earlier this week. Ryder's Cystic Fibrosis test came back clear which is great. So, they are actually on their way to Lubbock right now to a Gastrointestinal specialist to check for any blockages or anything like that. She did say that his first and second round of tests showed that his thyroid levels are high so it is possible he may be diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, which is controllable by meds. Hyperthyroidism would actually be one of the better diagnoses so continue to pray that the results show something as simple as that. I know Colleen appreciates the prayers and thoughts. Leave me a comment to say you are praying so she can see them when she checks my blog!
Go outside today and soak up some heat!
