Summer Fruit Goodness!

Summer Fresh Fruit Smoothies!

I've decided to make
fresh fruit smoothies
every morning this summer...

With my favourite hot tea!
*Tea company is from Hawaii*
YUM!

Summer Days & Nights



At the very start of summer season I was able to sit out
on the patio for breakfast!

The cool breeze allowed for a very pleasant morning ritual
of coffee, fruit and lots of water!


  Once warmer days began, 
I could only sit on patio during the evening.

However,
with the soft light of candles 
and 'Pinky' by my side
summer evenings have been
a steady joy!

*Pinky is my soprano Ukulele, btw :)

A Little Extra Crochet...just in case!




I found this cute doll for my grand daughter
however,
she had no panties!
So I crocheted her a yellow pair...

Then I realised she needed a pair of shorts
So I crocheted her a pair of lavender ones...





I then remembered that my daughter
told me
my grand daughter liked to
put her babies down for naps
so I crocheted a wee blanket and pillow...



I love how I simply intended to
send this wee dolly to my grand daughter
but quickly realised
I needed to
create a few
'extras'
just in case.

Where Do They Get That From?

                       At a young age I learned that laughter promoted good health!

Later in my late teens, 
I lost my father.

Quickly, 
I adopted a healthier life style that involved 
good eating, aerobic exercises, yoga, meditation
AND...

Silliness! 

Lots of it!


I'm happy that not only did this make me happy, 
but others as well.

Influencing my own two kids.


  





My kids on Mother's Day several years back.
I simply wished for a nice picture of all three of us.
Instead I got the BEST pictures/selfies EVER...
I remember saying
"oh please smile you two"



       
And I just decided to join in!

I LOVE THESE PICTURES
And Memories!

As i'm getting older
I look back at these moments
and find such joy in remembering just how
blissful our days were
 filled with laughter and so much love!




And now,

as a
 Grandmother

My children are happy adults and embrace silliness.

BUT
The one thing
(well two actually)
things that make my heart sore...
knowing (and seeing)
this silliness legacy
passed along to my grandkids!!


And even when apps aren't used, there is silliness!!!



My grand son sporting a nice stash and beard!




My grandson in the 'infant'
stage of
stash and beard!





My grand daughter
I love that she (my daughter)
uses these silly apps with funny faces..

Quiet Creative Moments

It's in these early morning hours,
enjoying a treat from my son & daughter-in-law
(last of my Mother's Day goodies)
that I'm at my most creative.
Feeling very blissful and grateful!
