Can't believe I haven't posted since Tuesday - wow I've been a little down on the blogging thing & I'm sorrrrrry.  We've just been busy with things arounds the house and our gym/racquetball cook-out yesterday.  We had super weather and fantastic Delmonico steaks - WOW what a cook my sweetie is.  Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the steaks and chicken that Patrick made he has his act together with the grill, nice charred outside and done to your choice on the inside.  Food, drinks, pool, and socializing was wonderful.  Thanks to everyone that came out and enjoyed the feast we look forward to having another one soon!!

Today has been a light clean-up day outside porch, grill, etc.  I did most of the inside clean-up yesterday after the cook-out and there really wasn't much to do.  We stayed mainly inside since it was so hot outside but regardless it was WONDERFUL.  We plan on enjoying our steak tonight believe it or not we didn't feel like eating last night so we're waiting to enjoy it with Dad this evening.

Garden is doing super, we pulled three "large" squash which I'm certain Patrick will post the pictures soon.  In two days time we actually let them get toooooo large and I understand they have far to many seeds when they get that big so it looks like I have the starting of "gourds" for fall.  It really doesn't matter because we probably have 50 new ones on the plants we now know to watch them closely because they grew to large to quickly.  Small tomatoes & peppers on the plans also can't wait until they get larger & start to ripen. 

I think I mentioned that we bought a tiller for the big tractor so it looks like our winter garden will be larger and have more things in it.  It is fascinating watching the plants grow & ripen.  Never thought we'd be the farming team and Dad loves the input that he can offer:):)

Well, I think I'll close & fix something to drink.  Promise to blog again tomorrow or later this evening.  Have a super Sunday - enjoy the end of the weekend.  Always remember we love & miss everyone.

Hugs & Kisses,

Patty
