Friends,
We are still without Ben and the women. Thomas has worked the last two days and I worked yesterday. So how do you think Matthew, Nick, Anthony and Jonathan did all by themselves? They did great!! Let's take a look at the last two days.
Nana has been invited to lunch. She also does our Friday singing lessons. Let's throw some spicy shrimp on the barbi. The date on Jonathan's pictures is dd mm yy. His clock might be a little off.
Nick loaded these little beauties up with all kinds of peppers and cayenne. Aye Caramba!!
This was the day that the propane tank decided to go dry. Camp stove to the rescue!
Everything is ready for Nana's arrival.***
Let's jump to Saturday morning.
Donuts made from scratch!! Don't play with your food Matthew.
Done to perfection. The foil makes clean up a snap.
Just like Krispy-Creme!!
The cats are glad I'm home. It's been a little chilly these past few days and a car hood is a great place to warm up.
Matthew and Anthony are working hard to expand the orchard. These nasty bushes serve no purpose and they have to go.
The back fence was in pretty bad shape, but it's looking better now. The sheep won't be visiting the neighbor anymore.
Lunch was left over lasagna. The rice noodles kinda busted up, but they still taste great.
The RV was past due for an oil change. Anthony is learning how it's done, much to Nicks amusement.
Texas tea.
Pizza for dinner, also from scratch.
Masters at work. Yum!!
These guys won't have any trouble leaving the nest. They are dialed in!!
Church clothes are prepared for tomorrow. Tonight's devotional reading was 1 Cor. 10:13 and Psalm 119: 1-16. They tie in very nicely with the reading from Galatians.
A little wood to keep things warm for the night, and we're off to bed.
Living without a big chunk of the family is okay for a while, and we manage as best we can (as this picture will attest). But we don't want to live this way permanently. Come home family!!be safe,
Hec @ 19

Are we having donuts for breakfast on Wednesday?
Looks great guys. You realize I am expecting this much diligence when I'm home as well.
Love all y'all and miss you dearly.
Love & Blessings, Mom
Oooo... those donuts look good!! :D
*laughs* I wouldn't complain if the date on the camera was the real date... ;)
Very impressive, y'all! The table was even set for lunch! I'm sure she enjoyed that.
Okay, now I am in the mood for doughnuts! And our Krispy Kreme closed!! :( I guess we should just make our own...maybe Beignets will suffice.
Did the new trees get put in the orchard? How long will it take until the pomegranate tree starts producing fruit?
Texas tea? Looks a lot like our coffee every morning. :)
AND pizza?!!? Wow, y'all are amazing! You can come over to my house when you feel like cooking like that! :)
TFM,
I had to Google "floral swag". The horse and sheep eat all but the smallest flowers, making the swag might be problematic, but I'll give it a try.
Ask Ben about the apple trees, he knows more about that than i do.
Yep, TJ tortillas. I will withhold judgment until yours have been evaluated.
Anton isn't sure what he's making. I believe that it is wolf's clothing for our sheep.
Thank you for explaining the crying face; I thought it was drooling.
Mrs. R,
The days have been productive, but the agenda has been "guy driven".
Emil,
Yeeesss, they WERE good!
TFM,
I understand the date reference. Two blinks, and it will happen.
Having never had a beignet leaves me unqualified to respond. Add them to the list, please.
All tees are in. Some fruit in two to three years, more later.
The pizza is very tasty, we will reciprocate.
**see you soon**
Oooh - those grilled shrimp look scrumptulous! *sigh* Be you couldn't do that grilling today! ;-) Has the snow melted?
We sure did enjoy your family. Can't wait to see ALL of you in May!
