I love your hollyhocks! My sister in Sun City has a ton of lemons and oranges. Let me know if you want me to get some from her for you.

Have you seen Fixer Upper on HGTV? I love her decorating style! Wish I could have them come and remodel a house for us.

Praying for your brother, you, Randy, your health and family.

Love and miss you friend!

Thank goodness I was sitting down while I read this post. It completely exhausted me all that you are enjoying and loving! :)
The best part was learning about Rehab Addict on Netflix. It's now in my que. :)
