  4. 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!
