May News #4 - flowers and masks


Hello everyone 

If you want to make the simplest mask I’ve seen,  watch this video 

Below are small child size ones 



Some very lawyer-ish masks for my son.  He wanted them all solid navy so I added a tiny tag of twill tape to the inside so he can tell which side has been facing out and which side goes on his face.  




Our home so looks so happy with all the spring flowers blooming.  Many of them are perennials my husband bought on clearance at Lowe’s in recent years.  



The bushes with white flowers are Mock Orange and I think they’re so pretty.  



The dianthus came back so big and full this spring -they are the big pink and red clumps.  


Below is a peony that only had one bloom last year.  This year it had more than a dozen buds.  


 

Right by our front door - did  you notice in these photos all our windows were open?  It was breezy and mid-60s yesterday so I opened all our windows and gave the house a good airing out.  




We had a redwood picnic table that was looking so weathered and not in a good way.  
So my husband turned it into a 12 foot planter that fits perfectly where the patio ends and before the fence.  
Then he planted it with more assorted plants from Lowe’s 










And a little funny thing
3 of our grandchildren were here yesterday while their mom had a doctor appointment. 
They were so happy to be here and acted so nice. 
Toward the end of the visit, Elizabeth and JJ were crafting but Elizabeth wasn’t happy that JJ was kind of copying her.  
I told her she was being kind of grouchy.
JJ said "maybe she needs a nap”



Hope you are all well
