Woke to a rainy morning. There is a high chance of rain until noon, then still a chance but much less of one until mid afternoon. We have had so much rain. May was the heaviest month with over 9 inches! The gardens and farm fields love it, though I think the corn went in later than normal.
I was hoping to pot up my deck flowers for summer today. We went to a local garden center on Saturday and they already had their annuals on clearance sale! Glad I got a chance to get deep red petunias and white petunias for the deck rail planters, and I got some pretty zinnias for my cement planters that go in the front garden. I'm trying to get that all done and set up before Sarah's bridal shower in July! It's about a month away but its moving fast now!
Yesterday we celebrated our dads in the family, and we celebrated Kamryn who turned 15!
She's petite and its easy to forget she's not a little girl anymore! She wanted Lemon Cake so I made her one and some cupcakes with my Lemon Buttercream frosting! Delish!
How have your summers been? Have you had a lot of rain this year? What about summer temperatures? Overall we've been pretty cool. We've had a few days here and there of hot weather - Nate and the girls swam one day last week - but mostly mild temps and grey skies!

Happy birthday to Kamryn! And here's to warmer swimming days! :)
This has been one of the rainiest springs we've had here. Everything is lush and green. Our lakes and ponds are full, which is good, because we are getting into the hotter, drier part of the year. Hoping we've had enough rain to get us through!
It's been raining here, too. I miss the sun! Happy Birthday to your sweet granddaughter...15 is a big birthday!!
We have had rain, yes, but also so many overcast days with no rain. Sunny days have been scarce!
Happy birthday to Kamryn! (What?! Fifteen?!) Does anyone else think that Kamryn looks like her Aunt Emma?
Kamryn was a little girl when I started to follow you....hard to believe she's 15!! And, she could be one of your children! She looks so much like your girls!!
(I agree with Cheryl)
