Peonies In Bloom

 Our weather has been really nice, but rainy. The peonies were on the cusp of blooming all week and then Friday, with warmer weather, they burst open wide!

We cut the blooming peonies and brought them inside. The scent is so amazing, and there are more peonies to bloom still, including my pink Sarah Bernhardt's. 

I'm going to work on getting some photos of my roses. They are all starting to bloom, too! 

Information Friday

 

It's our daughter Rachel and SIL Weston's 5th wedding anniversary! This is my favorite photo from their wedding day!

What a huge week DJT has had and it actually had been a big weekend, too!

After this speech, I've been praying for Trump even more. The neocons and nation builders don't like that he is changing the system they set up to control nations and enrich themselves!

It's been a great personal week for DJT also! Tiffany had her baby and he's headed to meet his new grandson!

James Comey, Trump hater and former FBI director, posted this yesterday on his Instagram. Not surprised after Trump's week in the Middle East, but I'm angry about it.

When people started sharing it on social media and he started to take  some heat for it, he posted the message below. No body is buying what he's trying to sell here as he is claiming that he former head of the FBI and a law enforcement officer who went after organized crime, didn't know that to "86" someone meant to kill them?

He has since deleted his IG account.

The DNI Tulsi Gabbard isn't having it!

Kristie Noem is on it too!

Then this guy posts this.

Will they be charged with inciting an attempt on the Presidents life? You can read more about Ed Krassenstein {here}.

Someone I follow in IG said she saw a bumper sticker on a minivan in N. Virginia, with kids in the van, that had those same numbers on it!

These are people advocating for his assassination! I did not like B*den and thought he was bad for our country, but I NEVER wanted him to be killed!

While the deep state (dems and repubs) cry and try to block Trump's mandate from the people to make America great again this is what DJT accomplished this week!

In other news - 

Have you seen this baby trend? This one is from Hillary Clinton and DJT's debate back in 2016!

Have a great weekend!

Weekend

 

Tim took this quick photo after lunch yesterday. Kenny wasn't having any of it, some eyes are closed, I was just done saying something. He stands there with the phone and you never know when or what he's getting a photo of! This was pretty good! Ha ha!

The time together was great. Dad always talks about mom being the matriarch. She hates that, but it's true. If it wasn't for her, none of these people would be in our family!

I'm grateful for these people who call me mom/grandma, and missed those who were not here. I've been shaped by my mistakes, and successes as a mother. It's not always pretty when imperfect people are given such noble task. I learned as I went, made changes as I grew, and walked in the light that I had. 

I made my chicken salad on brioche rolls, mom made pasta salad, Rachel brought a green salad, Sarah brought a fruit tray, and Kay brought the strawberries for dessert!

The weather was lovely. We sat outside, the kids played at the swings, Tim and Nate vacuumed the pool. Sarah and Dave headed to his family's house. 

We finished our required school days last week. Kamryn needs to do some testing still, but I'm always amazed that we made it through another year! This was my 31st year homeschooling. This next year we'll add Kaidence and Kamryn will be doing high school! Wow!

I hope you had a good weekend.

Coming soon! I think these peonies will bloom this week! Today is dark and rainy and seems as if it will be that way most of the day. I need to run out to pick up a grocery order, then I'll be home most of the day. 

Some weeks there is so much news. A new pope, a big trade agreement with the UK, a new national day to recognize the end of WWII in Europe. 

There are a lot of naysayers out there, a ton of lying, and we must remember that this is a spiritual battle.

I saw this yesterday and thought it was so true. 

I remember the days that we believed the media was telling us the truth. Now we know they are a propaganda arm of the deep state globalists.

Scott Bessent has been fantastic. 

This I found to be an excellent understanding of what is happening around the world with this mass migration and illegal migration.

"No one is trying to multiculturalize Somalia." 

Boom!

I hope you all have a great weekend! 

A Fun Day Out

 Yesterday, besides being Cinco de Mayo, was my dad's birthday. He's 86 now. Tim and I decided a week ago that it was the perfect day to take my parents on a road trip to Cape May, New Jersey, and it was.

A bit of drizzle to start the day but then the sun broke through the clouds and it was lovely.

After we ate lunch at a Mexican restaurant, of course, we found a park at the waterfront and enjoyed the sun, watched some dolphins, and the Cape May-Lewes ferry come in.

It was a really nice day.

We try to get out for a road trip once every few months, mostly they are day trips but earlier this year we went to Nashville and saw our new grandbaby and my parents 15th great grand. Last autumn we went to the Poconos and did the Fall Foliage train ride out of Jim Thorpe.

With a wedding in August, we'll see if we can fit a trip in the summer.

It's a lot of fun, and they enjoy getting to see new things. So do I!

We are probably 3-4 weeks out on local strawberries, but these brought in from the Carolinas are a great substitute. Deep red and flavorful all the way through! We are having friends over for dinner and I am making sweet scones and cut up strawberries with cream for dessert!

What a great 100 days! I keep saying to Tim that I can't remember when I've seen Cabinet Secretaries so excited about their work, and enjoying working together to Make America Great Again!

This was an interesting update during the Cabinet meeting from RFKjr.

Did you hear what he said? The HHS was the middleman for child s*x trafficking and slavery during the Biden Administration. Who is going to be held responsible for this?

Listen to Tulsi Gabbard in her interview with Megyn Kelly this week. They are busy investigating many things, and I'm hopeful they are investigating what RFKjr was speaking about.

Why are so many famous or people in politics involved with kids?

Another judge...

Another judge interfering with ICE and BP!

Stephen Miller this week to the media!

This is encouraging to me!

Don't let anyone make you discouraged. There is a lot of work to do, and we can pray about all of it, but there are things being done behind the scenes! The work of restoration will take years, but we have made a great start!

Off to make scones! Have a happy weekend, friends!
