Hello! Happy first day of June! I hope you all are doing well. In the last month and a half we have finished up with Boy Scouts, Faith Keepers, Spanish and Creative Writing classes. We are having temperatures in the high 90's, so summer is definitely here!
We had friends and family over for Memorial day. In the morning I went to the grocery store for a few things and found these beautiful peonies. They were completely closed, but within a few hours had bloomed.
Phillip got a new grill for his birthday/early Father's Day, so he grilled burgers, hot dogs, and chicken. I made potato salad, macaroni salad, and we also had artichoke dip, chips and humus, and watermelon.
For dessert, we had strawberry and blueberry shortcake and I also made these fun jello cups for the kids.
Thank you for stopping by for a visit, I've missed visiting with you!

Great post, and I'm so glad you are back! (I'm the fellow North Texan who emailed you not long ago.) I always enjoy reading your blog and seeing photos of your creations. It sounds like you had a nice holiday weekend!
Welcome back, Kelli!! Glad you had a blessed holiday! And I know how good it feels to finish up some things! We are schooling through the summer, though, since my appendectomy and Drs. appts. have skewed our schedule! No biggy...we almost prefer it!
Have a glorious week!!

Wow, your maceroni salad looks really good. Forget the kids...the little jello cups look good enough for the adults to eat! I just happened to come across your blog and thought I leave a comment.
Hi Kelli!

Yay!! Glad you had a nice "break", but I am so glad you are back! I thought about you as I was getting my patriotic decorations ready for Memorial Day, Flag Day, and OF COURSE, Fourth of July. Welcome Back!!
Hi, you're back !!!!
I love the flowers. I've got a bush in my front garden, but the buds are still closed. There are buds in that bush for the first time since I planted it. I can hardly wait for it to bloom.
The food looks fantastic. Happy birthday to your husband !!!
Warm Welcome back!! Your macaroni salad looks so yummy.
Those jello cups look so perfect for a hot day! I'll have to make them soon!
