Physical Theropy Is OVER!!!

YAY!!! I am finished with PT. After two days a week for a month, I can now touch my toes without any pain. I am always going to have some pain due to the scoliosis, but I have started to do pilates to help strengthen my core muscles in that area. Also, hopefully it will help me shed some more of this weight off of me. But we'll see. Stress has really put the pounds on, but I know that I'll be stressing until Ryan finds another job.

Father's Day Weekend


We went down to BFT this weekend. We celebrated Brittany and JP's birthdays and Father's Day Saturday. Ryan's mom rented a 28ft water slide for the celebration. Then on Sunday we left their house and drove up to Pomaria to have dinner with Gram and Pop. It was a good weekend. Here are the videos of the kids coming down the slide.

Summer Flowers

Seems like we have had alot of rain in the past two weeks. I think we had a shower at least once a day. And due to all the rain, my Hydrangea's and Day Lilies have really put out the blooms. Just wanted to show them off a bit. Can't wait for my summer Iris' to bloom.

The hydrangeas are Mophead (big Leaf) Nikko Blues. I'm getting the Purple and Pinks in the second bush, because the sun is taking the aluminum out of the soil. Can't make up my mind whether I want to add wood ashes to the soil to get the blue back in that part of the bush or not.






Here are my Day Lilies. I have them on the left side of the house along the fence line. It gets alot of sun, but they are shaded for the most of the hotter part of the afternoon.Star Dream
