June showers bring what?

Yellow plants, for what I can see right now...We're in our annual 'no one really wants summer and sunshine' month here in Montana...Cold, rain and so disappointing after a long and cold winter.  Hoping the weatherperson is right and that we will actually see the 80 degree weather this weekend.

Dizzy finished her softball season.  It was not the winning season she hoped for, but she had a great time and is already talking about next season and whether or not she wants to 'redraft' or stay on the same team.  Should be interesting to see what she decides to do.

Tater is starting her season.  She absolutely loves it. This little girl is disappointed every day when she can't go to practice and see her team.  She's the kind of kid I wanted when I was coaching years ago!
Her room cleaning and re-organizing option isn't going as well as the reading and softball parts of the summer...She thinks cleaning out her closet means she can put it all in a tub next to her door and the closet is cleaner...

We did get her clothes contained to her dresser again, except for her sweatshirts. It's a slow process!

Dizzy's room project isn't going well either.  She got the cleaning part of it down, but the keeping it clean (and making her bed everyday--note Tater's above is made) isn't.
The biggest issue is the pile next to her door (bottom right-hand corner) that grows into her doorway.  Makes it tough for any of us to get into her room, but she's fine with that.  Oh, the pre-teen age years have been a lot of fun (NOT!).  This is going to be an adventure.

I am lost without my Tigger cat.  We all miss her dreadfully and are looking to find another kitten to fill our home and hearts.  I can't sit and watch television without an ache in my heart, missing my little friend who would snuggle with me while we watched.  Of course, I'm sure the new additions will decide not to want to sit with me, but they'd still be around.

Big changes are coming for our family in July.  Wait and see.  I'll post pictures of the garden next week when it isn't so cold outside (I'm a wimp and staying inside where it is marginally warmer--we shut our heat off a month ago and I'm trying not to turn it back on).  My hopes are that the real heat doesn't hit until after my blue flowers bloom in my front bed.  Our air conditioner sits right above it and tends to droop some of the plants...

Be Happy! Be Healthy! Be sure to smile some today!
