A Simple SundaySix

I have had a lovely week full of smiles.

We worked in the temple two days again this week instead of one.

I got to spend a few days with my good friend, Sil

I finished the two little dresses I was working on.

I actually got around to doing a mid-week post. (A big effort for me.)

We had dinner with Mindy and Family twice instead of once this week.

I got to keep Austin and extra night and day, Fri. night and Sat.

Etc. Etc.

Smiles smiles smiles

...

However, since my Wednesday post was so long....it was a great story.... read it if you haven't yet because it is a sweet story with great advice.... but it is quite long...

I am making this my simple Sunday Six....Mostly pictures...little dialog
...

Since I was away from home a lot last week I had much to do when I returned.

I was very busy yesterday and really needed help getting everything done.

My plea for assistance was answered.....by Austin... and thus many smiles were generated.

I think the reasons for smiles are self evident and will need very little explanation.

Austin helped me make friendship bread.

Friendship bread is made from a "starter". (You can see a bag of the starter on the cabinet.)
I had starter that needed to be mixed into bread.
Austin helped me and it is delicious.
If you want the recipe let me know..... Yummy stuff....eating it makes John smile too.
...
After making our bread we headed out to the patios.
It was a warm 85 degrees here....

(Upps... I shouldn't tell Jan... she got caught in a blizzard in Colorado ... her flight was cancelled and she missed the wedding she wanted to attend at Kris's house ... sorry.)

I got help hanging clothes....

...And sweeping up the leaves


I got lots of help watering my thirsty plants

My plant bunny badly needs a trim but that will wait until another day.
For yesterday she was happy just getting a drink of water.

and so were the other plants around the patios.
Austin watered me and himself too.... but hey... it was warm... no harm done... but notice he did have three changes of shirts in one day.

Heidi got brushed.

In the warm weather she sheds a lot. She really needed brushing.

Thanks Austin
...

Then car got washed...

... and polished...

in time for a lovely drive....
before Austin hurried off to help Grampy with his chores.

Austin helped Grampy mow the grass.

It was a wonderful, busy Saturday...full of smiles

We were pooped at the end of the day... We both crashed before we finished reading our story books....but we were still smiling in our dreams.

As my friend Marlene would say... I hope you have a blessed week ahead.

Love, Grammy Lura
