Some of you may have heard of how passionate I am about yard work, I hate it with a passion. This pandemic thing has kind of trapped people at home so I decided to try to turn my passion for yard work around. I dug up Deanie's garden, with love, mowed the lawn and raked up the leaves, with love, and even decided to help her with the garden. Deanie had to teach me, I learned a lot. There are more than one kind of tomatoes, who knew. Then she told me about carrots, "shut the front door!" Then she pointed out there's more than one kind of everything, " what the Friday!" Last fall we took a fir tree out of the front yard and it left half the yard bare, she wanted to plant potatoes. Once again, with love, I dug it up for her and we planted 125 potato plants, yes, of course there's more than one type of those as well. The other day I asked when we would start seeing the potatoes, you know what she told me, I have to dig them out of the ground.
I hate yard work with a passion.
Have a great day

Dear Loved,
We must be related...........I also hate yard work with a passion. But I do love to see Dean's beautiful backyard. It almost makes me wish I enjoyed gardening, if I could get the same results. However I seem to have been born with a brown thumb. That has given me a huge appreciation for gorgeous gardens!
Love your storytelling. LOL. Laughter is good for the mind, body, and spirit.
Love,
ME

🎁HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AMY🛍!
Thirty-two looks great on you!🙋♀️ Your birthday is already coming up to noon in Ontario 🌎 and our BC celebration is just three hours behind yours.⏰ It’s a cool summer morning here as we send warm greetings to you across the miles🍑.
🔥We always like the idea of a Sunday birthday providing a whole day for the celebrant🎂 to take time off for relaxation and recreation🚶♀️. This year it has sometimes been difficult to distinguish Sunday from any other day of the week🗓. We have not heard how you have been personally affected by pandemic restrictions🚫 but we can guess that you’ve been experiencing many of the same limitations as the rest of us.😷
👣In any case, we like to think that you can make this July 2020 birthday your own to enjoy and remember.🏡 We join family and friends 💕in wishing you a unique and wonderful day that is a true celebration of LIFE and of YOU at 32. 🔮 Cheers!🍷🍷
💌Lots of love,
Louise and David

🍑Our greetings are being sent from Peachland this morning. 🌎We are usually in St. Andrews at this time of year where we have recalled your long-ago visit to Scotland🏡 and have happily toasted good times together there🚗.

😷Even in pandemic times, we imagine that you and Christine will pay your seventy-eighth birthday🎂 the attention to detail that you give to all special occasions in your lives🗓. You have a way of honouring such days🛍 so that the memory of them is as delightful as the very moment of celebration⏳. We hope that’s true of this birthday, too🔮.
👩❤️👨Here’s to an awesome date at 78. Cheers!🍷🍷

Ron thanks you for your lovely birthday greeting Louise and Dave. I have printed it and placed it with his other birthday cards. We will have our own little "bubble" celebration with our Regina children after supper tonight.
Of course, in the true nature of his punster brain he said, "78 Cheers! They're gonna be smashed!"
I hope you had at least 2 pieces of cake last night.
Love, (-:hristine & Ron
😎You are welcome, Ron.🎂We didn’t get smashed but happily went to double the trouble to toast you on your 78th birthday🕺.
