We saw this in the front yard of a house nearby.
They had a white board where you could write down the names of those who should be remembered.
And guess where this was. Right in the middle of the Lowe's parking lot! How great was that!

For the purse giveaway, I put all the names in a cup and drew one without looking. The winner is Ann, at "Ann's Snap Edit Scrap". Ann, send me your address and I will mail you the purse. Congratulations!
I have collected purses for as long as I can remember, and I have gotten a few too many. So I decided to give this one away. I have never used it, it is made by Longaberger (the basket people). This giveaway is only open to my followers.
If you want it, just leave me a comment. I will write your names on pieces of paper and draw one in a few days. I will announce the winner on this blog, and will be asking them to give me their address.
It is quite small! 8" high and 11 1/2" wide. Here it is with my hand for perspective. Good luck!
Come with me and look at the beautiful, fluffy white Peonies.
“White is
not a mere absence of color; it is a shining and affirmative thing, as fierce
as red, as definite as black. God paints in many colors; but He never paints so
gorgeously, I had almost said so gaudily, as when He paints in white.”

Coming into the city of Crozet, one of the first things you see is this building.
Going into the parking lot and looking at the bottom of it, this is the rest.
Also, our son and family just went strawberry picking!
Who is playing this piano, and why?
It is this lady; Kay. I could not get her last name.
Kay is 85 years young, and is the oldest person ever to graduate from Virginia Tech College. She is Suma Cum Laude with honors in music.
Her husband drives her to and from class every day.
I saw this on the news and took the photos from the T.V. she has more energy than me!

We had a nice Mother's Day! The family came over. Here I am with our son Mike.
And here are the three girls with me.
Jazz had on the cutest shoes. She told me they got them at Goodwill.
The two youngest girls have been taking tennis lessons. Since Phil has not been able to play anymore due to his arthritis, he gave them his racquets and tennis bags. I must admit this was a sad moment for me. Phil always loved to play and has won many trophies. The end of an era I guess.
A rare photo of all three girls on their devices at the same time!
They brought me this huge hanging flower basket, so beautiful!
