—</strong><strong>Full Beaver Moon: </strong>At this point of the year, it's
time to set beaver traps before the swamps freeze to ensure a supply of warm
winter furs. Another interpretation suggests that the name Beaver Full Moon came
from the fact that the beavers are now active in their preparation for winter.
It's also called the Frosty Moon. <i>www.space.com</i></span>Andrew and Jarrett's Momhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14896155470205636393noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898345202737645310.post-6764053100241746322013-11-11T06:43:00.000-06:002013-11-11T06:43:04.423-06:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b>Monday, July 15, 2013 - </b>On Friday, I went into town and took along my camera so I could take pictures of the boys' trees. It's kind of fun that you can see Andrew's tree in Jarrett's picture. Those trees are doing so well. They make me happy to see something alive in the cemetery. see ya, djb</div>

<b>Sunday, June 23, 2013 - </b>When I stopped by to add the patriotic decorations on the shepherd's hook, I was so surprised to see that the Stella d'oro lilies had started blooming. It's hard to see the perennial geranium flowers because the sun was shining so brightly. But, it looks very nice. God bless Andrew. God bless Jarrett. love you guys, mom</div>

Here's a side view of the stargazer flower pot full of stargazers. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Friday, June 14, 2013 - </b>This flower pot full of the most gorgeous stargazers ever is about 3 and a half feet tall. It is just spectacular. I'm still waiting for the final bloom to open. It's in the upper right part of the photo and looks whitish. Yeah, I'll take a picture of it. haha, djb</div>

This is the planter I put together with flowers I bought from Shawna at Jewel in Batavia.<br />
<b>Monday, June 10, 2013 - </b>This is just the beginning stage of this planter -- I just put them all together last week. Once the sun comes out and shines, all those pretty flowers will grow so big. Can't wait....for the sun. Only 11 more days until SUMMER.

Here's a picture I took this morning of the swimming pool not looking green or brown!<br />
<b>Thursday, June 6, 2013 - </b>You can't really see it, but the rain is slowly and gently falling into the pool. That's nice, then I don't have to put iron-laden well water in there. haha Maybe one of these days, we'll actually get to SWIM in it. oh boy! see ya later, djbAndrew and Jarrett's Momhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14896155470205636393noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898345202737645310.post-27833418505568146752013-05-31T14:21:00.000-05:002013-05-31T14:22:47.250-05:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This pink columbine has been living in the same spot since before the boys died.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Friday, May 31, 2013 - </b>This is a close-up of the pink columbine that lives in a space between the asphalt and the shed. Every year it comes up and blooms. It proves the saying that a determined flower will bloom. Or does that saying say, "bloom where you're planted." Except I didn't plant this flower, one of the seeds blew into a crevice and decided to grow there. I love it. later, djb </div>

<b> Andrew & Jarrett's gravestone on May 8, 2013</b></div>
<b>Thursday, May 23, 2013 - </b>I wanted to get a picture of Andrew and Jarrett's gravestone while the daffodils were blooming. I added the colorful bouquets of silk flowers to keep the daffys company. And as you can see, I left the photo taped on the stone because I like to see their faces when I go in there. God bless the saintly boys, djb<br />

This is what the middle flower bed looks like now. You can see Jarrett's candle.<br />
<b>Sunday, April 28, 2013 - </b>I noticed that the last picture I put on the boys' blogger blog was of the sodden yard. Ten days later, this is what it looks like. The grass in the front yard isn't particularly lush yet. Maybe some day??? At least the daffodils are blooming. I'm thinking this bed desperately needs some mulch. I did clean out a lot of the debris yesterday because we had NO rain. ~djb<br />

Here's a photo of the front yard with lots of puddles of rain water. The flowers are wondering when spring is going to begin. At least, it isn't snow!</div>
<b>Thursday, April 18, 2013 - Happy Birthday to Chuck! Wish you were here. </b>Just before noon, I put the picture of the water in front of the front door up on my blogger blog then went upstairs to watch the news. Yikes!! Glad we live on top of hill. Tommy Skilling said that Aurora got 6.66 inches of rain. I'm not sure if that is actually a measurement IN Aurora or at the airport -- which is actually in Sugar Grove -- just south of us. This has been one weird weather year. see ya later, djbAndrew and Jarrett's Momhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14896155470205636393noreply@blogger.com0
