Shower

I went, with 25 other ladies, to Kelsey's bridal shower yesterday afternoon.  It was held at the home of her future SIL.  She put on a delicious spread of finger foods and cupcakes.  Kelsey received some beautiful gifts, including the wedding shoes she wanted, but couldn't justify the price, to wear them  for one day.  Three of her girlfriends went together and bought them for her. 

There were many beautiful gifts.  Here are just a few pictures of some of them.

20 days to the main event!!!!

Zucchini

This is my entire zucchini crop.  It measures a full 2 inches and it froze last night!!  Don't know what happened with them this year.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

It started snowing at about 7p.m. last night.  This is 7:30a.m. this morning!

This is waaaaay too soon!  At least it didn't stick to the road so it shouldn't be around too long as it's only -1C!!  These pictures are for Sue in New Zealand.  I'm waiting to see her pictures as she is going to a place close to the mountains for the day.  

Birthday

Had a great birthday today.  We had a delicious supper at  The Keg!

It was so good and we are both stuffed, but so worth it!!

This & That

Saw this bug laying on its back in the mall the other day!!  Something to do with Beakerhead and science and engineering. 

 Beautiful day for a balloon ride, but I think it might have been a bit chilly up there!

 My latest bag of treat that DS#2 brought me from London.

 A last look at the roses before the frost gets them.

 The forecast is for rain the rest of the week, snow flurries on Thursday and a low of -2C!!  Yuck!!

Took a better picture of the bug from the upper level of the mall today.  It looks even creepier from this level!!!

Three meals a day!!

Isn't he beautiful!!  I was standing about 6 feet away from him. Too bad he's lost one of his antlers.  He came back to the crab apple tree across the street three times yesterday.  Hope he didn't get a stomach ache, or worse, after eating  all those apples!  Haven't seen him today, maybe he found some shade in this 40C heat.

Hail!!

We did get a few minutes warning so we put all the hanging pots under cover.

 These are the size of golf balls!!

 Two holes in a patio table.

Just a small sample of the foliage from different plants and bushes.

This hail was after a few seconds!!

 Most of my tomatoes are sheltered, thank goodness!

These three pictures are the roof over our deck with three holes smashed through.

The hail actually took the door bell thing off our door and it ended up on the driveway. We have a thermometer, like a clock, on our garage, that was smashed.
After a terrible winter with so much snow and now with a summer full of hail storms, this is getting really tiresome, to say the least.
At least our vehicles were in the garage.  Our neighbour doesn't have a garage so her 2018 vehicle is now full of dents.
What next?!!!
