Springtime ?

It’s been a crazy Spring, was 80 last week, but mostly looks like this !

Cold and rain/snow mix for the last week !

Between doing our  taxes and my mom’s estate taxes, selling her home, trips here and there, so many other things have happened these last few months and I’m finally getting around for an update/catch up.

Sadly, my sister Cheryl Lohrke Kolling passed away Feb 20th, two days before her 55th birthday

Started with a stroke around Thanksgiving.

She was buried close by in Santaquin, UT

We received the news from my sister Ellen, while we were at Disneyland  in line for “Peter Pan”

Kolling Family, Santaquin City Cemetery

Cheryl, we miss your smile !

We loaded Splash Mountain and when we got back there was no one in line so we stayed seated and went again !

We’ve been working on the yard and garden (weather permitting) and are anxious to get the veggies going !

First year for starting seedlings

I’ve been placing rocks and built another raised garden box.

Now getting ready to replace the old bark with new. We’ll need 11 cubic yards !

Finished garden project will be in the next Blog !
