Still waiting for the big ones to turn red. 

Cherry Tomatoes growing out of the cage. 

This cage needs to be twice as big as it is. Next year!!! Chesley wants to feed the world. 

Our view while tending the tomatoes.

 I love this picture. One bloomed rose then one bud and the new baby buds.

My Green thumb husband, thanks you for our beautiful back yard.

Day 4 of Fiesta Weekend

Sunday morning at Riverside Church in Bulverde, TX. 

This is the church that Jenny goes to.

 Stacy and Nicole (not pictured because she became sick) shared Solace for the Children LA with Riverside Church. 

 Carrie, Gina, and Stacy

 Jenny introduced Stacy in the first service. Courtney Garrison introduced her to the second service. There was a video that showed the highlights of Solace for the Children after Stacy talked to the congregation. 

It was a very special service with all three of my daughters there praying and sharing their love and concern of others. We all prayed together and praised the Lord. Stacy did a wonderful heart felt job explaining the impact the program has on her family and community. 

After the second church service we headed to Jenny's carriage house or barndominium. 

She gave the girls a tour of her studio and the place and the grounds.

 This is Jenny's studio. Coffee, Corks, and Canvas. 

 Jenny's room. Gina was "floored with the clever idea of the chair as Jenny's end table. :)

 All wearing the Solace for the children t-shirts.

 Jenny gave us a tour in the jeep. We felt like we were on a safari. 

This was all unexpected and so the girls were a little at ahh and loved the special treat.

Jenny explaining how she is going to feed the goats some treats and suddenly they were surrounded by goats. Look at Stacy. :)

 Much to Stacy's surprise the donkey come by to say hey. See the goat in bottom right? She's going to have a baby!!!!

 Below is the Lama getting cool in the heat of the day.

 After the tour of Jenny's living quarters and grounds we went to the Loft to show the girls where and what the Loft are all about. 

 Girls all left Sunday night for CO and CA. 

What a fun trip they had. They got to see where each member of Stacy's family lived and worshiped and in Jenny's case,  worked.

Day 3 of Fiesta Weekend

NIOSA didn't slow these girls down one bit. 

Only the best for our guests. 1st Class. Notice the Long Horns on the limo. (how perfect for out of town guests)

Jenny, Jessica, and Stacy lined up a day at the Bending Branch Winery in Comfort TX. 

I had to follow the girls to the meeting place to get pictures of the Limo etc. Such a mom! 

Here are the girls inside the limo. Jenny was taught how to work the music and there was a cooler with snacks for the ride out. Once again this limo is full of beautiful girls. 

Little more of the limo and the girls at the Winery.

 Only picture I have of the girls together. 

After the winery the girls went to Fralos where their cars were. Pizza dinner then home. 

Hoping the girls will post more pictures at the winery. ?

Day 2 of Fiesta

Breakfast Taco Bar at Jessica's house. 

No pictures of breakfast. So far the CA girls have had margarita's, mexican food, bonded, seen Jessica's house and meet more friends.

This picture is of the girls all ready for the a waited event: NIOSA. 

Perfect attire and ready to enjoy the celebration and food.

 Roasted corn. I didn't even know they had roasted corn at NIOSA. 

 Girls meet up with some of Jessica and Stacy's friends.

Great group picture girls. 

NIOSA is a little different since high school, No?

 Now we get it Stacy. NIOSA is so fun.

 Girls headed to the river to not only see it but hear some music.

The night continued to be a fun one.

 Nicole and Stacy tried Mountain Oysters. ??? Ask them what they are. 

 Gina, Stacy and Kristen dancing on the San Antonio River.

 Home, bed and day three coming up. 

Day One of FIESTA (4th Annual)

Our one night celebration turned into a 4 day celebration. Stacy  brought three of her friends here to experience FIESTA because they have heard so much about it. 

We started off on the patio at La Fonda on Main, with Margarita's and chips. Whole lot of pretty sitting at that table along with the good looking Margarita's.  

Chesley and I, O so serious. ?? Have to count who ever took the picture. 1 2 3 then we smile. :)

Next stop was the Fiesta Store on Main.

Girls are beginning to see the excitement in San Antonio.

Quick thinking of older sister, Jenny, and she turned right in front of "the boots" What would a trip to San Antonio be without a picture on the boots?

The girls each got a welcome bag with T-shirts and other Fiesta goodies.

The girls loved sitting on the porch catching up on each others life without children around. They all used to live in El Segundo but two of the girls have moved to different places so it was a reunion as well.

Fiesta dinner request from Stacy. Chicken Enchilada Dinner.

Your wish is my command. 

Sister loving sister with the traditional smashing of the cascarones or confetti filled eggs on the head. Yes confetti is in the hollow out dyed eggs and on my floor and in hair and by end of the weekend, confetti was everywhere. FIESTA FUN! 

Happy Fiesta Stacy!

After the famous "Buffalo chips" Two ch. chip cookies with vanilla ice cream between them this girls CRASHED into bed and were out like a light. 8:30 pm their time.

O girls this was just day one. 

Next morning was Breakfast Taco Bar at sister Jessica's house. Hoping she'll post pictures. I stayed home.

So there is day one and I'll post as much of day 2 that I have, soon.
