Cabin Fever

This one will be much more light-hearted than the last post.  promise.

Last week we had CABIN FEVER big time!  Jeff and I chased the sunshine to NC on Saturday for Coon Dog Day in Saluda and then a stroll and lunch in Asheville.  No worries, we'll get back to enjoying Greenville when it's no longer water logged.


Poor Sunnie has had a rough time lately.  If it's not thundering, someone is shooting guns off.  Then there's July 4th. and 5th. and 6th. and 7th of fireworks.  It's thundering right now and Jeff had to carry the 50 pound pooch up the stairs to get her to stop hiding and go to bed.

Dr. Williams is working hard! I feel like Jeff has been working for forever because clinicals and classes seemed like he was "at work."  He's been at SSI for over a month now :)

This old house has been full for the summer!  James said, "The house feels like a college dorm."  That will change rapidly.  James and Mary Kathryn GET MARRIED this Saturday!  Two weeks after that, Millie will make the move to NC.  I am anticipating the empty nest right along with mom.

The garden is gushing with goodies.  We have had fresh vegetables with each meal.  Last night Millie and Evan picked our blackberries.  She washed them and put them straight into the dish to make a cobbler.  drooling!

When asked to contribute to this post, Jeff said, "It is never too late to enjoy a homemade biscuit!"  He is referring to his baking shinanigans at 10:30pm.  He makes the best biscuits, a Williams trait for sure!

Our grass was crazy tall.  I'm still learning to maneuver our beast of a lawn mower.  I set out to practice yesterday.  I did the majority of the yard before learning how to lower the blade.  Needless to say, I was back in the yard today actually cutting the grass.

I'd rather Cabin Fever over Bieber Fever anyday.
