Snapshots: Flowers, Tea, and a Breakdown

I mentioned on Friday that we hosted a tea party this week for Poppy's friends. The girls all dressed up and it was very, very cute. 


Poppy had this fabulous hat sent by the MiL that was perfect for a tea party.

We have flowers finally appearing in different places.


Hollyhocks!


Cactus! (And sun tea.)


And a single asiatic lily.

A. took the big truck to the hay place 90 miles away on Wednesday, where the truck wouldn't start again. He had already paid for and loaded his hay, so he had to unload it all and call for a wrecker. He had the truck towed to a mechanic there in the city, where they told him they couldn't even look at it for three weeks. So he decided to have it towed to the mechanic near our house. 

The wrecker guy actually hauled the truck back to the hay place, loaded the hay into the truck, and hauled the whole thing back here.


Hay on truck on truck.

Unfortunately, we learned that the mechanic is closing down his shop next week. Which means the nearest mechanic is now 60 miles away. 

Booooo.

A. thinks he can fix the truck, but it's still a bummer not to have the option of delegating mechanical things.

There you have it! My life, snapshotted.

What a charming tea party hostess!
And that's a bummer about the truck. Hopefully with the right parts and YouTube videos, he can do the repairs easily!

Perfect tea party attire. I hate when stuff like that happens to me...(trucks).

That's a good wrecker guy to help get the hay home. - Ringo
