\"Razr<\/a>We’ve had a visitor for the past few days. The boxer-mix puppy that belongs to one of our daughters and her two sons\u00a0\u2014\u00a0our grandsons, of course\u00a0\u2014\u00a0was visiting from Friday until this afternoon. He’s still quite young and very playful, which intimidated our little Bisou a bit, but\u00a0\u2014\u00a0on the whole\u00a0\u2014\u00a0they got along pretty well. She laid down a few rules, and he absolutely obeyed them. LOL! It was so comical to see her walk completely under him, and I really wish I could have caught a photo of that, but neither of them cooperated. This was the only time I could catch both of them at the same time. Look at those long<\/strong> legs on Razr!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

These days\u00a0I’m working on a project in embroidery, and there’s not a lot to show yet. Stay tuned.<\/p>\n

This afternoon I took a couple of photos of some of our hibiscus, which are happily blooming. I missed showing you the yellow ones, which are regrouping at the moment, but these are awfully pretty, too. \ud83d\ude42 If you look carefully, you may see\u00a0some as-yet-unripe tomatoes on a “volunteer” plant among the hibiscus. We’re really enjoying the wonderful tomatoes my husband grows in his vegetable garden!<\/p>\n
