Freaky Friday

Are these aphids? Tiny little guys were on some English Ivy in the front yard.

Tuesday Photo Dump

Tyler and Emily having fun sitting on an old school desk...

I bought these last year at our church's ladies group yard sale....They are made of metal....I took two to the river and have four here in town.

Last week Richard helped cook for the Lion's Club monthly meeting. They also had chicken and about every Summertime side you can think of!

Sunflower that volunteered where we have zinnias planted by our garage.

Nature is truly amazing!

Emily heading into the forbidden zone on Saturday morning! 

She is so sweet!

Malinda and Tyler watching the river the evening after the poker run...water looks a little murky from all the boat traffic.

We had visitors at the cabin last weekend! My aunt and uncle from Nebraska and my cousin and his son from Oklahoma.  We had a fish fry Saturday evening and was sure neat to get to visit with them!

Tomato Overload

Last weekend I went over to pick some tomatoes and caught this guy having breakfast!

Part of last weekend's crop....picked a bunch more a couple days later and "gifted" some people in town with tomatoes! I also made some very good salsa.

Rather a messy eater! Ha!

Early Pumpkins

Some of the volunteer pumpkins are getting ripe too early....even some of the ones we planted are too. I wiped them down with a bleach solution and have stored them in the basement until fall weather...Hopefully that will make them last!

Wordless Wednesday....River Walk Edition

Three Rivers Annual Meeting

Friday night we took Tyler to the annual meeting for a local electric co-op. We had never attended the meeting before, so we thought we would check it out....There was a huge crowd! 

He liked these cut-out things..

A couple clowns were making balloon animals...He liked his dog!

Richard works with this guy's dad...They were giving bucket rides for kids....way in the sky! Tyler said that was too high for him...can't say I blame him! Ha!

He liked his blue yardstick too!

It was an interesting evening...saw lots of people we knew. Not sure we'll go back...at least not for the whole thing....We got there when it started and didn't have to stand in much of a line to eat...but the meal, I thought, was mediocre at best. We had a lot of down time between the meal and the meeting. The meeting itself wasn't too bad and at the end of it they gave away some really nice prizes. Of course we didn't win any! Ha! It was a nice evening to spend with Tyler. He was super well-behaved and a delight to have with us!
