We got a new puppy!

 The girls were playing with him so I tried to snap a few pictures.

Here he is:

 Except Trudy now knows what to do when a camera comes out.

So we had to try a different time.

Our last puppy, Gill, had a fatal attraction to chasing cars. So we were a few months without a dog. But then we found Laramie. Getting him was an adventure in itself, but we made it and so far he's been a pretty good dog.

Picking Dandelions

I love Trudy's bouquet.

According to the top three,

Daniel and Eda looked old-fashioned. Daniel because he had suspenders. Eda because she had curls. So I made the picture sepia and Eda didn't like it because it didn't look blue enough.

Kerplunk!

My sister made an extra large version of Kerplunk for a family reunion. Before too many people showed up I took a picture of Trudy and Eda trying to put it back together. After people showed up I visited instead of taking pictures.

Discovering the Hydrant

Notice the beautiful scenery

ignore the garbage.

We were at the dump. Picking stuff up. Because that's the kind of thing we (meaning Ray) do.
