Some overdue photos!

Well, here it is finally, the pictures from our home tour. It was kinda fun to dress-up, the morning of the tour I even had somebody put my hair into a bun too. Oh and I forgot to mention earlier that our flowers looked beautiful too. We had an arrangement on our dinning room table where they put flowers into an old teapot of my Grandmother's, an arrangement on our kitchen island, and roses in our wash basin pitcher that my Grandpa gave to me. I also stuck some flowers in a couple of vases in Rose E's room, they seemed to add a lot. We are still talking about all of the comments that people said and everywhere we go somebody seems to comment about the tour. The next picture is of the Red Hat Society ladies who helped us that day, we where grateful for them that is for sure.

Slowly but surely we are trying to get back into some normalcy here now that it is all done (Phew) now we just have to got through all of the modern stuff that we hauled into our basement! It was nice because a couple days after the tour we met Emily, Kirsten, Cale, and Brady at the park. The kids really seemed to have a good time together.

Yesterday too my parents came for a visit. On Thursday we took a jaunt up to Copper Harbor and had a nice meal at the Lodge which is where this picture was taken and then enjoyed the scenery as we drove around. The picture of Jeff and Walter was taken along the roadside where we walked in the sand along Lake Superior. Then today Walter was beside himself that he and Daddy got to take Papa A.J on a ride on the Ranger four wheeler. It sounded like they had lots of fun together.

The kids sure have been keeping us entertained as usual! Walter is now coming up with ways to tease us, little trickster. Anyway he was excited the other day that we where able to pick tomatoes, broccoli, and a green pepper out of our garden to eat. At supper time then as we where eating the cooked broccoli he turned to us and said "you a broccoli, you a broccoli, you a broccoli but me is not, me gonna eat you all up." Goof. Rose E has been keeping us smiling too. She is still saying "see ya" when she plays peek a boo, but is also saying "bye bye" after the " see ya" as she covers her eyes. The smiles and laughs never stop coming in this household!
