These are the prettiest little spacer beads for a beading project. I'm making some really lovely stuff! They will be gifts though, so I can't show them yet.

Sweet Erin's baby belly!

The Friends of Neil Diamond sent Pam two of these cool calendars. She gave one to me! It's taped to the office door so I can see it as I type this.

Our young neighbor was having trouble with her car window not staying up. She came to Larry for help. Here he is saving the day!

Our router was shot. This is the new one. It makes me want to do a happy dance!

August 26, 2008

Our beautiful brand new program. It's more like a book of his life. I need another concert! One is never enough. 

August 25, 2008

Remember all those DVDs we sent out for pageant referrals? Here are 250 more that are headed out to the post office. We had to put the address labels and return address labels on them, stuff the envelopes, seal them and stamp them. Then haul them off to be mailed!

Little hands with some yummy refreshments after a baptism

Happy Birthday, Larry! He is just so cute.

August 22, 2008

Here is Harley again, chewing on a rope toy that Larry made for him. It seems that our summer afternoons include our little neighbor puppy!

August 21, 2008

Our neighbors Marissa and Harley the baby dog, enjoying a summer afternoon with Larry in our backyard. My mother crocheted that afghan probably 30 years ago.

 Pam, my best and eternal friend in all the world, and I, taking our mirror shot once again. We have done this over the years, and this one was right before the Neil Diamond concert in Albany

I got a chocolate chip stain on my robe that wouldn't come out so I ironed on a patch. I LIKE it!

August 18, 2008

This is Natalie and her mother. She had just blown me a kiss and grinned so big! I helped that baby be born and now she's blowing me kisses. How cool is that?

August 17, 2008

This cat is so dang cute. She talks and talks. Here she is in the porch, howling for some supper.

August 16, 2008

I think I like this beading thing. 

August 15, 2008

After this terrible week, including the near accident and family illnesses, Larry took me to the temple and then to the Apple store!

August 14, 2008

Car repair just about killed us today. It wasn't from the near accident though. It was just other stuff.

August 13, 2008

Okay I did it again. This time I went with my friend Gail. She loved it, too!

August 12, 2008

This is Harley, our little dog neighbor. He's a baby and learning lots of new things. He loves people. Larry is in heaven having a dog next door! They play so cute together.

August 11, 2008

Guess what movie I saw today with my cousins?!!! It was so incredibly fun that I was bouncing in my seat!

August 10, 2008

Are these beautiful or what? Black-eyed Susans next to some coneflowers make a pretty color combination. I like our garden!

August 9, 2008

My cousin Chuck. He and I were cutting up fruit at our cousins reunion day picnic in Canandaigua. I love this picture. It is so Chuck.

August 8, 2008

Remember the stacks and stacks of DVDs we had been sending out for pageant requests? They are beginning to come back saying "no such address."  WHAT???

August 7, 2008

We have had so much rain that we have little bitty mushrooms growing in the gardens

August 6, 2008

Larry is off to Madison again and I am MISSING him again so in honor of my good husband, here is a picture of a very special gift from him. He gave this to me years and years ago. It's a little mouse family. My father and grandfather were shoe repairmen, so Larry thought I would like it. I love it.

August 5, 2008

Our first peppers from our garden! They smell very yummy and fresh.

August 4, 2008

My cousin Judi and I went to a beading class and we made bracelets and earrings!

August 3, 2008

The parsley and mint are taking off! We will be overrun! You don't want to even SEE the basil. 

August 2, 2008

These are our new curtains in the dining room. I love them. I especially love the tieback braid. It makes me oh so happy!

August 1, 2008

After supper tonight, Larry took a blanket outside and we flopped down and read together. The weather was absolutely perfect. So I grabbed the camera and took a few pictures while lying on my back. I like this one of the sun shining through the leaves.

Red E. Fox and my boss Marjorie at our annual Disaster and Emergency Services picnic. We had lots of fun!
